In other news, according to 2010 census data, one in five American children now live in poverty. The child poverty rate rose by one million between 2009 and 2010.

Meanwhile, Paul Ryan’s plan to address inequality would actually increase inequality. The man is a genius.

Another GOP debate took place today in Iowa. The focus of which will be “social issues,” which means god, guns, gays, and abortion. Expect a highlight reel tomorrow.

    I really don’t know what the GOP was thinking in scheduling debates almost weekly. Every debate as just been an even bigger clown show than the last.

    The poverty rate makes me want to go all West Wing. Here’s Jed Bartlet…excuse me…President Bartlet on childhood poverty: http://youtu.be/HO1NRndAf8g?t=46s

      Good lord, I didn’t feel sorry for her at all. She was trying to manufacture some drama, and by god she got some.

      These UC Davis students are the real deal.

    Paul Ryan is completely clueless about economics and economic inequality. For him it’s nothing but his own self interest. The more money that scum like the Koch Roach Brothers have, the more they will give to scum like Ryan for campaign contributions. The philosophy of Objectivism that Ayn Rand pulled out of her ass and now pushed by asshole hypocrits like Ryan has been thoroughly discredited yet Ryan acts as if it is going to save US all from President Obama.

    Excuse me, Representative Ryan, I need to be rescued from shitheads like you, not from honorable people like President Obama.
