I'm always touched by how the use of corn for ethanol draws forth from our right-wing brethren a not previously conspicuous concern for the poor.

Are you for the food stamp program? Medicaid? Section 8 Housing? Americans with Disabilities Act? Housing for the homeless? Social Security for disabled persons no matter their age? School lunches? School breakfasts?

If you can say no to any of those, I'd have to suspect that your "concern" is suspect.

Thats a deceitful straw man argument mark, you should be deeply ashamed of yourself

No one is calling for an end to agricultural aid, but a temporary moratorium on the presidents mandating that food be used for fuel in a time of shortage due to severe drought is a common sense measure that I am sure even Iowans could understand, and get on board with

How is this even a partisan issue

You do understand, dont you, that it s not federally mandated that fuel for vehicles have ethanol in it?
I mean, I bought a tank of 100% gas today. My town only has about 13,000 people and there are 5 stations that sell it.

It's a state thing. If you have such a hardon, write your governor.
