1. Of course he won't answer.
He is a coward and knows his far out stupid statement is trashy. So is his mentor sarah.

2. Did he just say "F" you to Alaskans?
Forty percent of Alaskans are dependent on Federal funding. Joe wants to cut them off.

3. The teabaggers all want to go back to the days of "Leave it to Beaver"...
Can we simply go back to 1958 and drop this state of loons out of the union? I have so had it with this "mountain man/red neck/grizzly momma-mentality". I know that ain't gonna happen..but Jesus...do we all have to be exposed to this nonsense of lunacy. Are the days so damn short and cold up there that their brains freeze a little more permanently each year?

4. The GOP Solution -- let people starve to death
How could anyone vote for this twit? What do you want to bet he started crowing about his Christian values after this non-answer about what to do with 43 million people living in poverty.

5. Preamble to the Constitution says "promote the general WELFARE" -- it must be unconstitutional!!!!




http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preamble_to_the_United_States_Constitution



"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."


(Spelling is as it was in the original preamble, spellings were a bit different back then. Capitalizations are as in the original preamble.)


I can't BELIEVE it! The founding fathers were COMMUNISTS!!!!!!

Who stuck in WELFARE into the Constitution?! Obviously some librul anarchist commie pinko fluoridating soshlist Muslim DERMACRIT leftwing Acorn hippie minorities!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Constitution is unconstitutional!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

7. Actually Article 1 Section 8 is the important one
The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;

Provide for the common defense and general welfare.

It was ruled by the courts in 1937 the unemployment insurance fell under general welfare.

Miller doesn't know what he is talking about.

6. Oh for Christ's sake Miller, answer the damn question !
He has no plan to get people back to work and doesn't give a cottonpicken' about his fellow Americans. The only thing he has to offer is his ambition for a power position.
