Wait... Did he just say that we need to stop sending Ag aid and start buying commodities

5. We're a few minutes behind on Tivo... but my Inlaws are farmers.
They were hurt bad this spring, and no relief. And this is his response to the sacrifices our small farmers make? Fucking pig!

6. Brilliant idea! Use even MORE petroleum to import pesticide-drenched food...
...from poor nations with no regulations! Our food will be less fresh, more expensive and destructive to the environment! A republican's dream scenario!
