Fox News host mocks food stamps: ‘Do you know how fabulous I’d look? I’d be so skinny’
Fox News host Andrea Tantaros on Wednesday seemed to be mocking the millions of hungry Americans who are forced to used food stamps when she suggested that the program would make for a great diet plan.
During a Thanksgiving-eve segment on Fox Business, host Stuart Varney noted that Newark Mayor Cory Booker had accepted a challenge to live on food stamps for a week.
“Could you like on 133 bucks a month for food?” Varney asked Tantaros, who co-hosts Fox News’ The Five.
“I should try it because, do you know how fabulous I’d look?” she replied. “I mean, the camera adds ten pounds. It really does. I would be looking great.”
According to the USDA, 50.1 million Americans lived with food insecurity in 2011. Over 57 percent of those households participated in federal food assistance programs.

Only a moron would say that conservatives don't care about the less fortunate. A statement like that reveals deep ignorance. You obviously are ignoranct of all the food pantrys run by churches and inner city missions that feed thousands in big cities every day.
