Rep. Corrine Brown (D-Fla.) sparked a congressional manners debate after she shouted "Shame on Republicans" during a discussion of GOP farm legislation on the House floor Thursday.
 
Brown's was one of many tirades from Democrats angry that Republican leaders had omitted food stamps from their traditional place alongside agriculture subsidies in a bill that passed Thursday afternoon.
 

"Mitt Romney was right," she said. "You all do not care about the 47 percent. Shame on you!"

Entitlement Resentment??

Janina Riley noticed a woman muttering behind her in the checkout line as she paid for food at a Giant Eagle grocery store in Pittsburgh last April.
 
"I can't believe she's buying that big-ass cake with food stamps," the woman said, according to Riley.
 
Riley, 19, had just used a government-issued debit card to pay for most of her groceries, which included a cake for her son that said "Happy First Birthday Xavier" in a theme from the movie "Cars." She glared at the women for a second, then decided to confront her.
 

 

"I was just like, 'Shut the "F" up,'" Riley said. "You don't know what I'm doing with these food stamps."
