"Republicans and Democrats, let's all get together, review that umbers don't lie. Under the food stamp president, spending increased by more than $19 billion. The number of people using the program increased by 11 million people and the amount of the benefit increased by a historic amount not seen in the last 30 years," Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-IL) said on the House floor.
"We may not like the fact, but sometimes the truth hurts," he said. "And here we have him, the food stamp president of the United States. Yes, George W. Bush is the food stamp President of the United States. Under the food stamp President George W. Bush we spent more money, had more recipients and gave each recipient more money for food."
