The Grimmers, Grimly

While it is undeniably interesting that Rick Perry lacks both the grammar and the knowledge to discuss the Supreme Court, I find it incredible that no one has asked him about the violent death of a woman and her two young children in a Texas 'Food Stamp' office.

Whether or not Perry is able to remember who sits on the Supreme Court, although demonstrative of his profound ignorance and disinterest, is nothing compared to his inability to comment on, or relate to, a mother (we presume he had one himself) who killed herself and her son (he undoubtedly was once one of those as well) as her appication for food stamps was rejected - once again.

To mention the violent death of a mother and her two children  might call into question the way Texas handles food stamps, as well as their delivery of social services and their "gun control" regulations.   The state did find it inappropriate for her to be raising and home-schooling her kids in a makeshift tent on a South Texas beach.  So, she was pushed off the beach, but her "right" to own guns was not to be abridged.

At least Rachelle Grimmer's fight for food stamps is finally resolved. She, and her two kids, are dead now. 

And Rick Perry's State of Texas has again reduced its welfare rolls.

Timothy Grimmer

So what do we think are the odds of any of the Republican candidates, especially Rick Perry, being questioned at any of the "debates" this weekend, about the death of Timothy Grimmer, or of his  sister Ramie.

Their mother shot them, killing them, after once again having her application for food stamps rejected by the State of Texas. She then shot herself.

 "In 2010 the department received a possible neglect report after Rachelle Grimmer and her two children were found living in a tent on a South Texas beach. Investigators found no evidence of neglect and closed the case, spokesman Patrick Crimmins said."

 

R.I.P. Rachelle, Ramie & Timothy Grimmer.

Rot In Hell Rick Perry, and the entire Republican Party.
