Despite texts that show Favre sought to keep his receipt of the funds confidential, Favre has said he didn’t know the money came from federal funds intended for poor people. He’s paid the money back, but he’s being sued by the state of Mississippi for hundreds of thousands of dollars in interest that accrued on the money he received. Favre hasn’t been accused of any criminal wrongdoing.

So they could easily of have funded this themselves, but just rather steal public funds because "free money"? Sounds like a so called "welfare queen" to me.

Woah there, Brett Favre is not a "welfare queen". That would imply that Brett identifies as a women. According to the bullshit pushed by conservatives that can't happen. So that makes Brett Favre a "welfare sponge", "welfare fraud", "king of collecting welfare", "thief", "a hypocritical, piece of shit, who is only collecting welfare cause they need it. Every one is just a welfare bum".

The quotation marks did most of the lifting there, and it's more of an anecdote of their own projections against themselves. They assume these "welfare queens" are driving around in high end cars and living luxurious lifestyles on the governments dollar, while they are the ones doing such. Sorry if there was any confusion. I agree with all the statements you have stated against Brett Farve though, they are the scum of the system they wish to project onto others.
