Henrietta Hughes was offered a home by Chene Thompson, wife of State Representative Nick Thompson, who heard the homeless womans pleas for help to President Obama before a local and national crowd.
The house is in LaBelle, the first home [Chene] Thompson bought after law school. She told Hughes, Just give me the opportunity to help you.
Hughes broke down in front of thousands when she told the president that she and her son have been homeless for more than a year. They are living in a pickup truck.

I certainly hope so!
Some high-level panhandling by Henrietta
Cool! Plenty of room in the bed for their stuff. Lot more than in a car. Get a nice sheet of plastic to keep things dry and you've got it made.
Dear “Present” Obama:
I already have a house (actually the bank owns it). However, I absolutely NEED the following:
New roof
Kitchen remodel
Bathroom remodel
Remington 700 in 30/06 with a good scope
Thanks Present Obama! You’ve given us hope for change!
Probably the same politician that supplied the free house.
"An I gots to clean it and take care it? Sheehit, honey! What you think ah am?"
This might get interesting. Socialism requires a everybodys the same thing to work properly. Obama just gave to one of his children, now the rest of them are going to have a temper tantrum and want theirs. And they are much less polite than we are while we get screwed. we hold still and everything. Woe to obama if he cant provide for ALL his children of the corn.........
Think Avita. Its coming.
Every rally is followed by 18 wheelers loaded with freebies and Obamas up on stage tossing toasters and gift cards to the crying and pleading throngs!
Never say it cant get any worse.
Think the “Starnesville” section of Atlas Shrugged.
Well tonight begins my peaceful prayer to mecca that the house burns down and that she has to try to find a job like I’ve been doing daily for the last four months..my dog and I live off of noodles eggs and free internet at panera bread..but I like doin it the way americans used to do it..by busting my ass...and just kidding bout the mecca comment..that rat infested city can burn too
I haven’t investigated this yet (may have to. Layoffs yesterday where I work, but they didn’t get me . I know too much!), but a freeper posted various job search sites here:

***In the day and age of HUD and low income housing, how is it a person winds up homeless again?
The libs have been at this for quite a few decades now - why hasnt homelessness been eradicated yet?***
TWO excellent questions.

Why is that white guy kissing her? Oh, wait...

That's the Florida state bird.
“all freepers will be persecuted in the near future”
