We all know them. People that abuse the system. People that work a few months of the year, just long enough to qualify for unemployment, and then jump on the unemployment bandwagon. Those that get food stamps to support their families despite being able bodied, often educated and capable of work. And, of course, the people that work “under the table” while receiving government aid intended for the truly needy.
One such image sticks in our minds from a visit last year to a local softball game. Across the street was a truck distributing food for the needy. A brand new Mercedes pulled up and out popped a couple that walked over and jumped in line. How someone driving a $60,000.00 car qualifies for free food is beyond our imagination, but somehow these people find any way they can to abuse the system.
During Obama’s campaign to promote his stimulus package, he staged an event with a woman, Henrietta Hughes, who, as it turns out, appears to be anything but truly needy. Henrietta was given an audience with Obama to beg for a home. When aid was provided via the offer of free rent by an opportunistic politician, the liberal press spouted that Henrietta was actually given a free home and implied it came from Obama. The lie has propagated through the liberal media and, quite honestly, it nauseated us because it was so obviously staged and such a distorted lie. Well, as it turns out, the lie didn’t end there.

Heads up, remember the ACORN break-in for poor oppressed Donna Hanks in Baltimore? Guess what... another scammer.

Henrietta Hughes is a hero. Joe the Plumber is evil. Pretty much sums up America 2009.
Have you seen this?
The fact that the liberals have not assailed Santelli makes me suspicious of him.
Could we see Santelli do a mea culpa in another week or so?
Democrats are such liars - but they're safe - the MSM NEVER takes a close look at dems.
“Otherwise known as a leach. A blood sucker.”
Heros to the media and our current leadership in DC. It is amazing to me how blatent these examples are, yet they are held up as shining examples of America. At the same time, the pinnacles of success are continually dragged through the media gutters and demonized in the attempt to push envy in the masses.
Why do the Dems keep pulling this nonsense. First, it was Gore with his winnebago, can collecting old lady . . . .
Sick bastards (excuse my English).

has this been verified by any other source yet?

"This is not the Henrietta Hughes that I knew."

“Oh good lord. This is just like Tamarla Owens. The liberals all complain that her brat shot up Buell Elementary because he was a poor welfare child and that his mother was evicted and worked 70 hrs a week. They tried to blame welfare reform and the 2nd amendment as well as those mean republicans. In reality Tamarla was a drug dealer, she got over a thousand a month in welfare not including food stamps, the rent was only 400 a month and she qualified for free housing. The kid was a bully and he lived in a crack house full of criminals. The gun he used was an illegal street weapon.”
..... Yeah, but surely they vote straight Democrat so we need to pity them .... (/sarc)
