Among the free entitlements offered to lower-income individuals and those less fortunate are free cell phones subsidized by tax payments from the middle class. The program, originally designed under President Ronald Reagan and pushed into the mainstream by President George Bush, has exploded under President Obama with over 13 million phones issued to “qualified” individuals in 2014 alone. The phones are supposed to give people who would otherwise not be able to afford them a lifeline to emergency services and loved ones.
But according to an undercover report by CBS News, the Lifeline Wireless program is plagued by outrageous levels of fraud.
If you own a cellphone, you pay for the free phones and their wireless plans via a monthly tax on your cellphone called the Universal Service Tax. Although the Lifeline wireless program has been around since 2005 and started under President George W. Bush, it ballooned under President Obama and the phones are often referred to as Obamaphones.
To qualify for one of the cellphone plans, you have to be low income — on food stamps, Medicaid, housing assistance or some other government program.
But multiple times a CBS4 producer and reporter found phone agents in Denver circumventing strict government rules to ensure that only the truly needy get the free phones.
…
In one case a Total Call agent used someone else’s food stamp card to provide eligibility for a CBS4 producer. On another occasion another Total Call agent said it would be perfectly fine to use a friend’s food stamp card to establish eligibility and obtain a free phone.
…
The company is asking the public to let it know of any improper activity with regard to Lifeline applications submitted to Total Call.
Of course, Total Call would have probably preferred to continue shipping phones and service plans without these pesky investigations because it was a financial boon for their company. Under the Obamaphone plan everyone makes money. Well, almost everyone, except for the people who actually have to pay for them through forced mandates.
In 2012 we noted that the government set aside $2.4 billion for the Lifeline Wireless program for a single year worth of phones and monthly plan payments. As we predicted then, and as is normally the case when government is involved in managing any sort of social program, those hard-earned taxpayer dollars would be redistributed to millions of people who don’t actually require the service or use it for what it was designed to be used for.
Over $2.4 billion in freshly printed dollars will be directed towards the program, which aims to connect tens of millions of poverty stricken Americans to the digital grid.
While we realize that some of those individuals, like those who cannot work for medical reasons for example, need access to phones in the event of an emergency, we can’t help but wonder how many millions of people like Duane Brooks, Jr. will be able to make calls, send text messages, and update their Facebook profiles instantly at the expense of others.
Case in point. Here’s Duane Brook, Jr., an able-bodied adult fully capable of working a job, yet he collects hundreds of dollars from the government, pays no rent and spends the money “on himself” instead of actually doing something productive with it:
When you get your cell phone bill next month, take a look at the taxes you’re paying. You paid for those 13 million phones distributed to the “truly needy” last year. Moreover, when you do your personal income taxes this year and because you didn’t have health insurance last year as mandated under the Patient Affordable Care Act, you’ll be paying a tax of $95 or 1% of your income (whichever is higher) just so people like Duane can have a free cell phone, free rent, a free Obamaphone and, of course, affordable health insurance (that you yourself cannot afford because you are so well off).
Of course, we knew this was coming and President Obama said it himself to our friend Joe ‘The Plumber’ Wurzelbacher during the run-up to his election:
It’s not that I want to punish your success. I just wanna make sure that everybody who is behind you… that they’ve got a chance at success too. I think that when you spread the wealth around, it’s good for everybody.
It was all fun and games and great talking points for the media and Obama’s disciples at the time. Eqaulity and all that – you know.
But now, eight years later, we see just how “good for everybody” Mr. Obama’s policies really are.
Turns out they’re great for people who get, as Vice President Joe Biden recently said, “free stuff” from the White House.
Unfortunately, free stuff isn’t actually free and someone – YOU – has to pay for it.

Yada, yada, yada, the fact remains that the Muslim-Marxist jihadist will veto anything that he pleases and the turkey-necked ‘Bitch’ McConnell and his partner in treason, that being Crybaby, pink ribbon wearing Boehner know that it will appear as if they are really trying to thwart the new Hitler by passing these useless bills that will be vetoed! He should and MUST bring IMPEACHMENT proceedings forward against the CALIPH Obaa-baa-ma if he is truly intent on saving all of ‘US’ from the oncomming jihad that ‘BE-HEADED’ our way! Damn, he keeps aiding and abetting our enemy, ISLAMIC TERRORISTS – yes, I’ll say it for him – by releasing them so that they can re-engage us! Come on sheeple, wake up and smell the coffee, he’s ONE OF THEM, shame on AMERIKA for not seeing that history is being repeated as the new Hitler is on the scene! REVOLUTION will be the SOLUTION! mInr, NSA!
I could not say it better. I am now wondering why I was so happy that the republicans won the senate and the house. Seems we just gained more rhinos. How do we win this war against a Muslim resident and a bunch of candy ass politicians?

This is Freedom of Speech? Really! AE says “Cunts should keep their stupid opinios to themselves” Yes AE your truly a believer of Free Speech and your vocabulary shows it. Sure, we should be able to yell fire in a crowded theater, just for the fun of it.Trekker Out.
The 1st Amendment DOES protect yelling fire in a theater. If idiots react hysterically that’s their problem. The rights of the individual outweigh the needs of the many.

Some of you stupid old fuckheads are still babbling away about the XL pipeline.
Congress voted AGAINST legislation restricting pipline jobs to Amerikkkan citizens; restricting the gas pumped through the line to gas refined in Amerikkka. You idiots get it??? This horseshit about Amerikkkan jobs is, as usual, a big fucking bullshit clown show to trick you stupid old fuckers into voting away Amerikkan sovereignty to the international banksters.
What did you expect? Stupid fucking old people.
The script is predictable.
@Acid,
Hold on a minute kiddo, Keystone is not about jobs in the least. Rather, it is about Canadian Tar Sands oil, Warren Buffet’s railways, and Hydraulic Fracturing in Canada.
Canadian oil needs a method to get oil from the tar sands to Louisiana in order for them to compete on the global market.
Warren Buffet bought up the railways thinking he would have a monopoly on moving Canadian Oil from the northern border down to Louisiana. If Keystone is a go, he loses his shirt because he longer is the only game in town.
If Keystone isn’t built, the Canadian Oil monopoly (government influence) in Canada won’t permit Hydraulic Fracturing because that would all but decimate oil production in the Canadian Tar Sands.
North Dakota oil benefits from the pipeline because now they have three methods by which they can oil to the world markets, rail, truck, and the pipeline.
In my opinion, all the EPA crap about the pipeline is a proxy for Buffet’s (Berkshire) rail investment.
Bottom Line: Keystone is a bit more complex than first meets the eye.
I’m going off the Grid in every way possible. Closing on some land next month, will have my own well and pump running off Solar Pannels, will have a side hand pump off the main well with a check valve. Going to get a few 275 gal tanks to store fresh drinking water with filter and ROI system. My own septic tank, going to build a cabin with Solar and the whole place is surrounded by water on 3 sides including a fresh water pond which I own most of it that feeds into wide canals into a fresh water river. Plenty of woods to gather heating wood for a wood stove. Hamm Radio antena. Satellite TV and MiFi Internet. Raise a few goats to eat the thick vegitation, some chickens, and enjoy the fresh air and FL sunshine. I am so over all this Commie Gov BS. Put all of the land into a Land Trust even the IRS cannot put a lien on it. Look into that great tool to preserve your wealth. Put all your wealth into a trust, and nobody can touch it. Be smart people, its going to be a rough few years coming up..,
Best not forget air conditioning.
Hope you have some weapons stored to protect yourself as well. All us folks in my area do. You are right about rough times ahead. Good luck to you and yours.

Hydraulic Fracturing
How much “fracturing” can be done before the earth breaks apart?
WOW – and how long before the oil tankers and other ships fall off the end of the earth?
We already have earthquakes from it, tho they try to cover it up
Surprised more people don’t see that yet
@Acid Etch(micro penis): Did you forget than two old people are responsible for your stupid ASS!!!!
Perfect example of why some species eat their young!

Jim, if acid was really God, I’d rather go to hell.
Acid Etch {Huge DICKHEAD], I agree with your point about Hollywood morons but don’t start stereotyping women. Also, on the XL pipeline you don’t know what you’re talking about. This old fart is telling you to go f#$% yourself!
SILVER- Silver crashed down over a dollar today. Weeeeeeeeee

I watch those numbers closely, and I am ready to get me some when it gets a bit lower.
I see the trolls are red thumbing again….
You keep posting what you want Acid, these old people don’t like freedom of speech, as a they send their kids to public schools, then off to the Army cause they got shit for brains. Its a perpetual family tree of stoopid sheep.
This site has really changed from when I started coming here. I don’t associate with this kind of trash at home and won’t do it here. I can not believe the thumbs down for myself, trekker, Jim in Va, Maverick and others in response to Ass Itch. If the sheeple here like what the POS has to say, they are not my kind of people.
Hunter, good evening, and you’re damned right I won’t take any prisoners. The trolls giving me red thumbs can all kiss my politically incorrect ass.
We can’t let TPTB puppets drive us out of here. We can’t let Satan have it all! Just ignore, not worth even a second of your life.
Can someone please tell me why AE is being allowed to come on this site and act and talk in the manner he is doing today, and has done in times past. Doesn’t he realize all he is doing is calling attention to the fact that he must have been dragged up not brought up, I sure hope he steps back and takes a long look at himself and do the rest of us a favor and find a little corner of the world and go there until he can get it together enough to start treating people with a little respect before he comes back to this site. I for one actually feel sorry for him as he seems to be crying out for help and because of his actions no one is going to answer him.
Acid Etch take a long nap and see if you don’t feel better.
Acid is a real piece of work.
Do you believe in freedom of speech or not?
If the hateful shit you spew most of the time is any example, then I guess I don’t believe in completely free speech after all. I believe in respect for others and a little bit of restraint. I don’t believe in unabashed verbal assaults. I hate bullies as a rule.
So no, if what you shit out of your mouth is considered “free speech”, then no, I don’t believe in it.
with out us women you men would have nothing and I can prove that on asshole so go screw your self you women hater
Acid,
FYI, it was not OLD PEOPLE who voted the other dickhead into the whitehouse, maybe you should work on the young idiots who did!
well done you communist fkreenoid.hope someone has their Leopold dialed in on your empty coconut, you won’t feel a thing.
Actually Keystone passed both the Senate and the House, but was vetoed by the King Obama.
Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad (BNSF) owns all of the rail lines in the U.S. that connect to western Canada, and they haul 80% of the crude from Canada to the Midwest and Texas, or charge other Short Line railroads a fee to use their tracks.
BNSF charges $30 per barrel to haul the oil, while the Keystone Pipeline would cost $10 per barrel by the State Department’s own estimates. BNSF is owned by Berkshire Hathaway whose chairman is Warren Buffet.
In the last two elections cycles, Buffet gave extensively to democrat causes and candidates. He also bundled and hosted numerous fund raisers for Obama. If anyone believes that the Keystone Pipeline isn’t being blocked by Obama on buffet’s behalf, I’ve got a bridge to sell you. Buffet could stand to lose $2 billion a year if the pipeline is constructed. He makes the same amount every year that the pipeline is delayed.
I live near those horrifying danger trains. Horrifying.
Are you too stupid for good grammar and verbal knowledge/skills?
You only hurt yourself by turning off a huge portion of your possible audience. Not smart. It’s not old folks that are your problem. You blew it

There is fraud in giving out free stuff? I am shocked, shocked!
Obama may not have started the program, but he owns it in the eyes of most.
This video demonstrates the problem…
I will note, however, that this woman eventually realized what was going on and appeared on the Alex Jones show to talk about it:
So she repented, saw the error of her ways and returned the phone, went out and paid for a new one. Didn’t she???
Never PO’d. She may have seen the error but I’m sure she is still using the Ocommie phone along with EBT cards and any other freebee she can get her grubby hands on.
I believe you.
Everybody in Cleveland gots Obama phone. Choose on welfare or choose on food stamps, yous gots Obama Phone. Yeah Obama give us Cell phones Romney sucks bigtime. And thus Obama won the election. And us working class people that pay a lot of taxes pays for that BS.
Nice post. Thanks.
Jaheass, Lets’ chip in to buy her a bra to support those milk factories.
I don’t know why I got voted down. I was merely stating a fact. Most of the people are calling them Obama phones.
I know she came on Alex Jones and changed her tune a little bit after he showed her some Obama videos, but Mr. Jones may have slipped her a couple of Benjamins for the appearance.
Regardless, the number of giveaway phones increased immensely since Obama.
Just the fact that someone this deep in the matrix, can even think about it, gives me hope.
It’s not about whether she gave up freebies or not, it’s that she has at least THOUGHT ABOUT WHERE FREEBIES REALLY COME FROM that counts.
The fact that even this person had enough brain cells left to think for a minute, and open her mind to other possibilities is striking. I think she may have felt a little shame, which is rare for these types of people from the FSA.
ONE LEMMING HESITATED TO JUMP…I call that a small win.
FCC Cracks Down on Fraud By ‘Obamaphone’ Providers

who’s the biggest beneficiary of food stamp money ?
Walmart
why do fast food restaurants want people to be able to use
food stamp cards to buy their grease soaked fake food ???
everybody feeding at the government trough
And next thing you know, the US Chamber of Commerce and their members will vigorously support amnesty for 11-18 million illegal immigrants. And the COC can buy alot of cheap whiskey, pink ties and prime rib for Boehner and McConnell.
The amount of Tax payers dollars wasted on this Obama phone scam is a drop in the bucket compared to the Oil company subsidies, NFL stadiums being funded by tax payers, Farm subsidies, Sugar industry subsidies, Tax free trade zones, foreign aid in the billions, tobacco industry subsidies, Fraud Waste and Abuse in the Military Industrial Complex Mafia arena, bailing out banks, the auto industry, fanny Mae, and the list goes on and on and on.
Yep, but it’s safer and easier to blame mindless boobs, than the real monsters who might bite back.
Some call it COWARDICE, picking on those who can’t fight back, while letting the big fish go free.
Amen
And the Republican controlled House cut the funding for it, right? And the Republican controlled House and Senate put an end to the DHS and TSA, too? No?
Oh wait, there is not a s**t’s worth of difference between the two!!
BINGO!
You have to understand that the cell phones are the cheapest possible, the kind that might cost $10. And phone calls are not free; you still have to pay a minimum for the service. So the fraud is on the part of the companies because they can increase the number of people paying them a monthly fee. Stop making it sound like every poor person gets free phone service.

My friend bough herself a new cell phone and gave me her old one. It is in like new condition. I don’t have service for it, but I take it everywhere I go. I can still dial 911 for free, the same is true with any cell phone.
Did you know that most payphones will allow you to dial 911 without putting in any money? They do.
For me, a cell phone is for emergencies, not facebook or twitter.
Kula, I’m with you on that. African Virus phones are just another freeloader program; an extra tidbit for the free shit army. I’m like you. I don’t mind paying for my own phone service, but I don’t want to ay for someone else’s. If you want a cellphone, GET A FREAKIN JOB AND BUY YOUR OWN PHONE.

Ah Christ, another retriever laid up on the porch that wouldn’t fetch a pork chop if it was starvin’ to death.
The phones come with some free minutes. When the free minutes run out, you either pay for more minutes, or you go get another free phone. I saw a video where a woman had half a dozen free phones in her purse and said she had a dozen or more at home.
Let the economic collapse begin! The Cultural Marxists and the feminists need to the be starved!
Ufortunately, the poor might have to suffer in the end, but at the rate feminism and cultural Marxism are spreading thanks to the feminists in Toronto, Ontario, Canada (which makes Gloria Steinem and the CIA blush), the New World Order will arrive sooner than ever.
The economy must reset or else we as Americans have to stand up against the Marxists and feminists even if the Marxist state uses violence, we as Americans should not surrender our rights and freedoms.
The feminists and Marxists favour the police state more than the corporations, because honestly, try criticizing gays or commenting on a woman’s cleavage at work….Political correctness is messing up our country.

Political-Correctness by definition, is best defined as:..

You, sir, have wisdom. Communism has never worked.

The President said that the move would dramatically increase the efficiency of the federal government, noting how much he had accomplished since he stopped working with Congress in November.

I knew a guy that got a free phone every time he renewed his ebt card, or whatever they do. He said he had about 5 different phones. He also got disability and a lot of other gimmes. He worked under the table to pay for beer. Which didn’t work out too well for him. He is currently in jail for his 5th DUI. But no worries because his girlfriend is working full time and getting her food for free, from you and me. By the time he is out she should have 6 or 7 phones just waiting for him. Along with the ongoing disability he should be set pretty good when he gets out. Land of the free.
Another black freeloader and scammer.
Wow, and Americans think that Canada is a socialist state. No wonder a certain subculture down there lives for entitlements. Look out when those entitlements stop – those folks won’t get jobs and work for their stuff, they’ll just turn to crime. Oh wait…

Please work ….my taxes are too high.why not you are not doing anything else.you are a burden on our taxes.
I remember when there were no cell phones. If you had an emergency and you had no phone, you went to the neighbors and asked them to call for help. (When I was a kid, it was safe enough to tell your neighbor to come in and make the call themselves). If you couldn’t use a neighbor’s phone, you went to a payphone because emergency calls were FREE if you dialed an operator. If you wanted to call someone else, you put in a quarter and made a call….no money? Collect call! What happened to the good ole days??
ReadyRNot, you brought back some memories with that post.
Unfortunately the good old days are dead and gone and the newer generations scoff at those of us who remember how it was,,,
Damn shame,
Reason enough for me to wish for a massive collapse, the garbage will die off pretty quick while they are waiting for .gov to come to the rescue
I can tell you pretty close to when cell phones became so prolific. It was just under a year after I spent 10,000 of my retirement money putting in 10 payphones.

Russia’s First Domino? Will Bank Failure Lead to Social Chaos?
“…the value of Russia’s only major asset, oil, has more than halved. To make things worse, trade sanctions are in force for Putin’s over-reaching annexation of the Ukraine.
Russia has lost 50% of its revenue from the tax on oil and is now unable to recapitalize its old outstanding loans. On January 26th, S&P down-rated the ruble to junk status.”
“This morning, the Sudostroitelny Bank (LTD) or Sb Bank as it’s known, froze all the business and private accounts. Account holders were told they could not take cash from their accounts.
The bank tellers would only reveal the ‘bank has problems’ and recommended not to deposit any more money. When questioned by the anxious customers, they would only reply, “it’s on the internet” and wouldn’t get into a conversation.”

Hey, the Free Shit Army is here voting stuff down, again. Nice.
Absolutely walmart is the biggest receiver of food stamp $ go into a Wally today nobody in there go on the first of the month people in their pajamas I don’t go near the place on the first of the month. The other day a republican not sure who it was said that he wants all welfare people to take a drug test I said amen to that that is the best idea ever this will get the useless eaters off the dole it’s long overdue really. My state it is legal to have up to an oz of marijuana there is a dispensary 10min away the people that operate it are driving land rovers Benz BMW all those rich cars legal drug dealers. The state decided to cash in on the weed too. They call it a compassion center the people that go in there look fully able bodied to me. I drive by it once and a while. My wife went into sears and she said all she could smell was dope. She said to me jeez they don’t even try to hide it any more. If your state is thinking about legalizing it make a big stink about it. I’ve lived in Rhode Island my whole life and let me tell you the past 15 years it has turned into a total nanny welfare state. Those Obama phones are nothing compared to the freebies some are getting the single moms around here are every where these girls get married have 2or 3 kids then get divorced they go to court get child support then welfare then they start all over again. They have learned they can have it all this way. It’s not all the guys fault. Go into he local family court and you see all these girls the same welfare queens you see in Wally’s . The gov has to stop incentivizing this behavior. The fact is there just isn’t enough jobs for all these people. There is no way there ever will be especially with technologies that destroy jobs. The self checkout line at the store is a perfect example of this. Population reduction is a great idea really get rid of the useless eaters. Stop letting people into the country that have no skills and don’t want to work anyways. They should just bomb the projects that will solve the problem kids are growing up there thinking the gov is supposed to take care of them. Free shit what real incentive is there to work . Honestly the welfares have all the same things as working people. While you take pay cuts they get more free shit. Obama says that’s fair and the people have voted for him so it must be. I’m not outraged anymore I’ve accepted it I don’t give a flying fuck really. I’m thinking of going on the dole myself why work who cares about workers anyway. Suckers
You make some very good points but your posts are hard to read. Punctuation and paragraphs are your friends….
So, you’re generally saying that you hate everyone who is not exactly like you.
“Population reduction is a great idea really get rid of the useless eaters.”
Boy are you stupid! The globalist elites consider ALL OF US USELESS EATERS, INCLUDING PEOPLE LIKE YOU! Before you start making your own personal kill list wishes, be sure you and yours won’t be included on it! And you are, on the list too.
I s the “UNIVERSAL CONNECTIVITY” tax on hard line phones as well , or just cell phone bills ?
21 red thumbs for an honest question? Really?
Mac, I don’t think these red thumbs are trolls at work. Trolls usually attack ideas they don’t like…these people attack more randomly.
I think there is a group here who is trying to dominate this site by manipulation. I think they are trying to force you to get rid of the thumbs, which they don’t like. You run your site they way you see fit, regardless.

What’s the Difference?
A young black kid asks his “Mama, what’s Socialism and what’s Racism?”
“Well son, Socialism is when white folks work every day so we can get all our benefits. You know, like free cell phones for each family member, rent subsidy, food stamps, EMC, free healthcare, utility subsidy, free computers and Internet connection, free food, free clothing, free gifts at Christmas, and on and on, you know? That’s Socialism”.
“But Mama, don’t the white people get pissed off about that?”
“Sure they do son, and that’s called, Racism.”
Enough Said!!!!
You sir nailed it
You win the internet tonight
Here, here!
SIMPLY AWESOME COPPERHEAD!!!!
..+ thousands & thousands..thumbs up to you!

Humorous question: ..(?)
..anyone game/up to..an EBONICS translation, per Copperheads truthful post???
..gotta get the point across..dontcha know!!
..as the ‘natives’ are restless tonight………..
love it!
I just got a notice last week that the Universal Tax was going up on my bill 16%.
I am glad to pay this because I really enjoy listening to loud, rude, obnoxious jack asses talking on their Obamaphones while waiting in the waiting room.
Mac; your site is being hacked again,red thumbs on every response. Way out of line
I bet half the people on this board get the free shit and keep their mouths shut about it. They talk all this shit about Obama and go and vote for the dems. Fuckin hypocrites you know who you are if your taking free shit don’t bash the others for it. You get the free public bus tix too food stamp housing project state medical all that shit. If you are gonna take it don’t be trying to hide it. Just be straight up and say you are ghetto. At least you’d be honest. Half the public is on the free lunch bunch. I see people with their food stamp card being all secretive about using it like they are trying to keep their dignity. Or do they really need at all. We all know how the game works really people. As I said before half the people you know are getting helped along. I’m thinking about not working and getting free shit myself I don’t care I paid into it long enough I want my $ back in free shit. The problem of useless eaters is too far out of control they will not stop it now for fear of rioting in the streets. We will keep footing the bill so really no reason to complain. I would put $ on it.
So… they charge working people who have a cell phone a surcharge to give poor people free phones and they have the nerve to also spy on people via their phones?
I’m poor, I have no cell phone and I manage just fine. I live within my meager means without relying on tax payers.
If enough people got rid of their cell phones, then this would stop.
The same goes for people who fly and get molested by TSA – stop flying and then the TSA molesters will be gone.
Hallelujah I’m a Bum :

Ebola news leaks out…
Patient Being Treated for Possible Ebola in Sacramento
“A patient is being treated for possible Ebola symptoms in Sacramento County. UC Davis Medical Center confirms they have a patient with a suspected case of Ebola.
They said in a statement the patient had “symptoms consistent with Ebola infection”.
A spokesperson also told FOX40 in order for their Ebola response team to be activated, the patient must have traveled to a country where the disease is active.”

What! There has been fraud and abuse in the Obamaphone program! I’m shocked I tell, just positively shocked. Cue, the raid scene in Rick’s from Cassablana. Once again a program, with the best of intentions to help the less fortunate is abused. Or as I would say: it is of little use to have your heart in the right place, when you have your head up your ass. Liberals, do take note.
Fraud has always been a problem in government programs. Until we treat this problem seriously, the abuse will continue.
@Acid Etch (Real Little Dick) I really feel sorry for you and your stupidity. I just realized when you was born that they kept the afterbirth and through the baby away. Your blog makes no sense what-so-ever!!!
Same assholes, different day. You all are a clan of jerks and because of this, we won’t visit this site again.
We hope that the owner of this cesspool site will one day see that the same group of obnoxious characters who post garbage is pushing real preppers out.
Have at it all you acid freaks, pissed off elderly, who thunk it, etc…
This site has been hijacked by a bunch of losers… PERIOD.
And to all you *.etc., post whatever you want because we will NEVER see your FILTH again…
BYE!
Wow,
Is like anything else in life, some stuff you just gotta take with a grain of salt!

Satori, that one was a classic.
It’s a pic that people wanting to lose weight should hang on their refrigerator door…as an incentive to leave it closed.
That’s a good argument for a rule that people of that size should only wear moo-moos that cover everything nasty up…Damn, I’m fat compared to my younger years, but I’d never be caught in public like that….never ever.
Must be one a them bipolar lezbitarian type critters to be so crayyzz

I’ve that episode of Judge Judy before. It fills me with shame to think that parasite and I live in the same state. But it is worth watching for that blank, uncomprehending, The lights are on but nobody is home look in his eyes when the good judge tries some of the most basic facts of life to him.
Remember Peggy Joseph???
If you don’t remember Peggy Joseph, here is a 27 second clip that will refresh your memory. You will undoubtedly remember her! She is the one who claimed Obama, after elected, was going to pay for her gas and her mortgage. /www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=P36x8rTb3jI#t=2
So, where is she now? Here she is in her own words, in a clip (1:59 min) done by film maker Joel Gilbert, (creator of There’s No Place Like Utopia) at http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=Rt9R7EQTqQA#t=2
In a nutshell, when asked if Obama delivered on his promises, she replied:
Hahaha… Absolutely not. My mortgage got worse and gas prices got higher…He had a very big voice, just like the Wizard of Oz. The wizard was this teeny teeny tiny man… and I think it’s the same thing with Obama… the man behind the curtain… not who we thought or expected him to be….I was Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz… that’s how I feel… I was Dorothy. I started getting a little more educated about politics and reading more. What I learned is, ‘never trust a wizard.’ It’s within ourselves to have the determination, the courage and the brains to bring us to our destiny. Truth and honesty are important… He lied about everything.”
She is starting to sound like other African Americans who just might vote for Rand Paul or Ted Cruz next time….
Good for her !
hmmm
either there has been a big troll invasion
OR
the thumb system has been hijacked again
No trolls, just a simple lesson. Think for yourself and disregard what the sheep think…
Never forget this…
F U Renee we don’t need your twisted lesson,go troll somewhere else.
Thought you left already??!
Renee, would you go out with me? [SARCASM]
Yeah, the fascist junior high trolls are back out. Must be sad to these types of people.
There ya go Satori , gave you an up before you get your inevitable 5 down thumbs

score one for ObamaCare
a friend of mine was paying $600 a month
now
with ObamaCare
premium was down to $197
and has a $1500 deductible
instead of a $4000 deductible
Mine is the opposite. I was paying $300 a month with a $2000 family deductible, now I pay nearly $800 a month with a $12,000 deductible. Obamacare fail.
A GOVT program full of fraud ? I CANNOT BELIEVE IT !
Now that the govt has assumed control of all things with obamacare, i only perk up when something actually isnt a screw up.
February starts next week, still waiting for govt to do one thing positive this year.
Maybe the best we can hope for is for govt not to do anything really bad this year…it’s never going to do anything positive….but then we have holder putting a halt to asset forfeitures in the lower ranks of thieves…

Here’s how this works in the micro to macro. My federal taxes have increased as my deductions, aka children, have finished school and moved out of the house.
In order to be able to pay these federal taxes I have reduced spending. One result was that I switched to a cheap phone service run by the same company that services Obama phones.
So…..increased taxes result in less income for private companies. Less income for private companies results in fewer private sector jobs. Fewer private sector jobs results in more need for government handouts. More government handouts result in higher taxes. Higher taxes result in decreased profits for the private…….
Get it?
In order to pay for other people’s Obama phones I get to use an Obama phone. “Fairness” in action.
Mac
There must be something wrong with the thumbs.
There is no possible way for all of these folks to get that many thumbs down.
Sgt.

It’s the red thumb brigade
fuck em
possee
Sarge, to me its a badge of honor, we got em right where we want em!
SGT:
Sure there is SGT. All you need to do is close out shtf and then come back in and vote again.
So you see none of us should spend one damned minute being concerned about the truth of the thumbs. Hell, it is as rigged as the national elections.
Yay, the free shit army sympathisers are thumbing us down,,,
Buncha pussies
and it’s probably only 2 or 3 of them, as POG says.
Are you guys kidding? You’re gonna come unglued over some lousy red thumb thing? You know, if they see you reacting this way, you’re just gonna get more of it.
I’m reading Glenn Greenwald’s book NO PLACE TO HIDE. Early on he talks about the NSA deal with Verizon wherein Verizon is forced to disclose its customers cellphone data.
The connection just popped into my head that the free “Obama phones” was the trade off for our “meta-data”.
NSA gets data, Verizon gets millions of new customers financed by the taxpayer in the name of income inequality and safety.
Maybe I should change my thinking and use the word “debtor” rather than “taxpayer”… that thought in light of the often regurgitated factoid that each American owes like +$150K on the 18 Trillion debt. Ya can’t get blood from a turnip.
Give em free phones, there are warehouses of old circular dial phones with a 6 foot line. I’d like to see them carry those around! Comes in black only with a large phone book!
These are NOT “Obama phones”. They were paid for by the telecommunications industry, not taxpayer dollars. One more government and media deception to make fools out of the sheeple AND journalists, if you dare call them that!
Guess things done in the dark do come to light. This is fraud, pure and simple. Like much of what BO does, this is one more ugly thing this sociopath prez has done to the middle class. But, does congress do anything about this sort of fraud and this administrations abuses? Not yet and likely not ever. BO wastes DOJ resources for illegal aliens and ignores this sort of fraud.
*
Add this to the bucket list of things against the legal constituents of this country done by our administrations. BO is not the first but he is the worst thus far. I can not imagine worse however! We must do a better picking and vetting those who ask for our votes.
Spreading the wealth did not work when a pint of beer was a nickle and you gotn a free lunch with it. The taverns did away with that perk years ago. Still does not work. Never will work.
I wonder too about all these congressman and senators who put up blogs for us to get involved in and then ask us for contributions to support their causes. Those causes are just for doing their jobs and they want extra pay from us? They damn well know what we want if they hold town hall meetings.
Plagued with fraud, what does anyone expect from a fraud like Obama?
Anyone with a half a brain knows the 13 million given out were so people could donate $1.00 to $5.00 to his campaign and so they could text them reminding them when & where to vote. Some of them did like Melowesee Richardson Pollster for Hamilton County Ohio. Voted not 1,2, or even 3 times. Voted 6 times for the “Liar n Thief.”
Term limits no retirement and a ballot driven consumption tax would go a long ways in stopping this kind of corruption and removing the government unions would make government a lot more affordable and representative…….WE NEED TO REGAIN OUR REPRESENTATION IF WE ARE TO SURVIVE AS A REPRESENTATIVE REPUBLIC…
