So all the right wing talk shows keep playing the clip of the disgusting fat bitch talking about "Got my Obama phone". Of course, its the perfect image. A black, poor, female boasting about her "Obamaphone" she got for free.
Well, it was given to her under the federal program LifeLine. Each phone has 250 free minutes per month. This story is being covered locally on The Post and Courier | Charleston SC, News, Sports, Entertainment, where the Obamaphones were handed out yesterday in the ghetto side of town out of a minivan only for the poor.
And the right wingers have gone ballistic of course. Obama phones, on their tax dime. Not only was Benghazi bad enough (YES BENGHAZI BENGHAZI NEVER GIVE IT UP!!), but now he is giving out Obamaphones to all the poor.
The only problem with that talking point? Project LifeLine was founded by the Feds in 1985, as a subsidy for landlines, under President Reagan. It was expanded in 2005, under George W Bush, to cell phones, aka, "Obamaphones".
OOOOPS!!! Facts suck dont they!
It was Obama's own website that called it an "Obamaphone". Oooops!! And it was Obama who expanded the welfare rolls and ensured that everyone get the phones. My brother was able to pay for his own phone for years, but suddenly cancelled his cell plan to get his Obamaphone. Somehow, my moochie brother had never heard of the program before now. And he has three of the cell phones from 3 different companies. Anyone know if that is even allowed? He actually bitched about each one only having 250 minutes a month. Boo hoo. So damn easy to scam these "entitlements."
