That it is true that there is such a program, but it's not true that it's an Obama program.

Ah, thank you. Sigh....I really wish people would learn to read, it'd be easier on all of us, don't you think?

at the snopes page the conclusion they reach is that it's a ''mixture'' (sic) of fact and fiction. The snopes page gives that link to the ''Universal Support for Low-Income Consumers'' page at gpoaccess.gov.

Then are you going to correct your lie in the title? Or apologize for trying to smear our President? Or doesn't your personal integrity matter to you?

One of the programs mentioned "life line", if I am not mistaken, gives cell phones to Domestic Violence victims for their safety. There could be multiple "life line" programs though so I am not sure if they are one in the same.

My land line phone company has a "life line" program for very low use customers who just want/need one for an emergencies.
