Destiny Mathis Selling Handwritten Obama Letter To Avoid Eviction (VIDEO)

Poor Ms. Mathis. It is definitely the government's fault that she is in the situation she is in.

Maybe if she has three more kids she'll be okay

This whole story makes me sick.

This is taken from the article:

Quote:
"I am just a little bit weary of the promises that he's made,” Mathis said. “I really haven't been seeing any kind of changes that affect me directly. ... We need the money so we can move into something that's compatible with the kids and to help us out. We are really, really struggling. It's hard for us right now."
Well you moron, you should've thought about that before you, 1., got pregnant for the 3rd time with no father in sight and 2. QUIT your job.

Barry's core supporters are the welfare queens and breeders of America.

Where does it say there was no father in sight? Being a single mother doesn't necessarily mean this is how it happened. Sometimes the dad walks out on his responsibility later on. Sometimes the dad (like my dad) dies and she becomes as single mother. You are making some crazy assumptions. Nowhere in the article does it say she QUIT her job either - just that she was working before and now she's not.. She worked as a surgical technician. You don't know about her plans, how much money she was making or if she could have better supported her three kids with her old job.

All this shows is that many people actually were stupid enough to believe what obama promised during the presidential campaign.

~AND~

Some people have a problem keeping their legs closed......

The story says she could no longer work due to limited daycare options. Either that means she quit, or she didnt show up for work and got fired.. Either way, its her fault.

She also goes onto to say that her family wants her to write another letter, I guess we can consider this a welfare stimulus.

I don't know about you, but I don't have kids until I can afford them. Of course, people do fall on hard times, especially in this environment. But something tells me her situation is not relative to the economy. This situation seems to be relative to her decision to have 3 children when she couldn't afford them. The current economy just makes it worse.

Yeah, and they voted him into office, and they outnumber people like us and they breed more and they're gonna keep voting people like him into office and we're never gonna have anyone better than Obama so this is the best we're ever gonna have it - RIGHT NOW - so join me as we sit and gaze in wonder at the best we're ever gonna see, again.

Say it with me. Obama is the best we are ever going to see.

Your logic is undeniable.

She's got three kids, all of which weren't born during the Obama Administration, were they? So at least be fair and blame Bush, too. (Let's not even get into assigning any sort of blame or responsibility to the woman herself, OK?)
