Well, they have been expecting this for quite a while. We remember the obama supporters telling us how he was going to pay for her rent and gas, don't we?
Of course, we already pay for her to start with.
I remember that. Wasn't it a clip from some woman in Detroit? Didn't they use it in McCain's campaign? Look
at the last aid bill. Money going to pay salaries in states like New Jersey - land of Christ Christie
Welcome to 0bamaVille. Its truly disgusting what 0bama has accomplished in 18 months time with $3trillion in deficit spending. BTW 0bama, with $3trillion dollars, you could have simply given six million unemployed people $500,000 each.
Every welfare queen in town will be in line. They accept a low pay job on purpose to qualify and then allow their "boyfriend" who earns much more to move in.
Are you making fun of the working poor? At least she would be working. On top of it,if she is a welfare quenn I doubt she would be working.
If she gets sec 8,she should qualify. She is the working poor. You know,the people who can't afford to even rent a home or apt or buy food with their meager salaries?
Being selfish has nothing to do with it. I very well doubt, they could get FULL RENT, especially in this economy. The only reason they are doing it - is to have a GUARANTEED rent income from the government.
You don't eat the cost to maintain a rental property - you write it off, as a deduction on your taxes, thus reducing your stated income. Having the government subsidize your income is just that.
I would actually call the landlords unselfish and private enterprise - if they did it on their own The landlord is no different than the tenant. They are both getting something for free from tax payer dollars. Just calling it what it is
Some view deductions for owning a home as a handout.
I pay more for renting a home than if I owned one,but can't take a deduction.
That's one of those nice talking points which doesn't work in reality. Several states have drug testing laws but instead of saving money the amount saved ended up being less then the cost of the drug testing program so all it did was drive up costs and create another level of bureaucracy.
More happy customers (addicts) of the DNC. The Democrats might just as well start handing out crack to further solidify their voting base (it may come to that just before the November election).
Yeah and the RNC buys your vote with unfunded tax cuts and debt-funded wars to satisfy your need for the emotional high of faux-patriotism without any personal sacrifice. Whats the difference (other than your vote costs an order of magnitude more)?

The Dems have been funding 2 wars for a number of years now.
And they are trying to buy votes. Is there a difference here that I don't see ?

Well, at least 0bama can can call it "change".
My husband said this morning that with the amount of money spent already on garbage, Obama could have given every legal tax payer something like $30,000. That would have helped a family buy health care, keep their homes, cars and stimulate the economy as well.

Yes, they are buying votes (really they buying an image that they aren't "soft"). The same way they attempted to buy their re-election with votes for the Iraqi war and Patriot Act. The same reason why Obama couldn't completely disavow war and had to trade one for the other (Iraq for Afghanistan) You do understand the political fallout that would occur if they decided not to fund the wars? This country's thirst for cheap (read: free) international machismo is well understood by the Democrats.
