UNBELIEVEABLE!

…”I had a former employee call me earlier today inquiring about a job, and at the end of the conversation he gave me his phone number. I asked the former employee if this was a new cell phone number and he told me yes this was his “Obama phone.” I asked him what an “Obama phone” was and he went on to say that welfare recipients are now eligible to receive (1) a FREE new phone and (2) approx 70 minutes of FREE minutes every month. I was a little skeptical so I Googled it and low and behold he was telling the truth. TAX PAYER MONEY IS BEING REDISTRIBUTED TO WELFARE RECIPIENTS FOR FREE CELL PHONES. This program was started earlier this year. Enough is enough. The very foundations that this country was built on are being shaken. The age old concepts of God, family, and hard work have flown out the window. You can click on the link below to read more about the “Obama phone” ~ Concerned and Patriotic American

Wild Thing’s comment…….
It’s now your right to own a cell phone?
Obama now able to send Campaign TEXT MESSAGES to his voters.
Trac phone= Carlos Slim, Mexico based telecommunications. Trac phone has contracts to use every one else’s cell towers. They own very little of their own infrastructure, at least in the U.S.
Not run by by Acorn, but it’s a safe bet that Acorn is cheering them on.
I am so sick of this government hand out crap and the people that want it!
