Obama's Town Meeting in Florida

[TWoPolitics]

What will happen when the Obamabots find out they have been conned or at least "over promised". Expectations are outta this world.

Wouldn’t President Obama himself have to wonder how so many deadbeats had so much free time in the middle of a workday to ask for so much free stuff?
.

I was wondering how all these people are able to show up at a town hall meeting in the middle of the day. I couldn't do it, I'M BUSY WORKING SO I CAN PAY OFF THIS LATEST STIMULUS BILL!!

Interesting that the states with the highest foreclosures also tend to vote Democrat.

And Obama needs to realize that the election's over. What the heck is he doing campaigning? He should doing his job as the President!

Isn't it SOP for Democrats (and many Repubs, unfortunately) in office to spend most of their time trying to make sure they get elected the next time, while their aides do all their work?

I guaran-darn-tee ya that those people there today asking those ridiculous questions were plants by the BO staffers. he did not want to have to answer any real questions on the stimulous bill. And what a better way to sell it on the American people then to have some little old lady crying because she is homeless- then he flew in for the kill and looked like the savior they all think he is.

Wow, that sounds jaded.

LOL

The most conservative areas are the only ones with no massive foreclosures. While the worst comes from California and Florida.

Also, perpetual campaigning is a common thing. Bush did it too sorta.

It had to be pre-ordered. Didn't they say that all the questions were different? And I bet not a single conservative in the audience - er - uh - "congregation".

Michelle Malkin Update: Henrietta Hughes gets a house

You know you cannot just “enter” an Obama town hall meeting. They give out tickets in advance. Who gets the tickets? People who stand in line and wait. Who tells people when and where Obama will appear next? Certainly not the Secret Service who has to protect this man. Not the MSM, who are too busy telling us how great he is without asking any critical questions.

Sooooo… how does a 61 year-old homeless woman who’s living in a pickup truck with her son JUST HAPPEN to get a ticket so she can VERY PUBLICALLY ask Prez. Obama for a HOUSE? Anyone? Who pushes her up on stage? She’s right at the front of the crowd. Did she just happen to get a seat there?

Now, within moments of this happening, it’s trumpeted all over the news. AND, surprise, surprise, the wife of State Representative Nick Thompson, Chene Thompson JUST HAPPENS to have a spare house worth $150,000 lying around, so she GIVES it to this unemployed, homeless, living-in-a-truck woman. They’ve been homeless for “more than a year”, which coincidentally, predates the current housing and banking crisis by quite a while. How did they learn about the “Obama Town Hall and Tent Revival”? Were homeless people simply rounded up? Did someone pre-canvas the area in search of “great, tear-jerking stories”? Of all the people in the audience, SHE’S one of the ones Obama chooses to ask a question?

BTW-the taxes which will be charged on this “free house” will bankrupt the poor woman. Taxes are levied based on the home’s assessed value, not on the basis of it being a “free gift”.

On a second, double-snort, the last guy who gets to ask a question JUST HAPPENS to be a 19-year-old kid of Hispanic descent who’s going to Edison State College (free tuition perhaps for in-state students?) and has worked at McDonalds for FOUR AND A HALF YEARS. By my math, he started working there when he was 14! Florida child-labor law infraction, anyone? Now, having worked at McDs several times in my past I can say that they DO offer health care plans. You have to PAY for it, just like everyone else in the country does. It’s OPTIONAL. It’s not a God-given right.

…Do the Thompsons get to claim this as a charitable tax deduction against their (probably) considerable 2009 income? How many houses do they own?

Is there anyone left in the media who will ask these questions? Ever?

Why does that not surprise me?

Will we see a line at the White House for free stuff ????
