Some of you may not like getting this email, but it's food for thought, it's amazing how smart "sly" some folks can be when all that "freebie" stuff is out there.

Absolutely disgusting!!

Recently, a realtor, shared his experience with an "Obama supporter" he encountered while showing homes to a low income, working family in Pontiac, MI.

As a Realtor for the past 28 years I thought I’d seen or heard it all… Until now. I was showing homes in Pontiac, MI. one afternoon recently and showed up at a home at the 4:00 pm time my appointment was scheduled for.

After I woke up the homeowner, she let us in and then proceeded to tell my buyers and I that she has already entered into a contract to sell the home on a short-sale. (A short-sale is a sale where the banks accepts less money than is owed on the home).

After some chit-chat, she proceeded to tell us that she and her sister (who also lived in the area) were buying each other’s homes via the short-sale process. I mentioned to her that I thought relatives could not be involved in those transactions. She smiled and said "We have two different last names so no one knows the difference".

She went on to tell us that each of them owed over 100K on their homes and were in the process of buying each other’s homes for about 10-15K cash. To top it off, they were each receiving $3,000.00 in government provided relocation assistance at the closing.

My buyers and I were amazed that she was outright admitting to fraud and yet, she continued. She began to tell us that the best part of her scheme was that because they currently were not working that they (both) are now receiving Section 8 Vouchers. I said I thought those were for renters and she said “That’s the best part; me and my sister are going to be renting each other’s homes so we don’t even have to move, and Obama is going to give us each $800.00 a month to pay the rent!”

She then picked up a picture she had framed of Obama and did a little happy dance around her living room and while she kissed the picture she was singing "Thank you Obama.... thank you Obama."

So here is the bottom line… Both of these scammers got at least $80,000.00 in debt forgiven, $3,000.00 in cash for relocation (when in fact they did not relocate) and to boot, you and I will now be paying (through our taxes) $1,600.00 in rent for each them each and every month.... perhaps forever!

Is it any wonder why so many people have decided that all they have to do is VOTE for the Democrats and they will be taken care of for life at the expense of the taxpayers? I would not be at all surprised if they are receiving food stamps and whatever other programs are available for anyone who is willing to lie to get assistance.

These women went from working and paying about $900.00 each in mortgage payments to staying home and getting paid $800.00 each per month to live in the same home they had been living in and all they had to do was lie on a few papers. This craziness has to stop! I’m sure this kind of fraud is going on each and every day all across the country and no one wants to touch the subject of entitlements because they might OFFEND someone or lose a vote or two.

By the way... she had an almost new SUV in the driveway, three flat screen TV's and a very nice computer set up in her living room which was furnished entirely with nice leather furniture.

I'TS THE NEW 'AMERICAN WAY'.....

For all of the "do-gooder's" who voted for Obama to help the "less fortunate"....

CHEERS..... they are now the "most fortunate!" How're things working out for you??

You're playing a stupid, stupid game.

One of my favorite podcasters today was talking about how Hannity and other Foxites deliberately conflate the debt and the deficit, and he said that they do it "because people are stupid and they don't know the difference."

I'm not sure which side of the equation you guys are on, but neither is flattering. Lying or stupid?


The possibility "your side" is the problem doesn't exist does it? I would define stupid as voting for Obama and democrats based on what they say instead of what they are doing. "Gonna put gas in my car and buy me a new house. Gonna get me some of that Obama stash." You've watched the youtube videos of your fellow voters.

Can we at least start talking about what is going on instead of these photo-ops for public consumption?

Like Warren's act at the bank regulators' hearing. She should be in jail with them.

Concerning the govt run healthcare system, I prefer to take my chances with the hospital, doctors, insurance companies, and lawyers today. Because once a pissant at some DMV office says you're too old, here's your pain pill go home, you're dead.

Tell your Mom a state death panel has decided it would be better for everyone if she would go ahead and die. Probably do you some good to get back to God and stop worshiping man.
