Michelle Obama serving food to homeless, with a twist

This just came in an email to me. Nice to know the homeless can't afford to buy their own food, but can afford a cell phone with camera capabilities.

And your point is? I never saw it. Those receiving aid spend on WANTS and not NEEDS is an ongoing issue and will get worse under this adminstration.

Good post, alomar!

Guys, regardless of your feelings about our current President, take the time to become informed. Read the Snopes article about this picture. Anyone could take a picture of any of us that would put us in a very bad light. Don't be suckered by someone's agenda.

The article does not disprove it as being 100% inaccurate either. Believe what you may..but I've seen too many folks receiving public aid only to spend on things that are not necessary.

About 10 years ago my sister was a Pharmacy Tech. at Kroger's and would see people with food stamps go through the check-out line and get into Mercedes-Benz's and Lexus's almost on a weekly basis.

I recently was helping my brother-in-law roofing trying to earn some extra money in these hard times. We were at a low income housing complex where basically all their rent was free and most of them all had really nice cars. Made me so sick
