Not very big on accuracy I see. At no time did the person say to vote for Obama. What she said was she got a phone from Obama. They are not the same thing. One is a relating a past event. The other is giving support to a future event.

Presently, Drudge links to an article at the Washington Examiner explaining where this miraculous "Obama Phone" originated: with an FCC program called Lifeline in 1984 during the Reagan administration that, according to the agency's website, "provides discounts on monthly service and initial telephone installation or activation fees for primary residences to income-eligible consumers." The rationale, according to the agency, was that "FCC and Congress recognize that telephone service provides a vital link to emergency services, government services and surrounding communities."

So Obama is not walking around Cleveland handing out smartphones to low-income citizens on the taxpayer's dollar to gin up votes. (Bumper stickers are free, though.) Atlantic Wire notes that the program was expanded under Clinton with the Telecommunications Act, while Think Progress points out a similar program called SafeLink Wireless, a "U.S. government supported program for income eligible households that ensures telephone service is available and affordable for eligible low-income households" started under George W. Bush.

Eventually Obama's Truth Team stepped into the fray, probably after taking note of the many #obamaphone jokes going around Twitter. It directed followers to factcheck.org, which dispels the handout idea, or at least clarifies where the program originated and how low-income people access phones. Someone should probably tell that (alleged) Obama supporter where her free phone really came from, but we couldn't bear to do it ourselves. It would be like telling a kid that Santa Claus isn't real.

They didn't even have cell phones during the administration of President Ronald Reagan. There was land line. A land line. It was also a DISCOUNT if you recall, land lines were very inexpensive. They were not GIVEN high tech cellular phones along with free minutes.

Yep, the Barack Hussein Obama voter base are indeed trustworthy, responsible and highly educated citizens who are well informed!

Yeah I placed the video on YouTube and improperly labeled the video as to insinuate she was telling people to vote for Obama or maybe I'm just the guy who started this thread and pasted the title of the video as the title of the tread so I could bait an imbecile into ranting about it's accuracy. Anyways I was posting to illustrate just how damn stupid and gullible people are. This half baked sub IQ crack whore perfectly illustrates that point.

In Florida this afternoon, Vice President Joe Biden reminded supporters that thanks to President Obama, they could now get colonoscopies without a co-pay.

During his speech, Biden reminded the audience that some of their Republican friends would distort Obama’s record on Medicare.

“Everyone knows, everyone in this room knows that President Obama has increased the benefits available to people on Medicare by the action he took,” Biden said. “You are now able to go get a wellness exam, and guys, if you conclude you need a colonoscopy because of the feeling you had or you need a breast health examination, you don’t have to pay a co-pay for that.”

Biden made his remarks during a campaign event at the Century Village Clubhouse in Boca Raton, Fla.

If there are no Death Panels, why were they removed, and then RETURNED to the legislation via the regulations part on Christmas Day 2010 when no one was paying any attention?
