POVERTY IN AMERICA

It has been determined by the government's own statistics that there are the most people/families in poverty in the U.S. than any time since 1960, the year the elitists decided that it was their duty to keep them poor forever.

First, let's examine what "poor" means in the United States of America.

• Poverty is defined as just over $21k, before deductions, for a family of four.
• Over 95% of all "poor" families have color televisions.
• Over 90% of "poor" families have air-conditioned dwellings.
• Over 90% of the "poor" own cars, computers, cell phones, etc.

Second, what would be the cry from the lawmakers if this statistic were reached during the administration of that evil George Walker Bush? Where is the outrage now (crickets chirping)?

Third, because of the definition of "poor" my wife and I would not have qualified as "poor" while I was unemployed!

On another front, in a tell-all book by the wife of the President of France, Carla Bruni, it was revealed the our current first lady, Michelle, My Bell, Obama, is " 'in hell' " referring to her role. One word of advice for Meeeshlell - QUIT! Just give it all up. Fire your staff of twenty-two. Remove the funds from the budget. Close the office. Move back to Chicago, or Harvard or or Hawaii or Kenya.
