Henrietta Hughes

I apologize to Ms Hughes for the cynicism with which I first read this entry. I sincerely hope that she and her son are well.

Say a prayer for Henrietta, her family and for those in similar circumstances.
It could easily be one of us having to live in our car.

jpt quotes:
“We’re going to do everything we can to help you, but there are a lot of people like you.”
Nobody who watched it happen will forget what this piece doesn’t mention, that before shunting Hughes off to “my staff”, He patronized and insulted her by calling her “young lady”. A lot of His other remarks to the crowd were similarly condescending, or outright pandering.
There are quite a few more like Hughes than there are bank executives and board members. And yet … The Puppet has NOTHING to say about the poor, who WERE poor during the primaries. Possibly because they didn’t fund his takeover of the government.
The Florida sideshow has now managed to produce one instant celebrity (the young white guy) and, presumably, to house ONE mother-and-son duo of the homeless, despite the unchanging NATIONAL corruption of HUD, which concerns itself — aside from paying its operatives more than those in most other bureaucracies — more with funneling $ to landlords, and getting its claws into property owned by poor people to TRANSFER to landlords, than to doing anything else.
Oh … and to take the news-cycle edge off Geithner’s no-go contention that if the government pours ENOUGH billions into the banks, some of it will eventually bubble out in loans … to people who can, if the judgement of the banks, afford them.
The “Obama” organization, by their own pronouncements, is concerned not with the homeless and about-to-be homeless, but with the “housing market” — the real estate of it all.
Meanwhile, looks like the stock market went DOWN on the news the Senate went along with this crap.

You mean to tell me that she is asking for a handout but couldnt even take the time to get a PO Box so she could vote. Her and her son can take mediocre jobs to make ends meet, but they chose not too. Things will get better but you have to take upon yourself to get out from under the rock. You cannot sit back and wait for uncle sugar aka “the governent” to toss a check in your mailbox. This lady will probably get a book deal and will be on the road with Obama next week, you just wait. Didnt vote, but wants a hand out instead of a step up…only in america!

“You cannot sit back and wait for uncle sugar aka “the governent” to toss a check in your mailbox.”
That’s what the banks and corporations and politicians do … but they seem to have glommed onto MOST of the public resources, so that there’s nothing, literally nothing, for those whose class position didn’t guarantee them, from birth, a spot at the “success” trough.
Your assumption that there are “mediocre” jobs by which the underclasses might “make ends meet” is laughably mistaken: the price of groceries, for example, has doubled …

“You mean to tell me that she is asking for a handout but couldnt even take the time to get a PO Box so she could vote.”
The “homeless” CAN, technically, qualify to vote, at least in some states, by using a bureaucratically-vetted PHYSICAL (note: NOT a Post Office Box) address-of-convenience.
Then again, voting’s not all it’s cracked up to be: the US just voted for “change”, and wound up with a steaming crock of warmed-over corporate flim-flam.

Is someone going to investigate her to see if she is telling the truth..the way they tried to ruin Joe The Plumber. A lot of these people made bad choices. I mean if you are working 4 years a McDonald’s and want a better job,-what is stopping you? Do you have some sort of criminal record, etc. What’s going on? You can’t depend on the government to take care of you, you have to help yourselves. Obama can’t deliver free homes and cell phones to these people, and if they think he can, they are wrong. It’s not cynicism, I am tired of paying taxes to support these people. I went to school, I work hard for everything I have, they already get my money by my taxes, what more do they want? Get out there, get educated and work and you’ll succeed, but it’s easier to be dumb, sit around eating and not working and rely on other people paying for your bad decisions. Wake up

This was a disgrace. These ignorant people bought the Obama BS hook, line, and sinker. This lady, as well as Julio the 4-year McDonald’s burger flipper who, by the way, is in his second year of college, wanted to know what Big O was going to do about giving him more freebies, are poster children for what the Left has been doing: creating a nation of helpless, gutless, and useless individuals who think that the government should take care of them, cradle to grave.
Government is not the panacea for all your problems, it is THE problem.
It’ just going to get worse, folks.

I’m glad she will get help. I can’t imagine being homeless with cancer.
***************************************************
I can’t either. It’s also hard imagining people using this report as a segway into vitriol and blame. It’s too bad the tragic, though inspirational, can be so thoughtlessly skewed.
Maybe some of the posters are so quick to blame Henrietta because they don’t want to acknowledge her misfortune could happen to them, too – that they could lose their health, insurance, job, and home.

There are folks down on their luck. Have been there after the company we worked for went bankrupt. We pulled up our bootstraps and didn’t look back, but there are folks that like to suck the goverment ###. Guess her son is too proud to work at McDonalds or in a lesser job than computers. Oh, so she can’t afford a Post Office box; but bet she has an address to receive welfare checks and unemployment for her son. Just another democrat begging….no telling what obaba promised her, afterall he is campaigning for election in 2012.

The wife of a State Republican offered her a house to live in.
Obama’s staff offered her a card to call a bureaucrat.
CHANGE you can believe in! OMG. /sarcasm

I am proud to have been the lady with the microphone. What a warm woman who I loved to hug. Brave is what she was to be there and to share. God Bless America and Fort Myers!

i was very touched by this moment and feel so proud by both the president and the people who came forward to help.

Can you people not read?
“Hughes says she and her adult son have been homeless for “a long time.” She says her son lost his job in computer programming, and they in turn lost their house. She says she has been looking for a job, although she is on disability for cancer, but so far has not been able to find work.”
Operative words: although she is on disability for cancer
She is already receiving money from the government, unfortunately, Trapper does not tell us how much! Sheesh!

This woman was obviously a plant. How in the world did she manage to find her way to a town hall meeting let alone hear about it living out of her truck? Something stinks in Suburbia!

How did she know about the town hall meeting? Well, I’d guess she knew the same way I did. It was all over the news and everyone was talking about it.
How did she get tickets? Unlike W’s events, tickets to this were not pure political patronage, they were available to the public on a first-come, first-serve basis. People camped online to get them. She was homeless and I’d guess that she waited online in the hope of finding hope.
Boy, this group is sure full of angry cynics. I’d bet most of you go to big Churches and consider yourselves “Christians” too. People like you make me very glad that I’m not a Christian. I wouldn’t want to be like you in any way.

I won’t be saying any prayers for Henrietta or the president but I wish both of them well. What happened today moved me.

My best wishes to Ms. Hughes and her son. As the unemployed numbers grow across the country more and more people will be in their sad situation. To also have a serious health problem is a double burden.
(Please if you read these entries, don’t let the nasty comments get you down. I have a few relatives that think negatively like that; they are joyless folk.)
We should all remember that any of us could be in their situation very quickly. Even those with health insurance soon find out the limits of their coverage when they have a serious illness that requires long term treatments. Add on losing a job and most people could end up with their house in foreclosure. To those grouchy souls, think before you touch the keyboard.

“Mamma said stupid is as stupid does!”
Do like the rest of us, get out there and earn a living!
No one owes me anything!, I have to earn it!!
Why bail out th’ dummies.

That woman really had a story to tell, I’m sure one that’s being told a lot all over the country. I feel for her. But I’m hoping that in the future people, esp AA women who attend an Obama presidential event remember what it is, and discreetly approach staff to ask them how to approach Obama about her problem. And ask for a JOB. His staffers are all over the place at these events. She could also have handed him a note. It just made me uncomfortable to see this and how it’s being exploited and ooh and aahed all over the tv. Now somebody’s given her a house. Obama’s very sweet but does he really want to be seen as the go to guy for a house and car at an event like this?? I’ve read some really nasty comments and it could have been avoided if O and his team had handled it more discreetly. And should a crowd break out in a scream because the President kissed a woman on the cheek-then you see a woman to the left mouth the words”I love you BARACK??” Barack??? He’s the president. It’s just something really creepy about how SOME people treat him, almost in a messianac way.

Angie @ 11:52
**********************************************
The woman mouthing ” I love you” to Obama is nowhere to be seen in the video. Nothing in either the transcript or video supports your talking point of Obama being a “Messiah.” The crowd broke out into cheering and applause, not screaming, when he kissed her on the cheek, because they were supporting his show of compassion towards her.

Wow: I think this “town hall” meeting is just nerve wrecking. I think we saw a lot of common folks in desperate need of basic help. It’s great to see that Obama did not screen speakers. It’s also great to see that Mrs. Hughes is able to get help.
But, as the President stated, there are a lot of folks like her. I hope the President will remain true for others with similar needs.

Dear Conservatives:
What you should be more concerned about are the thieves and crooks in the investment banking industry who have brought this country to near collapse. They manufactured $68 Trillion Dollars in Credit Debt Swaps, funny money with no value and sold these all over the world. When these worthless papers were called upon, the deceit and fraud was exposed. You conservatives, many who complain because you don’t have self-esteem except as you compare yourselves to others with less than you seem to have, don’t dare criticize the real people who milked the system “big time”–those on Wall Street. Those are the people who took our tax money and will take more as times goes on. If you conservatives were so smart, and so talented, this is where you should be focusing your energy. No, you admire these Wall Street welfare cheats because they worked hard, got lots of education and engaged in “White” collar crime. Who are you low-life, insecure barely-making it to keep up with the Joneses people with no feeling. I supposed you thought our former President was intelligent and worked hard. He was the most undeserving and least intellectual president we have ever had. By the way, his inability to reason and his poor judgment also contributed to the sad state of our country and the world. If you always need to put someone else down to make yourselves look good, what status do your really have?. By the way, there are many people who have worked hard, gotten education and are homeless. Do you read at all, do you react to anything other than your prejudices and your emotions. See a shrink!

I would not want you to think that every cynical Republican on these boards is going to knock Ms. Hughes. I feel for the woman and will hold her in my prayers. I am glad to see that she is getting help– and you’ll notice it was bipartisan help. A REpublican representative is giving her temporary shelter.
What disturbs me is that there are, as noted here, a lot of people in her situation and sad as it is, we can’t help every one who gets through to the president for a direct appeal but ignore all the ones who have no such access. She should not have been a “human interest story” but that is what she has become.
BTW, I have to think that a lot of the help that is available for people in such dire circumstances is not reaching this woman, perhaps because she did not know how to access it. Is she on Medicaid? She would definitely qualify. Sign her up for subsidized housing, food stamps, job training for her son. She is old and sick and does not need to worry about getting into the work force necessarily, but I hope the system kicks in to help her son become able to support himself and her.
I’ll admit that as sympathetic as I feel for this woman, I do have some question about her son’s situation– I reserve judgment because I lack information. That does NOT mean that I want the media to turn his life inside out as they did with Joe the Plumber.

Thank you to Moderate and others who have a heart. We would all like to believe that in the United States our social safety net of subsidized housing, job training, and other benefits is really a safety NET, and that anyone who “really wants to work” can find a job–sentiments reflected below.
The tragedy of our current economic situation is that there are many Americans who no longer have a safety net. They have run out of unemployment benefits, they’ve lost any health care coverage they once had, they therefore can’t pay rent or a mortgage and become homeless.
The President correctly noted that there are many people in the same situation as Henrietta Hughes.
The Republican governor of Florida completely understands the situation–he clearly sees how the citizens of his state are suffering. The Republicans in the Congress, on the other hand, don’t understand–they are out to “score points” rather than to solve problems.

It’s just sad to see people’s response on here…dont think that tomorrow everythings guaranteed to you………you too can become homeless…I’m glad GOD placed this woman in a position where she was able to get the help she so long deserve..
We all have to help the less fortunate people in our everyday lives..That’s how we get our blessings in return.
I think President Obama did the right thing……..and YES they’re a million more people in the US that are in the same predicament…would you reach out to somone today?
GOD HELP US NOT TO JUDGE!!!

HELLO
This is projected to the heartless……
If you are from here YOU know there are no jobs to MOVE up to. Our biggest employer…the Tourist…have NO MONIES to come here….Chico’s just cut jobs/fed ex and ups also! I own a lawn and pool maintenace business GUESS who owns most of the homes in the area?? BANKS right! They don’t hire me why? They don’t care what the Yard looks like. WHY? They aren’t here! WOW heartless YES YOU! COME on vacation if you really want to help. Buy Lee County if you really want to help.
grrrrr

What we are witnessing here are Obama supporters. Wanting a free handout. They dont seem to care where the money comes from. They are failures of their on making and want the rest of us to pay for their mistakes. I will bet Oprah will get this looser a house. By the way where is her husband.
The preacher at Obama’s swearing ceremony should ask when the black man will do the right thing.

Wow…tough crowd! Not everyone who is homeless or struggling is freeloading from the system you know. I know a few people that need extra help and working their way off welfare becasue they want to stand on their own feet. As a taxpayer, I am happy to help those who are seeking to better themselves. This woman from what litte information there is out there, doesn’t seem like a free loader. And what does being an Obama supporter have to do with anything? Who ever won the election, being faced with the same situation….would you have wanted them to just turn and say “I’m sorry to hear you’re struggling..good luck with that” and just turn away? That would be wrong in every way possible.

AH Wake Up.
She is asking for a free house.
If thats not freeloading then what is????

Democrats love to show how compassionate they are with my money.They don’t care how much it costs because they don’t pay their taxes anyway.

Look, if this lady could not vote because she had no address and was living in her car, HOW IN THE H*LL DID SHE KNOW ABOUT AND GET TICKETS TO THE OBAMA SHOW? hummm… think about it… maybe she was a plant to make the dems look good? nahhh, not the dems…

Henrietta needs to go to her church and her family and her community before even thinking of going to the government.I agree the truh will be different from what we first saw. This is not the American spirit. People need to help people. What’s the govenment got to do with it?

Oh Lord, won’t ya buy me a Mercedes Benz….

The haters here aren’t heartless, they’re illiterate. Love all the “why don’t you get a job instead of asking for a handout?” posts. Because 10% of the country is too lazy to get a job… yes, that’s it… I’m sure an elderly woman with cancer could get a job in 10 seconds in this market.
Sorry, but if you really believe that, you are stupid.

Obama showed that he is a man of character and compassion. You should all be thankful that you aren’t in Ms. Hughes’ position.

This whole media event seems staged.
You don’t just wander into an event like this. President Obama is coming here where I live (East Peoria, IL) tomorrow and only a few will get invited by special invitation. Security will be extreme!
Are we supposed to believe that “Henrietta The Hobo” (aka “Joe The Plumber”, take two) and her son just happened to show up in their home/truck? I don’t think so Turbo-Tax-Tim.
SHE ALREADY HAS HER OWN WEB SITE!!
Time for the media to discredit this woman by hunting for every shred of negative info they can find. Oh wait … that probably won’t happen this time … she’s a democrat.

For all of my fellow commenters who “have a heart” and are “keeping her in my prayers”, get off of your computer and go help Ms. Hughes with YOUR money. Don’t take mine to do it.

Some of you are right on, especially the post by Dottie. I appreciate her post.I’ve not ever seen such anger, such in human thinking in my life, and I’ve been around for awhile. I think you cynics are suffering from mis directed anger. You are angry that the Bush administration caused this mess, but you have chosen President Obama to direct your anger to. And, until you walk a day in the shoes of President Obama, in the shoes of a homeless, ill person, you just need to shut up. I can no longer work in nursing because of a disability, but I substitute teach. Last summer I could not find a part time job anywhere, and I am highly educated.I will continue to work until I can no longer walk. I do not receive anything from the government, yet. Employers do discriminate. And they want young potentials, not older disabled people. Joe the Plumber was a plant. And he gained a lot of celebrity as a result of it. He gained financially from it too. So, leave Henrietta alone. The mess this country is in, is not her fault. She is an example of many people in the same situation. She clearly struck a nerve as she is the talk of the conservative internet. Sometimes it is difficult to feel joy for someone else’s fortune, when you yourself are hurting. But, try it, it does build character. And a word up; I used to be a Bushy, I attended several of his “events” but I was not ever pre-screened.

Well, I see the paranoid haters and conspiracy peddlers are still alive and well. Hmmmmmmmm..And I’ll bet you anything they consider and call themselves “good” Christians..
As for Ms Hughes, anyone can get into these town hall meetings if you are willing to stand in line for tickets. We had one in Elkhart the day before and it was first come, first serve for these free tickets. I’m just happy that Ms Hughes was able to get a ticket and be heard.

I’ve read some of the entries about Ms. Hughes, and I think they were so heartless. Her situtation could happen to anyone of us. Instead of bashing her and speaking negative things, we need to pray for healing in this land to help her as well as each other in these rough times. But that just shows me how so many people are living in darkness. We are all one body in Christ, so we should help one another. I will pray for that sister and brother.

First of all some of these hurtful statement regarding Mrs Hughes are ignorant and disgusting. This lady truly had a need and she was brave enough to express this to the President who is a caring individual. If you think otherwise well you all as nasty and short minded as i thought.

There is so much blame going around about who and what caused this: Bush, Clinton, Carter, Wall Street, mortgage brokers, unqualified borrowers. This is what I recommend: look up ‘Community Reinvestment Act’ on Wikipedia — they do a pretty good job giving the history of how we got this mess. Many have contributed to this snowball — all along there were some good intentions and there were some intentions laden with self-interest, but I personally blame those who were in the positions to oversea Fannie and Freddie and reform them before it got out of hand. Those who were quite aware of the issues with the balance sheets for a long time — to name three Franklin Raines, Barney Frank and Chris Dodd. One left with a magnificent golden parachute and the other two are STILL in office legislating as we speak. Not only did they not take control of the situation but they blocked efforts to reform these agencies and their practices.

I checked up on the various serviced office available and their prices are pretty competitive. Any recommendations?

For all you cynics, get a life. I became unemployed in 2002 from a $50,000 a year job, took about 2 years to get another job. This was because of the downturn in my field (telecommunications) during that time. If it wasn’t for a friend who’s mother passed away and let me live in his mom’s home while he was trying to sell it, I would have been homeless as well. I was taught to treat people the way you would like to be treated. Don’t act suprised when you stand before Christ who says “I was hungry and you never fed me” and you say when, ‘but for the least of these’.

Chew into her and that McDonalds idiot and see what we find.
Remember Joe the Plumber???
Give these two beggars the same treatment the media gave to Joe!!!!

What people in SW Fl are upset about is that Corey Hughes owns a building lot – free and clear – that is taxed assessed at $12,800. A lot which, by the way, Henrietta quit-claim deeded to him in 2006. (Hopefully someone investigates if that maneuver was done to get public assistance). Also, there are no foreclosures in the public record for them (just 1 house and 1 other lot they sold to third parties at the height of the market). With so many people here WITH YOUNG CHILDREN that are homeless and own NO property they can dump to help themselves, it is indeed sorry that the Hughes’ became the poster children instead of the many thousands more deserving.

I don’t see how any of you could look down on this woman. She is like a lot of people in this country, she needs help. Thanks to George Bush this economy has gone so downhill over half the country is unemployed and homeless. And the numbers keep rising. Shame on all of you who looked at her as nothing but someone looking for a handout. Why don’t you actually put yourselves in her shoes in this day’s economy and see if you still think asking the leader of the free world for help is wrong.

Henriette,is my aunt and i love her dearly and i can say that i don’t know what she and my cousin are going through but i can say that if she is “HOMELESS” IT’S NOT MY FORCE IT’S BY CHOICE BECAUSE MY STEP MOM AND DAD(WHICH IS HER BROTHER) OPENED UP THEIR HOME TO THE BOTH OF THEM AND THEY WERE ABLE TO STAY THERE FOR HOW RVER LONG THEY NEEDED TO(WHICH BT THE WAY THEY WHERE STAYING WITH MY PARENTS JUST LAST YEAR2008)AND THEY MOVE OUT AND I HAVE SOME VERY LOVING PARENTS AND THEY WILL BEND OVER BACKWARDS FOR ANYONE. I LOVE U MOM AND DAD AND I THANK GOD FOR HAVING SUCH WONDERFUL PARENTS,KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.

She wasn’t a plant, the evidence?
1) Bush was President for 8 years
2) Bush cut taxes for the richest 2%, they never asked for it.
3) Richest 2% sat on the extra money instead of spending it to create work.
4) Bush’s SEC ignored regulation of the derivatives market = Housing crisis = credit crisis
5) Excessive deregulation from 1978-2008
6) 500,000 jobs lost per month since September 2008
7) Bush presided over 2 recessions (March-November 2001 and December 2007-Present).
8) Bush turned a 200B Clinton surplus into a 500B deficit in ONE year.

She is a fraud. She transferred ownership of a lot in Lehigh Acres to her son in 2006 and he still owns it today. They also own a 2001 Nissan truck.
She has learned how manipulate the welfare system and play on peoples emotion. She is a fraud!

Some of you people are so gullible; this is “Politics”, of course she’s a plant right from the Clinton playbook. No need for acrimony, this is how the game “you” are being played. Unless the Obama people can hold this together, it’s going to reflect badly on him. They’re counting on you forgetting about stuff like this, so take notes and take them with you to the ballot box!

The democratic plants need to be scrutinized just like the Republican plants. Look what happened to Joe the plumber.

I have a suggestion for you Henrietta . . . get off your overweight backside and join the rest of us working stiffs in jobs that we may not like. We work to pay the bills, live within our means and end up lucky enough to pay for the irresponsible every single time.
Henrietta, you chose to live in your car after you sold your property in 2003; you chose not to find a job that is suitable enough for your extraordinary skill set; you chose not to accept help from people and private organizations because their help wasn’t completely and utterly free. Nothing is free Henrietta, someone has to pay, if not you, then us. You want it to be us. Mrs. Hughes, you’re a leach.
There are millions of people who can’t seemingly help themselves who are depending on you and your tax contributions, so get a job . . . any job.
Stop gaming the system and get in the game like the rest of us.

sammy and sendfive,
I think Henrietta needs more than than mere apologies, hope and prayer. Rather, an education, a job, and a little common sense might be a better log-term solution.

Howling Winds says:
“If you or Henrietta are willing to play the role of a serf then you’ll just have to put up with what comes along with that.”
Again…..Pathetic!!!

Henrietta said she wasn’t able to vote in the last election because she didn’t have an address. That reminded me of back before the election, when Republicans in Michigan were saying they were going to contest the ballots of people whose homes were foreclosed on. Is our democracy really so far gone that homeless people are systematically disenfranchised? Talk about people who have a real interest in voting for change. To me, it hearkens back to when only white, male landowners were allowed to vote. How is this any different?

WAKE UP AMERICA!!!! The American people created the Economic crisis as well as our goverment. People are living above their means and borrow money they can’t afford to pay back which is causing our goverment to create bogus stimulus packages which most of the taxpaying Americans are going to have to pay back. Not the homeless or the ones on welfare. As for poor Henrietta, I am sure she is in a bad situation but if she wasn’t a plant how did she get on the front row and look so good? I think the next “townhall” meeting every homeless person in the US needs to show up and ask for a house. Better yet someone needs to go undercover and pretend to be homeless and show up at one of OB’s townhall meetings. How many do you think would get in? I’ve worked since I was 13 yrs old and if someone truly wanted a job you can find one. There are jobs everywhere in the US just ask any illegal alien. The issue is many in the US feel they are above working at minimum wage. So America we have no one to blame but ourselves and our greed. And if anyone believes Obama is going to be the Messiah think again because he has his own agenda just like every other politician and is digging the US into an even bigger debt by signing the stimulus package. He just sold us down the river and guess who will loan us the money? The same people we buy oil from and then we will be in debt to other countries. Apparently he also wanted to be a TV personality because it seems he is on TV more than any other president in previous years. I guess he hasn’t figured out he can stop campaigning now and get to work. So he’s the first black president, stop drooling, get over it and move on! He is still human and will make the same mistakes every other president has made like backtracking on all his campaign promises. As the saying goes “All promises are made to be broken!” WAKE UP AMERICA!

I love how these reporters just put anything they want in a story. Lazy. La Belle is half an hour to the east of Ft. Myers in Lee County. Belle Glade is two hours away in Palm Beach County. I guess they have never heard of Mapquest. Perhaps Henreitta could get a job proofing stories.

To all of those with the heartless comments, you are not to judge! You guys talk as if she was a ploy to gain votes, but we don’t need votes anymore! Obama is President! And a damn good one too! Can you even see someone talking to Bush that way? It wouldn’t have happened. God Bless Henrietta and her family and all who need help! We are supposed to love one another, not bash! Just be careful of what you say, because there is a final judgement day!

Jimmy carter,a democratic president,started this economic crisis when he gave the loaning institutions power to loan money for housing that people couldn`t afford.Now its kicking people in the but because everything has caught up with them and they are losing their homes and jobs,including me.But Mr. Obamma is borrowing billions from china and he knows that the U.S. government can`t afford to pay it back either,so whats the difference.If we lose our homes we will also lose our government. NOW,for the person that said the republicans will do what ever it takes to win the next election no matter what it does to the economy.In 2006,your democratic party was in control of our country and could have done a lot to help the economy,like freezing gas prices etc,but what did they do? they knew that a election was coming in 2008 and didn`t give a dam about our economy.They had to make every thing look bad for the republicans so they could win the election,and they did just that.So what does that proove? Neither the republicans or the democrats give a hoot how you live or eat. We are the suckers to these crooked,lieing,worthless pieces of garbage,that need to be destroyed one way or the other.It does not matter to me any more for I have lost everything I worked for in life and will die of cancer soon. Good luck to all you suckers.

I heard of this elsewhere…but I checked it for myself. So much for needing a home.
The Property Records Of Henrietta Hughes
According to Lee County, Florida property records:
6/18/01 Property (Lot 19, Block 35, Unit 9, Sec. 20, Twnshp 44S, Range 27, Lehigh Acres Subdivision) purchased by Henrietta and Corey Hughes
10/10/03 – $124,400.00 lien release due to payment in full to Henrietta and Corey Hughes.
8/9/06 – Quit claim deed signed by Henrietta Hughes granting full ownership to Corey Hughes.

Official unemployment is nearly 10 percent and real unemployment figures are nearly double that. Even if you factor out the fact that some areas have 25% unemployment and others have 5% the country as a whole is going down the tubes.
Your hate filled, empathy free diatribes typify the the American Right in every respect. My only regret right now is that there is no god to sentence you and your ilk to eternal torment in a pit of burning sulfur while watching the total destruction of all your progeny in HD from afar.
