They aren’t free, the rest of us pay for them.
Oh and the telecom companies aren’t doing it to be nice, theres a law that says they have to.

At $200/phone plus another $80.00 (Assuming a minimum plan ), that would be about $300 per person.
That’s another $300 Million down the drain.

Fools. The people of Ohio are fools and tools.
All F’ed by the fickle finger of fate and diddled by the dangling dong of destiny.

Hey, now be careful. I used HEAP a few years ago when I ran into some financial problems, and got my free Obama phone and free minutes. I rarely used it and it is a piece of crap!

Oh I believe the number is even higher if you look at the food stamp recipients. The problem lies in immigrants getting federal funds. United States will recognize and allow immigrants to keep their beliefs. With that being said, an immigrant with multiple wives can receive thousands of dollars in food stamps A MONTH even if they don't need it. It's the American way now. This is why recipients of food stamps continues to rise and yet nothing is ever done to stop the problem. These all contribute to our failing economy. We have to fix the problem in order to heal the economy.

Do you think it would be possible to find one - just one - of those one million free Obama phone users that would cast a vote for Romney?

In 1775 Boston Patriot Joseph Warren said: "Our country is in danger, but not to be despaired of. Our enemies are numerous and powerful; but we have many friends, determining to be free, and heaven and earth will aid the resolution. On
you, depend the fortunes of America. You are to decide the important question, on which rest the happiness and liberty of millions yet unborn. Act worthy of yourselves.
May God help us all. Do what you can from now until November 6th. .

Not unless they run out of minutes. I BELIEVE a lot could be people that lost their jobs as a result of Obamas failed policies. I wouldn’t be surprised if Romney gets 35% of those voters.
To: SeekAndFind
The phone is a basic TracPhone or equivalent. $10.00 at Walmart when I got one. 250 minutes - maybe about
$20.00 if purchased individually, but should be heavilly discounted for bulk....one figure I read was $10 per month per person.
Companies like this because they can sell fancier phones and additional minutes to recipients on the program for cash.

A friend of mine has one. He is a disabled veteran. Lives in a residence facility for the homeless here in Greensboro, North Caroline. Republican all the way.
You want to take it away from him?

Am I to gather that 12.5 million Obamaphones, paid for by taxpayers, is an acceptable use of taxpayer funds? Come on!
Until just a few years ago, I did not want a cell phone, I held out forever because I did not want the expense.
Guess I was going to bear that expense whether I was willing or not. This country is teetering!

No, but many of us have donated phones to vets, or contributed to funds for that purpose voluntarily.
Please do not conflate public disgust at moochers with military benefits gladly paid.
