No one asked me for a financial statement when we got cable.

It certainly appears to be. Why are taxpayers getting cable for the poor in the first place? Seems like the “poor” should have to buy some of their own stuff.

“FOX News isn’t a source of proper information.”

..............................................

That’s just about taking liberal media bias to the stratosphere.

Because that is what happens when you don’t pay attention to what your government is doing and they sneaked this one past us in 1994, calling it Internet Access for all.

Proof to me that they are acknowledging the fact that CNN/MSNBC are run by the DNC. If Hillary gets into office those networks will be state run television ‘round the clock.

"I'm on welfare (of sorts). Now that I've hidden my gold chains,
rings, bracelets and collars, can I get free Cable TV?"

President Bush will sign the bill.

No he'll sign the one to provide free cable with all of the Spanish channels.

At a time like this you should be supporting President Bush and his agenda. And since Bush has already said he supports this bill it is our duty as conservatives to support the bill.M

Call your Congressman today.

I don’t see how free cable TV for lazy welfare people will help them to get off their parasitic butts and get jobs.

But of course the D-rats will claim that there are no jobs to be had as they argue out of the other side of their mouths that more immigrants are needed to do the jobs that the welfare people can’t get because those jobs don’t exist. If that sounds confusing, blame them, not me.

The story is satire, but Republicans when they had the Congress should have defunded this so-called Internet Access for All thing.

President Bush not only insisted that the bill provide all the spanish channels but also that he 96 inch Plasma TV’s that are provided to the Poor must be made in China.

Give that man a hand.

Give that man a hand? I think not. Make him get a job and pay for his own hand!

Cheers! ;^)

This one was fun. Way too many people fell for it but I can understand why.

However I did have to Google the the name of the bill.

Bush has already said he would sign the bill.

Hillary indicated that when she assumes the Oval Office that all TV, Radio, newspaper and Internet news will have to be approved through the Office of Intellectual and Information Hygiene located in the basement of the White House.

Bush is supportive of the idea.

After dealing with satellite TV and the poor reception on windy or rainy days, I switched to cable. But not until they provided FOX News without paying a premium.

Forget msg 118—somehow the “satire” was missed in the original posting.
