I'll bet her cable bill is paid in full each month

Maybe not. She's probably went through cable accounts in at least 6 of her children's names - maxed out and turned off for non-payment.

When she runs out of bastard children, she'll get serious about making sure the payment arrives on time.

Poor enough to park her obese self in front of a 55” Plasma with game consoles and Blu-Ray ...

Obama suspended welfare to work....

We have no poverty in this country. If you have housing, electricity, a cell phone, a TV, a car and enough food to eat you are not living in poverty.

[Dick Vomer]

All I have to say is that I've been in several 3rd world countries and we have the only poor people that are FAT, have air-conditioners, cable TV's, cell phones/iphones, cars and the ability to score weed or forms of cocaine at any time.

86 percent of strident conservatives think the poor 'have it easy'

Well, I suppose I have to make a choice about what I think.
I can voice what I perceive all around me, ignore the label. Or accept it.
OK, I'm a strident conservative.

It's either that or I'm delusional.
Delusional doesn't feel as good.

Tv’s wider than she is tall. But that’s a ‘necessity’. Can’t be judging her budgetary choices, can we ?
