Chaos At Cobo: Up to 20,000 People Turned Out For 'Free Money'...Actually An Application For Fed. Assistance To Pay For Utilities, Rent/House Payments . . .UPDATED: Rush Video Added
There is no such thing as 'free money'. Someone always pays . . ."'Cobo a Scene of Desperation' -- Social service agencies are bracing for more troubles. The economic tsunami washing over metro Detroit swept its casualties to the doors of Cobo Center on Wednesday in the form of 35,000 people so desperate for help with mortgage and utility bills that threats were made, fights broke out and people were nearly trampled." This is Obama's America. This is what happens with socialism. You think these are long lines now, these brainwashed kids in that song on CNN talk about the long lines that are out there, you people haven't seen long lines at the emergency room until Obamacare gets implemented."Some were treated by emergency medical workers on site," as they showed up to pick up Obama money. "It was one of the most dramatic signs to date of how deeply joblessness and the home foreclosure crisis have pushed people from the lower and middle ends of the economic scale to seek help wherever they can. City officials said a total of about 65,000 people over the past few days have gotten applications -- due next Wednesday -- for a share of $15.2 million in federal stimulus money to help people avoid foreclosure or quickly rebound from homelessness." But get this. "Ultimately, as few as 3,500 people may receive the help." They think they got riots now, 3,500 people out of 65,000 filling out applications for this? Let's go to audio sound bites, this week here's a portion of Ken Rogulski reporting on WJR in Michigan, two people here in line for Obama cash.

Pastorius,
I like Rush Limbaugh.
As a person who has attempted to do radio, and, I believe, has done it reasonably well for a novice, I have to say my appreciation for Rush Limbaugh has gone way up.
He is a genius of radio. It is a difficult medium to master. He is the best I have ever heard.
He decided to share his Nobel Prize money. Duh.
LOL
It's good to see you, Andre.
You haven't been around too much lately, if I'm not mistaken.
And, you haven't been feeding us videos.
Notice I put up an 80's video today?
