...and go into the "Welfare Office" and the government will give you free money to stay home.

I bet there are white people who have gotten fed up and tried that and when they found out they can't get free money their fist thought was that whole "welfare" thing must only be for "coloreds".

Betcha Republicans lie to these people to tell them that's what's happening too.

It explains their anger over Obama getting elected. The myth told by the Right is the reason the economy collapsed is because Obama increased welfare for his own kind. FOX "News" claimed Obama was stealing from your grandma's Medicare to pay for Obamacare which they claimed was free healthcare for black people.

Makes you wonder if a political party can be abolished for the damage it's doing to the nation.
