First Lady: Barack's Working to Free Americans from 'Any Form of Public Assistance'

In an e-mail to supporters, First Lady Michelle Obama says she grew up in a family that didn't need help from the government, and that her husband is working to make Americans free from dependence on government once again.

In her message sent yesterday from democratparty@democrats.org, Mrs. Obama says:

"When I was growing up, a family like mine -- living on my hard-working father's salary at the city water plant -- could build a solid life without much debt and without relying on any form of public assistance. Today, for too many families, that American promise is no longer within reach.

"Barack is working to fix that and he needs solid Democrats in Congress to help him."

However, her husband's administration is spending millions actively promoting dependence on government assistance in the form of things like food stamps and health care.

Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.) has written to USDA Secretary Tom Vilsack investigating the USDA's efforts to promote food stamp usage, focusing on a partnership with the Mexican government to promote food stamp usage among Mexican immigrants living in the United States:

"Your department provides a document on how to 'overcome the word "No" and rewarded a recruitment worker for overcoming people's 'mountain pride.' There is even a promotional guide suggesting those targeted for enrollment harm their communities by not accepting benefits."

The Obama Administration's Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has arranged to pay a public relations firm $8 million to promote dependence on government-run health care - enrollment in ObamaCare's health insurance exchanges.

In Pennsylvania alone, HHS is spending $4 million to promote Obamacare at state health clinics.

And, a DHS website is promoting a range of government programs to immigrants, in both English and Spanish:
• Medicaid,
• Medicare,
• Food Stamps,
• Social Security,
• Temporary Assistance for Needy Families

    I've told you guys that I babysat for the Vilsacks haven't I? Christie Vilsack was my 7th and 8th grade english teacher. this would not have been the prevailing attitude of my hometown community. it's like they got infected when they went to some crazy new college in NY at the time. I remember Christie telling us the school didn't have classrooms. maybe they went to community organizing college but they gave you a regular degree. makes you wonder if lots of liberal arts colleges are doing that

      I believe that most profs in ALL colleges and universities are promoting their extreme liberal agenda, subliminally as well as directly when possible. Professors don't have to be accountable either. We all know that students are highly impressionable. Until they have to go out and make money on their own, they have no idea of its value. Higher education has become a "community organizer" supported in great part by public funds. It takes about 10 seconds for students to start protesting in tuition increases are even mentioned. They say they can't afford it. Well, duh! If they can't afford it, shouldn't they get a job and go to school when they CAN afford it. Oh, no! They get student loans which are mostly not ever paid back. So, they learn at a very impressionable age about FREE STUFF.

    Wow...they'll say anything apparently. How is she squaring that with her over involvement in the "free" lunch program? I've never heard her say she wants to get kids off THAT public assistance. Lies lies lies.

      They'll say anything so they can capture the message and claim it as their own. Looters who will lift a wallet and call the money within it their own. They are the scum of the earth--they are the most unproductive people I can remember seeing in government--and that is a long list of losers.

        Even in the messages they capture conflict with the last messages they captured. People do not think, or question, they just belieeeeve. (Have you read Ominous Parallels by Peikoff? It talks about lack of philosophy, or philosophies that have conflicts, lack of logic, that change daily etc and people just go along with whatever they're fed and how that way of thinking (or NOT thinking) played right into Hitler's hands and got him elected....they're really are parallels. Scary ones.)

      the Obams don't understand squaring. Their fans don't care that they contradict themselves and lie. They have made an art of it. Some time ago they and their cronies realized there is no accountability required. If questioned on any of their false statements,they say they were misunderstood.
