Sean Hannity and his panel had this or some
breakdown they were arguing over in
interesting little video that came out before the 2012 election
let's listen and then I'll tell you what's really going on here
you now
give you you are Paul
remember that from the 2012 presidential campaign
on everyone about world Obama phone well a national review contributor
recently learned firsthand that you need not receive any government benefits to
get a free taxpayer-funded
phone during our investigation report applied for Obama phones and more than
one location
now she and her truthful information including our income
her insurance information and despite the fact that she did not qualify in any
way shape matter a form she was able to rack up three shiny new Obama
phones and no time was reaction Fox News poll
y los angeles Y-one and boxers contributed remove green is with us
jim %oh famine if
KY a life I
he very woman in that video under
she my what no
Obama phone very very these phones that have been given to well
here for over a decade
but 1984 nothing to do with it over nothing to do with it
there's no taxpayer fun being involved
so excuse me getting this from okay jim
well filling and while you living
help the real world life
the hell was the Lifeline program that was created in 1984
wanted want people to have access to files having said that in 2008
with me program 1984 you few mins you
if you let me finish than you be educated on something
a 2008 the program was expanded after Obama took office
the program went from paying tax dollars $822 million
2.1 billion the app FEC overseas this program Jammu
and a and on it King their all providers 5 providers
31 eight million people receive the phone
six million people are not eligible and sewer
there's taxpayer money involved in this this was a prepared for that let's let's
let's look at
bram this was a program that was started under president pays for it was actually
lean to a grant from company that was set up
under president clinton that was founded company
the legacy a vacuum he actually started under following you
about for back to work by
weird
with you castro second meh
are we really still debating the Obama phone in 2013
here's the reality: quote
there is in fact a government program that will provide low-income people
with the free or low-cost cell phone you
it was started in 2008 under George W Bush
they continue the idea of providing low-income individuals with subsidized
phone service
was originated in the reagan administration
following the breakup of AT&T in 1984
the program is paid for by telecommunications companies
through an independent nonprofit not
through tax revenue so
the two main fax to take away number one
the Obama phone is really a bush phone
or a reagan phone Obama never looked at
past or sign a single piece of legislation about a free fall
and number two it's funded by an independent nonprofit is not funded by
tax dollars
so why are we having this conversation why are we having this debate
it is a total and order non-issue
and by the way 0 when was the last time
a republican talk and I educated screaming black woman
at her word and said well it's not a fact check that it has to be true
because she said sup
its never happen in history
but the one time they do take her at her word
or how convenient is it its when there something they can
attack the president with
