347. And bobbolink, who e-mailed recently that she has been purged from SSI and is not doing well.

Horseshit. She's stated numerous times that she is over 60. Regardless of her work history, she would be getting SSI or SSDI and Medicare or Medicaid. Honestly? Call me heartless, but I never believed her story. How many homeless people are able to post from the public library at 3:30 in the morning when it closes at 9PM? Her story just didn't add up. She scolded everyone all the time about not caring enough about the poor. As if we couldn't care about more than one thing at a time. She attacked Will's mom and his reaction caused him to get banned. Did he overreact? Probably. But he probably smelled the bullshit all the way in Massachusetts.

She and I went round a couple times, I just didn't say the right things. But wondering what happened to her as a longer time DUer.

There was no saying the right things, Jean. I offered her help over and over and over. Hell, I offered her a room in my HOUSE as well as a way to get here. Her story never added up. If you were living in a car or homeless in CO in the winter and someone offered you a place to stay, wouldn't you take it? There was enough posted on DU for her to know that I wasn't a threat; that I was who I said I was. Hell, at that point, Skinner would have vouched for me. He and I had spoken on the phone several times. He had called me asking for some assistance on something which I stated I would never reveal the details of.

Margaret, love your posts, and agree with you-many kinds of people in the world-think the prob may be that you said who you were and she did not

Ha. Thank you, Jane. What is/was your DU name? I don't believe we are friends here. I have no secrets. I've done nothing to warrant keeping things private. Although I must admit I was a tad pissed when someone posted my personal info on Twitter and the Freepers got hold of it. #storyforanotherday

actually-never a member, but my twin is Babylon Sister. No, not friends there, but I like that what you see is what you get-all we should all do is be kind and aware!

I'm friends with her here. Ruth, right? And, I am totally what you see is what you get. Enter at your own risk. LOL.

Sorry but...who gives a ****? I completely agree with Margaret. The woman's a fraud. She probably hasn't posted because she has picked up a bunch of overtime at her office gig. Now she has to walk to her Lexus in the garage in the dark.

There was a lot wrong with bobbolink's story but the relentless posts on the plight of the homeless were a good thing for DU. OTOH, the weirdly off the mark attacks on DUers who didn't agree with every word in bobbolink's posts aren't missed.

This. Just like when I read the DUmmies saying they are HIV positive and can't afford their meds. HIV, like most terminal illnesses, gets you fast tracked onto the SSDI and Medicare roles.

Like Go Bucks always sez, DUmmies lie, all the time.

Do they really just drop people from SSI for anything other than fraud?  It seems to me that once you're in that system, you're there for good.

I know I shouldnt care but I wonder if Bobo's story was true or not. I loved how'd she would rip apart any kind soul that would want to help her.

Actually that was Frank's originally. We all just use it now.
