Obama launches his WAR ON POVERTY!!!


 
At this time of rampant homelessness and a failing job market for the majority of Americans, I am doubly thrilled to see Obama has taken the bull by the horns with his WAR ON POVERTY!
There is so much to be excited about - the new Office of Economic Opportunity, Vista, Job Corps, Head Start, the Community Action Program, to name a few!
Job Corps even helps disadvantaged young folks obtain their G.E.D.s and get into college!
I will watch this inauguration with tears of gratitude, knowing the man I voted for felt the pain of the middle class, and stood up to corporate greed to show them this is
"The United States of America", NOT "The Corporate States of America"!

Let me find some more info here... oh shit. That was Lyndon Johnson. Sorry, people.

This was sent to me before the 08 election.

I wonder who he's picking to win the Super Bowl?

WHAT? We haven't won the last War on Poverty that has cost us 16 trillion dollars......and he wants to start a war on a second front?

Obingo definitely attended the The Cloward/Piven War College.

Wait, Obama is taking credit for the job corps?  I could have sworn there was one the next town over when I was a kid.

I'm sure the first campaign of the war will be against people with money, though.

The war on poverty, the war on drugs, all abysmal failures. Now the asshats are launching the war on guns, and that will fail also.

So now poverty will be a thing of the past and they'll lower our taxes and reduce federal spending.

Right?
