I love chain emails. I have no idea how long this picture has been out there, but it's nevertheless hilarious, poignant and sad all at the same time.

This reminds me of a time when Ben & I were at the Jewel on Roosevelt, in line behind these two people who bought like $200 worth of groceries with a Link card. When we finished buying our stuff and walked out into the parking lot, there they were getting into their brand new Lexus.

How ignornat are you people? Have you ever worked in a soup kitchen? Have you ever needed to eat at one? Judgemental hypocrits! You need a whack with a clue club because clearly you ar clueless!
ReplyDeleteDid you notice it is NOT an expensive "Blackberry"? NO - because you were just trying to be ignorant and salacious! Did you wonder how he got there? Why he was there? How you could help? Why Mrs. Obama was there? Who took the picture? No because you are IDIOTS! Clueless tacky ignorant under educated bigots - SHAMEFULL! SHAME SHAME SHAME on YOU!
I have volunteered at a soup kitchen in the past, yes. While I have never had to eat at one, I come from a family that spent time on welfare on several different occasions, in low-income housing and on WIC.
