Obama Misses on Homeless Policy
Several months back, I was walking to the parking garage at Circle Center Mall. I had just finished recording Red Shield Radio (You didn’t think we actually got up that early on Sundays, did you?), and witnessed something that really turned me off. Obama supporters were registering homeless panhandlers to vote.
Now, I always suspected that a homeless person might have other more pressing needs than let’s say… a voter’s registration card! Call me crazy, but I think food, shelter, health insurance, and a job might just be higher on the needs list. I say this with some reasonable amount of authority in that I’ve raised several million dollars for homeless programs in the past few years.
Yet today, I realized that I was just as wrong about the homeless as Barack. They don’t need to vote. And they don’t need shelter. Apparently, they need condoms and Red Bull. Especially the wheel chair bound homeless in Dallas. The man in question entered a 7 Eleven with a baseball bat and proceeded to smash the cash register. However, he didn’t take any money. Instead, he made off with condoms and an energy drink. This is what happens when cardboard and markers are in short supply.
Carry on, Citizens!
