    How do you know he was in line?

    Simple, you don't. He could have been a volunteer there for all you know.

    Seeing the Photo's make me wonder if he was just snapping a photo of Mrs. Obama ? How do you know that it wasn't Mrs. Obama's Blackberry Pearl Cell Phone ? You really don't know who's phone it was. Boy you guys must be desperate for News. Any kind of News, weather it be true or not. You must be desperate. Suppose you stand in the Toilets and watch to see if the Needy also uses toilet paper. Do you deny the Poor People toilet paper ,so they can wipe their ***'s ?? What next ???

    It's gotten to the point where everything is a "necessity" and moochers are "entitled". There's a public housing complex here in the Phoenix area that has satellite TV. No, I'm not kidding.

    even our poor in American are richer that most of the world. Many times I've been in line buying my hotdogs and mac and cheese to see the person in front of me with 5 pounds of bling on, steaks in their cart, whip out a foodstamp card and follow them over to get their lottery tickets.

    If you could identify the person in the photo with a bio, it would be most helpful.

    I don't suppose the thought that he had a job when he bought it ever entered your mind?

  • The same as you...NONE.

    Is it your ignorance or your racism that makes you assume that the guy taking Michelle's photo is "homeless"?

    This is not uncommon. I live in NYC and see this all the time.

    Hey. Ease up on this guy. It was a gift from ACORN in exchange for his vote.
