After Bill Maher debuted a clip last week from Nancy Pelosi’s filmmaker daughter interviewing stereotypical “redneck” Mississippi residents about their political views, Alexandra Pelosi unveiled a new clip during his HBO show Friday night, this time exposing so-called “welfare queens” in New York City.
The latest clip, which Maher predicted was “the thing that will make liberals go insane,” featured Pelosi’s interviews with a series of people outside an inner welfare office, most of them black and unapologetic about taking their government handouts despite being able-bodied and physically able to work.
First, here is the portion that aired last week, featuring white Mississippi residents calling President Barack Obama a Muslim and admitting to not liking him because he’s black:
There was a strong reaction to the clip last week, and Pelosi readily acknowledged that the people shown were stereotypes.
“They’re just snapshots,” she said. “Now, by Monday morning, you’re going to have the left-wing feeding frenzy attacking you for making the Democrats look bad.”

HBO
For the latest clip, Pelosi said, “It’s not as if I have to go too far to find the freeloading welfare queens,” noting that the welfare office is across from her home.
She began by interviewing the doorman, who said he sees people every day who “don‘t look like they’re handicapped in any way, they just look like they don’t want to work.”
A sample of the responses she got from the welfare recipients:
- “I’m here trying to get some Obama bucks. That‘s what I’m doing, trying to get some Obama money.”
- “I want a check.”
- “Tell me why you like Obama.” — “Because he gives me stuff.”
- “Who you going to vote for?” — “Obama.” — “Why?” — “Because he’s black.”
- “When was the last time you actually worked?” — “About half a decade”
- “You’re a perfectly healthy young man, why aren’t you working right now?” — “My background. Once you go to jail it’s hard to get a job.”
- “Why should my tax dollars be going to you?” — “My ancestors came here to help build this place — my ancestors, slaves.”
- “Do you really want to work, or do you just want to get a free check?” — “I just want to get a free check.”
After the clip played, Pelosi noted Maher’s studio audience “didn’t laugh that much” compared to the Mississippi clip, and said some of her colleagues at HBO said of the footage, “You can’t put that on TV.”
“Somehow you were allowed to do that to the toothless rednecks but when it was our neighbors — ” Pelosi said.
Of the doorman, who she said comes from a family of Democrats, Pelosi said, “the entitlement culture‘s gotten so big that we’re losing our people.”
But Maher said the points made by some in the video, particularly about slavery or having been to jail, were legitimate, saying there’s a stronger “legacy” compared to the white Mississippians who are merely carrying “a chip.”

Posted on March 17, 2012 at 10:06amI love to watch the face of a cashier at the grocery store when the folks with food stamps seperate their beer, wine,smokes,cat food and dog food and pay cash. They then pay for the food stuff with their Government credit card. I can see the cashiers don’t like the fact that they are working for $8.00 an hour and put in 8 hours. I saw a male cashier turn red in the face when the two women that just did this were talking about going to the Chickasaw Gameing Center.

Posted on March 17, 2012 at 11:03amI find it hilarious when you find a liberal that actually has an ability to apply logic and common sense. it sort of puts them in a prediciment when they figure things out.
Black folks beware – this democrats you love and support aint your friend. They kept you as slaves, they intitiated jim crow, the stopped you from voting, and when the time was right, they did the switcheroo, and put you on the welfare plantation. You are useful when you vote democrat, and suport them. When it gets to much of a burden to feed you, they will kill you. Study Mao and his rise to power on the backs of the peasant farmer. Notice that once in power, he killed 60 million of those same people. take a close look at Hillary and her type. They have a love and respect for Margret Sanger (founder of planned parenthood) . sanger viewed black folks like vermin, and wanted to gut black women and prevent them from reproducing.
One day, the socialist/communist/liberal/progressive/democrats will get power, when they do, hard working tax payers will be useful to them, and they will just take more taxes. Lazy, no job working leaches who suck from the gov teat will get exterminated like roaches. Your skin color will not matter, they will kill white, black, hispanic with no concience.

the southerner wants to earn what he has, if he could find a job, but the northerner spurns the job for the free ‘Obama’ stash, or is taking the free stash because of his ancestry being slaves…whom has the chip may I ask?
liberals lie, it’s quite that simple, but the problem is their indoctrination wont allow them to see that…and her point about 70 bil for foodstamps vs 700 bil for military, is only telling part of the picture. if you look at a real budget pie chart, you will see almost 70% of our national budget goes to entitlements, and 20% to military – thus another lie or spin to confuse the unwashed. give me a darn break here!

Posted on March 17, 2012 at 1:55pmThis is a perfect example of how schizophrenic the Left Wing ideology is. On the one hand they preach that Jesus was a socialist and the focus on the responsibility of YOU and ME to provide a comfortable life for those who refuse to work while completely ignoring the fact that these people are REFUSING to work.which Jesus clearly taught was sinful. We were created to work, even Adam and Eve had to work in the garden of Eden BEFORE the fall. God did not create us to be slothful and not work. The Left Wing conveniently ignores this point knowing that if they promise to give slothful people food, money, housing, free healthcare, free birth control and free abortions on demand they will continue to vote for them. They are aiding and abetting these people in their sin, they are complicit in enabling these people to live a life of sloth. Show me one place in the Bible where Jesus encouraged the poor not to work? God Bless

Posted on March 17, 2012 at 2:18pmWhy is our government doing so much to help people who admit that they don’t want to work while completely ignoring our combat veterans? I have a sinking suspicion it‘s because helping out combat veterans won’t necessarily translate into votes for the Democratic party. There aren’t any programs to help combat veterans who are underwater in their mortgages or anything like that, no special educational benefits for soldiers who have served in combat. Off the top of my head I can’t think of any Government funded programs specifically to help combat veterans? Why is that? I really would like to see someone ask Obama about this. Sure there are programs to help wounded warriors with rehabilitation but that’s it. It would be great if a congressman or senator would author a bill to refinance combat veterans who are underwater in their mortgages, they have given all for us and we should give something back to them instead of spending billions of dollars to help people who admit they don’t want to work and just want a hand out, how is this helping our country? We are giving nothing to those willing to sacrifice everything and giving everything to those willing to sacrifice nothing. To all of the politicians out there are you listening? How about some benefits/entitlements for those in our country who have worked hard and risked their lives for us, lets give something back.

My MRI results came back 1 week before Deployment. My tank and my Gear was already in Iraq. Folks in my Position have ZERO benefits outside of VA. No case managers ,no OIF/OEF program we have nothing. The Question I have been wondering is how do Vet‘s in my position ask for much needed help without down playing or taking anything away from Combat Vet’s? ARMY sent me out with a 10% while VA and SS gave 100% First time around. The Director of ABCMR (ARMY Board of Corrections for Military Records) admitted that my case had been filed and completed improperly but I am not a Combat vet so I can’t get any reprieve. They created a new board just for these cases (PDBR) yet the 6 year Statute Of Limitations has run out before it was created it in my case. The ARMY has the worst rate of proper percentages given out of all the branches. The PDBR has a greater than 50% turnover rate. Meaning more than half of the Service members who were put out of the military with a 20% or below rating have been given 30% or more therefore qualifying them for Medical Retirement. That is a huge injustice. Any rating below 30% means they cant get any benefits from the Military only the VA.

part of the problem is that there are just to many turds in the Army looking for the permanent profile, and the eternal pay check. Back injury is the number one way they look to get it. Too many folks raised on welfare, and have bought into the OWS mentality. It is all about trying to get something, because they think someoe owes it to them.
I have 25 years in, and I hate when people always say “make sure you get everything medical on paper” what they are saying, is make sure you get on the system. You know what? I do not need thier system. If you get on the system, you owe them your soul, and your vote. They can not get either of mine. I now have arthritis in my hands and elbows, degenerative disks in my back, and steel screw in my wrist. I volunteered for this, and it is part of the package.

You are correct. The problem is that the only way to fix it is for the economy to reset. Unfortunately, by the time that happens, the politicians would have made 75% of the population dependant on Social Programs. The 25% remaining will be rounded up and executed. The only way to have a chance is for as many non-politicians as possible run for elected offices everywhere. If enough normal people are elected, we may get to turn this thing around. If we keep electing the same people because they have a “D” or “R” next to their name, this country will go the way of the Dinosaurs.

Posted on March 17, 2012 at 12:25pmWORKFARE is the solution.
Everyone who wants to take money from the taxpayers should be REQUIRED to work 40 hous for it.
You can sweep a floor, even if it was swept 7 times already. This teaches people to WORK for money.
Plus, when a job comes along, they will take it because it pays better than welfare. Right now, welfare pays INFINITY as opposed to $10/hr. (A welfare check of any amount, divided by zero hours worked, equals INFINITY per hour!!)
Also, payments should decrease with time. You get 60 days, then, it drops 15% every 2 weeks. YOU get to choose when it is too painful and when to get a real job.
Physically disabled would be an exception, but, none of this, I’m too stressed to work crap !

If you would even bother to check to see what Beck has been doing rather than assuming you know because of what other people say to you then you would know the truth. I haven’t seen any TV or radio personality talk more about God, family, and country then Mr Beck.

Posted on March 17, 2012 at 8:53amThat is just monumentally foolish! Comparing today’s employees to slaves is rediculous.
It is much closer to compare the modern welfare system to slavery. The big difference is that slavery, while vile, was productive. Welfare slaves are destroying the system that supports them.

They’ll give us internet and cable, but it will all be monitored and controlled. They’ll give us food and clothing, but very regulated. They’ll tell us how to live, when to eat, when to sleep, and what to think. The grand Utopia….meddlers…

Posted on March 17, 2012 at 8:22amEven though my family is on welfare I hate the majority of people who abuse the system. I’m thankful for being on welfare and being able to have food, pay the bills, etc. All kinds of people have it though in the U.S. But there are many people; not all Black or minorities, just want “free money” or hand outs. There have been times my mother said “it’s free money!”. I would have to say yes and no. This money is a blessing but it comes at a price in making us lazy and looking for work more difficult. It’s a long and boring story on why my family is on welfare and government programs. Even though I’m thankful for all the benefits I can get I know they will not last forever and I have to make something out of myself. It is sad to see how many people only want “free, free, free“ or ”cheap, cheap, cheap” hand outs and bad quality items.

Posted on March 17, 2012 at 9:13amWhere do I began? Growing up my parents were in their 40′s; my dad became 50 when I still a kid. My mother was a house wife and my dad was a carpenter. Many family members were/are carpenters. During my schooling I was in special education. Many of my friends were on welfare and their families were receiving food stamps. I can recall when the early years when my family struggled to have basic necessities to provide for us and also pay the bills. Over the years my parents got sick My parents are diabetic and my dad had a kidney transplant which he needs to take all kinds of medication. To be honest I do not know everything I just understand that they’re getting older and sicker. Both my older brothers are also on welfare. My older brother Peter is on welfare and is living with us to help pay rent and my oldest brother Paul has two kids and they’re all on government pay. So, over the years with the raising cost, family having various problems (sickness, drugs, etc), low employment, etc we really are in a bad situation. As I mentioned I’m blessed to be able to be on welfare and still be able to enjoy my life. As you can already tell I have a computer with internet connection. I’m able to use that to communicate and study various subjects. But my main goal is the enlist in the Marine Corps. I do not want to be on welfare my entire life. I cannot control the actions of my family. If they need to welfare to provide for their needs then I will accept that. But I’m more then ab

Posted on March 17, 2012 at 10:02amThanks COPATRIOTS! I wouldn’t say welfare or charity is evil. All kinds of people throughout the world donate money and food for many, many people in need. The world is a scary place when you cannot provide for yourself or at least make a good living. Even living in the U.S. has it’s difficulties for all kinds of people. We need to understand and make welfare more efficient. There I believe we can truly help people find happiness.

Posted on March 17, 2012 at 10:24amYes, but one must wonder how many people would have benefited greater by not having a hand-out who didn’t really need one. Would they have found another way to provide for their needs if they didn’t receive welfare? The system has been horrifically abused with no signs of ending. Sure there are individual cases out there but, more often than not, the hand-out provides for lazy people who choose not to work.
Again, I hope you find your path out.

Posted on March 17, 2012 at 10:33amAs for me, I worked two or three low-level jobs for over 8 years to provide my own way starting at the age of 16 as well as graduating in the top 10% of my class. I never would have considered asking the government or anyone else to provide for me.
As to welfare versus charity, the HUGE difference is voluntary giving. The government NEVER spends tax money wisely which is why there is so much widespread abuse of the system.

Posted on March 17, 2012 at 11:03amNo, I know I can get help whenever I wanted because I’m apart of different programs which would help me get on my feet. If the military didn’t work out I would do everything I can to become independent. There are a few road blocks in my path before I enlist. I need to get my GED and enough credits from college before I enlist in the military. Even though I’m 23 I feel I can earn the title of the Marine and have a great life in the Marine Corps. My father was a Green Beret in the Army during Vietnam. He is one of the many influences for my choice in the military.

Posted on March 17, 2012 at 11:07am@ATILLA: I understand what you’re saying. Before I enlist I need my GED and around 16 credits. Right I’m doing whatever I can to prepare before enlisting. Getting into better shape and eating healthier, making sure all my business is took care of, learning more and more about the Marine Corps and military lifestyle, etc. I would imagine it was different for a lot of people to enlist. When I asked different recruiters they all told me what I need and I’m going to get what I need to enlist.

Posted on March 17, 2012 at 11:17amHey CHAMEL, do you see why taxpayers are frustrated? Needing a GED means you dropped out of school. At what age, 15, 16? What have you been doing for the last 6 or 7 years? Assumably, you‘ve been receiving welfare while having the physical ability to work if you are potentially able to join the Marines and at 23 you’re still not working. Why can’t you work while you get in shape and fit to join?

Posted on March 17, 2012 at 11:24amAll the best to you, CHAMEL. I do hope you realize society isn’t responsible for you to find your path and provide for your welfare at the age of 23. I understand life has been tough for you. It was for many of us. But, at some point, welfare enables and allows people to not be responsible off the good nature and good graces of people who are responsible.

Your story fascinates me. First, your literary ability and use of the English language is better than our current President’s command of the language. If you were in special ed, you were either really REALLY BAD, OR, you have ADHD! It was not due to lack of intelligence.
I take issue with your presumption that you cannot stay on Welfare forever. WHY NOT? Most people with a family history of welfare carry on to become second and third generation welfare recipients. The fact that you are intelligent makes me suspect you will perfect the knowledge required for remaining on public assistence. This is why many Americans resent welfare recipients. Most needy working families don’t have the knowledge of the Welfare system possessed by second and third generation Welfare recipients. They rarely have access to the same help your family has, such as your luxury of being able to “wait” to take your GED and your 16 college credits, while gaining your own type of knowledge in your free time from the Internet.
I’m curious – if your father was in the Green Barets, why would you be on Welfare now? Didn’t he take full advantge of the programs open to him, including medical treatment through the VA?

Posted on March 18, 2012 at 2:01pmYou can take the GED any time – why did you put off joining the service until you have 16 college credits? Is it because you found out that with one semester of college you can go to officer’s training school, avoid the worst assignments, and be assured of the best possible career the armed forces has for you?
Poor working families don‘t have such options because they don’t have the background knowledge from manipulating the Welfare system for generations to get the most benefits they can, whether or not they are needed or deserved.
Our own president is an affirmative action recipient. and unlike his wife who is genuinely smart, the president had none of the credentials or the smarts to get into Harvard. Once accepted he never would have passed his courses if Harvard didn’t have a Pass-fail and “composition” system set up for affirmative action students. As for his appointment to head the Harvard Law Review, that too was an affirmative action appointment. The editor of the Law Review is supposed to be the brightest Harvard student, NOT a political affirmative action appointee.
You can see how a person with inside knowledge of the system can parley what he has into a position he didn’t earn and was never qualified to hold.

People of working families, equally as smart resent they can’t get the same benefits as you because of their color or because they aren’t Welfare recipients who have all sorts of FREE PROGRAMS open to them.
If EVERYONE who needs free programs to get ahead had access to these programs we wouldn’t have such anger and resentment in this country. Our politicians decided there were more potential votes from the class of poor Americans than from anywhere else. This is why Welfare programs unfailry benefit the “poor”.
We have an election coming in 2012. The most unprepared, unqualified, incompetent, unintelligent president this country has ever seen will be reelected BECAUSE of this system that has been set up to unfairly benefit the poor. Whoever is behind this Trojan Horse of a manufactured persona presidency will become visible in his second term.
