I remember the collective shitfit around a decade ago when Obama give out free cell phones to homeless people. It was such a crazy concept to people who have never struggled that yes, you DO need a smartphone to meet your calling, banking and personal management needs. Everything has an online portal. Every job application requires an online portion. It's how the world works and has worked since the mid 00s.
Ah yes "Obamaphones"
Ring ring ring ring ring ... Obamaphone!
Remember that time Obama realized they were never going to approve any Supreme Court pick of his so he suggested "Ben Ghazi" for the job as a joke?
That was funny
Wait. What?! Obama gave out phones? I was living abroad for the first few years of the Obama administration when smart phones happened. Can you fill me in on this one?
