Somebody Better Help Me!

I heard a clip of a woman from Tampa who is the proud mother of 15 freaking kids. A social worker figured out that the kids were living in squalor and their own filth so the state of Florida intervened and put the entire family up at a hotel until they can find a new place for the poor family.

The woman doesn't work. The kids don't work. The baby freaking Daddy to ten of the kids doesn't want anything to do with his children. The other five kids all have different daddys. None of them stuck around either.

Can you blame them?

Any who-ha, this catch of a woman (evidently) was being interviewed on the news.

"This hotel ain't big enough," she whined. "We ain't heard nothing from nobody since they took us out of their house. We're waiting. Somebody better come up with something for us soon. Somebody better help me."

Doesn't that suck?

My stomach turned when she bitched about someone not taking care of her and her 15 kids. There's no doubt that people who get up and work every day get wildly aggravated when they hear a story like hers.

The guys on the Jay Thomas disected the call.

"They have to put a manhole cover over her crotch to stop her from having kids," one guy said.

"It's the Democrats fault," another side. "They are all about handouts."

"It's the Republicans fault," another said, "Because they don't believe in birth control or abortion."

Blame was being passed all around.

You know who didn't get any of the blame?

Yep, the fertile, demanding woman! She was sort of out of the mix.

But what do you do now?

15 kids.

Living in a hotel at $50 or $60 bucks a night until they can find them free housing.

Recently I inspected the grounds at a low income housing project in the Niagara Falls area.

"Five bucks a month is what we charge them for a two bedroom apartment," the HUD guy told me. "Most months the rent is late. One of our tenants burnt down her unit an hour after she moved in. She was letting the kids make their own lunch and evidently they didn't know a lot about how to work the oven."

What do we do for them?

Not sure, but somebody better do something fast.

We all owe that lady her existance.
