Original Obamaphone Lady: Obama Voter Says Vote for Obama because he gives a free Phone

(She coined the phrase "Obamaphone" regardless who started the program.)

Added (1). Wake Up - is good example of a Moron that didn't read the whole question.

Yes.

There's no Obama Phone giveaway program. Urban Legend. (or GOP campaign lies). Your pick

The FCC "Lifeline" program started under Reagan in 1984.It is real, the government will provide free phone service or subsidy to low-income households… It's been around since 1984.

Obama had nothing to do with starting the program.

"While it is true that the United States government does provide discounted or free telecommunication services to eligible low income and disadvantaged families, Obama had no part in initiating this program.

In 1984 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), under the Ronald Reagan administration, created the Universal access initiative."
