>>>>>I always verify stuff people send me and I was surprised that this was almost entirely true. I can't get health insurance, have to juggle to keep up with lifes expenses, but this is the attitude of people in the system? Victims? I don't think so. She worked one year of her pathetic life and complains about it. She doesn't want to be treated poor? Unbelievable.

Though we cannot yet definitively identify the satirist who masterminded this piece, we believe it to be the work of a blogger known as jimbyrd on the Word Press site. The item now circulates generally in the shortened version quoted above, but the far longer original contains additional photos of the "substandard" housing given in the satire's version of Sharon Jasper, as well as her assessment of the same, such as her reaction to the contents of the wine cellar: "Look at all these bottles of wine, they are worthless. Just another example of thinking I am stupid. All this wine is at least 10 years old and some of it is 20 years old, you know the white man kept all the fresh stuff for himself. I ain’t that stupid."

>>>That's the only thing you pull out of that whole thing? Ignoring all the actual facts and grab that last part? I said it was ALMOST entirely true. Did I need to use the caps or something? Doesn't change the verifiable facts of this. Go look it up in the news reports if you need to. Cripes, Mike, you really can't be that obtuse.

I just found a lot of references, too, but they all seem to be rant sites. Maybe it's mostly true. I'm just not convinced it is. If it is I am as disgusted with her as you are.
