Woman Showcased by Obama in SOTU is a Former Democratic Campaign Staffer
2015-01-22
[Wash Free Beacon] The woman whose story of economic recovery was showcased by President Barack Obama in his State of the Union address is a former Democratic campaign staffer and has been used by Obama for political events in the past.

Rebekah Erler has been presented by the White House as a woman who was discovered by the president after she wrote to him last March about her economic hardships. She was showcased in the speech as proof that middle class Americans are coming forward to say that Obama's policies are working.

As Rush says, leftists measure success by how many people they can make dependent on government, everyone else measures it by how many people they can make independent from government.
