Thanks proreason.

I’m grateful this website exists. It’s sweeter and lighter than Prozac.

I do think what will come out of this is the government having to put itself into another place I feel it shouldn’t be involved in—reproductive technology. Politicians are so stupid that they can’t understand taxes, economic theories, and plenty of other stuff. Medicine is not best learned by reading a book, and politicians don’t even read the damn book, they have an aide do it and then summarize. They have no business butting into regulating IVF but it’s going to happen.

When medicine can’t police itself, government puts its ugly mug in the mess and really screws things up. At this point it’s insurance companies who are telling your doctors what they can or cannot do treatment-wise. Politicians will decide that no woman can have multiple embryos implanted and perhaps even go so far as to make the doctor financially responsible for a bad outcome. They may put age limits on carrying the pregnancy. Heck, they may even legislate how many IVF kids you can have at all!

I also think the worker’s comp system will be tinkered with yet again and perhaps females who are too disabled to work are too disabled to be pregnant and they’ll have their benefits cut off. Which I do agree with, by the way. If injured workers can be surveilled and found to be doing something they say they can’t do, their benefits are pulled. Why should pregnancy be any different?

its too bad that the media wont stop…because the worst punishment for this smarmy douchebag would be no attention at all. None. See that look on her face? She feigns indignation while searching for more cameras to pan for…that smug media whore. Cut her off from the public, and she would do something very very stupid to get them back again. To think I am paying her bills out my unemployment…a tax that I already paid tax on…so she can be miss octopuss. Makes my blood boil…..

Actually the house they bought was valued at over $600K when Angela Suleman got a loan for (I think) $450K or thereabouts.
I also believe that loan was acquired around the time that Ed and Angela had filed for bankruptcy (later withdrawn).
This whole thing stinks, and honestly, there is enough outrage in California that she will end up on some sort of trouble …

The more I see this woman in action, the less I blame the fertility doctor. Who exactly was taking advantage of whom???

What a curious case.

God help those children.

No is correct. This disturbed and deviant nitwit is mainstream (remember Moynihan’s “defining deviancy down”?)…the leftist socialists celebrate state-dependent wack-jobs like this!!! Hell,I wouldn’t be surprised for the thug messiah to invite her to Washington so we can all feel her pain!!!

TMZ says she’s house-shopping at this moment … a $1.24 million McMansion in Whittier.

Certainly the Franchise Tax Board is all over this woman’s (and her family’s) ass.

TMZ also has a link to the litter’s birth certificates.

The house of cards will fall soon … won’t it?

Well I must admit I’m clueless about housing costs,but if I spent $400 k on a house, it wouldn’t be a dump. But then a friend of mine in real estate a few years ago tried to interest me in the ‘interest only’ mortgage payments so I could buy a house. SILLY ME – I thought – well that’s dumb, I can’t afford to buy a house. If I’d only known about Obama then, y’all could be paying a mortgage for me. DANG. (btw, just being sarcastic about the ‘y’all could be paying a mortgage for me’)

A few weeks ago, Miss Suleman said her welfare checks were not “welfare” because she had “legitimate needs.” (Which must be in contrast to other welfare recipients who have “illegitimate needs.”)

So according to Miss Suleman, her welfare checks are not “welfare” because her illegitimate children “legitimately” need lip gloss.

Hmm. I think I need to lay down.

‘Yet this one seems to think she has a clown car going on downstairs…’ A perfect (and hilarious) description.

A $400k house can be a ‘dump’ in some parts of California. Met with some friends in Manhattan Beach, CA about eight weeks ago, and houses that looked like $300k were actually worth two million…

And, Barbie, don’t be surprised if these folks used Octomom’s children’s disability income (SSI?) to help qualify for the mortgage. That is, if they had to show any proof of income at all! I’ve heard bizarre (and true) stories from the world of mortgage brokers.

Didn’t this woman have a nose job to look like Angelina Jolie (I think I heard that)? And injections (botox?) in her lips to plump them up (and this was right after she gave birth). Does anyone seriously think she’s not going to blow money on herself? I’m with wardmama4, Octomom should have used all that money to help her mom pay the mortgage. Of course, that’s a pretty hefty mortgage. How’d Octobmom’s mom qualify for this? If she has such a hefty mortgage, the house looks really dumpy. Couldn’t a $400,000 mortgage buy more than that? (I just remember hearing the house was really dumpy)

This is just nuts. There are people out there who desperately want children and cannot have them. Yet this one seems to think she has a clown car going on downstairs and that she can’t possibly be mistaken in thinking food stamps aren’t welfare.

I truely hope that this family already has a caseworker with CPS (at least one) and close tabs are kept on them. While I hate to think of these poor children being hounded by paparazzi because of their unstable mother, it can’t possibly be doing as much damage to their emotional wellbeing as their own mother is doing. My goodness, children are a commodity to her. Don’t they come and take the cats away from the crazy lady?

God help those poor kids. Maybe she would be willing to place some of the older children up for adoption since they aren’t quite as cuddly and cute as the new babies are.
