Maybe you checked the wrong place? Maybe that black woman in the hood could afford her BMW?
May I suggest you check the local white trash trailer park for the welfare queen Bimmers?

Interesting. That really doesn't have to do with anything Barbour said.
As to whether it's a lie or not. Im not sure what the basis of that is. Are you saying that there has been some sort of investigation done, and they've investigated every Medicaid receipent in Missisippi?
Doubtful.
As to whether it's possible, I'd say it sure is. I worked for the State of Florida for years, and I saw a lot of people on public assistance, and have interviewed a fair number of them. And I saw the parking lot outside of our office.
So yes, it's plausable. Keep in mind, that some people were doing well and fell onto hard times. If they had a BMW before, they may still have it when they go to pick up their WIC checks or whatever.
Also, poor people have a large underground cash economy. We had strippers on assistance who had tons of cash.
So lie? Eh, I'll wait until the investigation of the entire medicaid population of MS is done.
