It's the Octomom's world, we're just living in it

Mike Judge's prophetic comedy film "Idiocracy" has arrived in full force. 

The unmarried mother of fourteen children, on welfare, out on disability, who somehow managed to pay for expensive IVF treatments and alleged plastic surgery has a new home valued at over $500,000.

There's more.

Thanks to lawyer Gloria Allred and good old Dr. Phil, Nadya Suleman will also receive over $135,000. a month in supplemental childcare, round-the-clock, to care for her babies costing Kaiser-Permanente hospital millions to keep alive in the neonatal ICU.

Not factored in yet will be the cost to educate and continually feed the Suleman children (taxpayer's expense) while living with mom.

And television producers have rewarded the irresponsible behavior by bestowing a reality TV show for the Octomom, Nadya Suleman, so you can get to know her up close and personal.

In part two of Dr. Phil's interview with Nadya Suleman, the octuplets mother introduces him to seven of her babies.

"At this point these little babies don't know if they're going to be picked up to be fed or picked up to be poked with an IV, so they have a tendency to be apprehensive with touch," said Linda West-Conforti of Angels in Waiting, a nonprofit that is providing 24-hour nurses once the babies come home.

Dr. Phil arranged the lucrative deal for Suleman along with attorney Allred.

Suleman was on local Los Angeles news last night gleefully running in and out of her new four-bedroom home in La Habra, Calif. for attending reality show cameras and a phalanx of paparazzi.

She said that four of the babies are ready to leave California's Kaiser Permanente Medical Center (where they've been since their Jan. 26 birth).

They will be released two at a time in a few days, she added. She said she isn't sure if Isiah and Noah, or Isiah and Maliah, will come home first.

She said the money for the home was coming from "opportunities" she has been offered, but did not elaborate on what they were. She also said she had been hoping to receive some donations to support the children's care, but had not gotten any.  Said Suleman: "It feels like things are finally falling into place."

Despite the fact publicist number two quit on her due to Nadya being "nuts."

Suleman said she made the initial payment on the house, which she was leasing with an option to buy. Her parents, she said, "had nothing to do with it."

The four-bedroom, three-bath home was listed for $564,900.
