OUR SOCIALIST PRESIDENT LOVES SPENDING OTHER PEOPLE’S MONEY…

Apparently the Daily Beast is making some news after having obtained a number of tapes where we hear our esteemed Fundraiser-in-Chief reportedly pleading with donors to cough up some more money, sounding, again at least according to the Daily Beast, “weary” and “a tad worried.” It was during what was described as a “rambling conference call” from Air Force One, that Barry “Almighty” supposedly spoke for some 18 minutes about how Democrats are in danger of being outspent, in danger of losing Congress, and even in danger of losing the presidency. We should be so lucky. I tell ya what, I keep my fingers crossed every damn day that there are just enough rational people left in this country to make just such a scenario a reality.

The Daily Beast writes:
“The majority [of people] on this call maxed out to my campaign last time. I really need you to do the same this time,” the president said in a highly unusual (and presumably legal) fundraising pitch from Air Force One on his way back to Washington from Colorado Springs, where he’d been assessing the terrible damage caused by uncontained wildfires. A special phone on the government aircraft is dedicated to political calls that are paid for by the campaign.
“I’m asking you to meet or exceed what you did in 2008,” the presidential pitchman continued, speaking to donors who were invited to dial in based on their contributions during the last election. “Because we’re going to have to deal with these super PACs in a serious way. And if we don’t, frankly I think the political [scene] is going to be changed permanently. Because the special interests that are financing my opponent’s campaign are just going to consolidate themselves. They’re [going to] run Congress and the White House."

Again, according to the Daily Beast, Barry “hardly sounded like a man doing a victory lap after Thursday’s Supreme Court ruling upholding Obamacare. Rather, Barry sounded like a dog-tired idealist forced to grapple painfully with hard reality.” Supposedly, our Fundraiser-in-Chief is alleged to have said, “In 2008 everything was new and exciting about our campaign.” Adding, “And now I’m the incumbent president. I’ve got gray hair. People have seen disappointment because folks had a vision of change happening immediately. And it turns out change is hard, especially when you’ve got an obstructionist Republican Congress.” Obstructionist Republicans, right! If you ask me, those Republicans haven’t been obstructionist enough!

I’m pretty sure that we all remember how it was that Barry’s Democrat Party controlled both houses of Congress, and with very sizeable majorities, for roughly the first two years of his reign, and still controls the Senate. However, the speech then seemed to strike a more positive note. “Nevertheless, we’ve gotten more done in the last three years than most presidents do in eight years … I just hope you guys haven’t become disillusioned. I hope all of you still understand what’s at stake and why this is so important … I still believe in you guys, and I hope you still believe in me and the possibilities of this campaign.” He continued: “We don’t have to match these guys dollar for dollar because we’ve got a better grassroots operation and we’ve got a better message."

He rambled on saying, “The American people—the nice thing is they agree with our message when they hear it. We just can’t be drowned out … A few billionaires can’t drown out millions of voices.” Lamenting the outcome of Citizens United, Obama noted how Mitt Romney raised significantly more money than he did last month, before saying: “The good news is we’re spending a lot more money on our ground game and grassroots organizing and voter registration…We just can’t be outspent 10 to 1. That’s what happened in Wisconsin recently…” He concluded: “If things continue as they have so far, I’ll be the first sitting president in modern history to be outspent in his reelection campaign.” I question his assertion that the ‘American’ people actually agree with much of his message.

If it’s true that the American people are actually buying his message, then how does he justify the intensity with which he has gone so negative, so quickly, right out of the gate? And while some, most or all on the left, are commenting that it is perfectly acceptable for Barry to be asking his donors for more money, personally speaking, I don’t it does much to distract attention away from his fundraiser-in-chief image–particularly at a time when the national budget, or lack thereof, doesn’t seem to be quite as important as that of his campaign. And don’t you see it as being just a bit hypocritical of Barry talking about billionaires downing out the voices of millions when he’s essentially owned lock, stock and barrel by guys like George Soros, Warren Buffet, John Sperling and Peter Lewis to name just a few. All billionaires would are desperate to silence millions of Americans.
