Okay -- they cut staff before the elections, so they can focus on the elections.

Reading between the lines, it looks to me as though they know they will lose very heavily lin the mid-terms, and there is no point concealing the fact.

Obama's Organizers Beg for Positive Obamacare Stories

Breitbart | 30 Jan 2014 | Joel B Pollak

Worried by a wave of popular outrage at Obamacare, the activists of President Barack Obama's community organizing arm, Organizing for Action, are urging members to share positive stories about the president's flagship domestic policy.

In an email to volunteers in Los Angeles, organizers note that "we are making a big effort to document the stories of people who have benefited from Obamacare" to counter negative stories. (Excerpt) Read more at breitbart.com ...

Looks like they couldn't find any positives....ROTFL.

=====================================================

I'm just hoping the OforA did not falsify official documents. A person can be held criminally liable if they are deliberately acting with the intention of deceiving or defrauding others.

Falsifying documents is a very serious offense and is generally classified as a felony. This means that a person charged with falsifying documents may be subject to the following legal penalties:
◾Having to pay a monetary fine
◾Incarceration in a prison facility.

Depending on the gravity of the offense, as well as individual state laws, falsifying documents can result in a prison sentence of 5-10 years. Also, if government documents or authorities were involved, the legal penalties may be more severe. ..... legal penalties may increase with repeat offenses.

The penalty for falsifying government documents is outlined in the Crimes Act of 1958.

OFA regularly sends me emails begging and pleading for money.

I’ve posted some of the more hilarious emails here on FR.

These people are very sick.

I used to get them just for the comedic content and more proof that these people are, no doubt, insane. Responding was fun for a while but I finally “unsubscribed” after a while. Maybe these cuts will slow down the emails you get from them.
