Slate Editor NOW Upset at Constant Obama Fundraising Emails?

Dahlia Lithwick, a Slate senior editor, is newly miffed at the constant Obama fundraising emails she's received. Oh, she didn't mind them as the campaign was going on, she says, but now that Big "O" is fairly elected, Lithwick is tired of them. One gets the feeling, of course, that this has been building in her for some time -- a sneaking dread mounting with each demand for cash. She even ends her Slate piece telling Obama that as far as she is concerned he should consider himself "cutoff" from her wallet.

Too bad she seems completely clueless that his constant grubbing for donations have moved from the voluntary stage to the mandatory stage now that she has helped elect him. She even mentions that she wants to get back to "panicking about her 401(k)" which is also amusing since the party she supports is now saying that they want to take possession of her 401(k)! Does she even know this?

Lithwick's Slate posting seems to say a lot about a media that really never did get to truly see Barack past his glitzy exterior. It was all hope-n-change. Only the "change" ends up being that every last penny in her pocket AND her 401(k) is going to go to her email buddy, Barack...

Got her email handy? We could fill her inbox with spoofed ones.

The letters will stop once the Obama admin has confiscated all of her bank accounts...

She voted for him. I guess no buyers remorse. Libs are stupid.

Obamanation doesn’t like women. he just wants their money

[Frantzie]

She is “panicking about her 401-K?”

Well dearie the market and almost every business person in the USA with half with a brain has ZERO confidence in Obama.

Don’t worry - Obama and the Dems will take your 401-K away from you anyway.

If she truly loved her Obamessiah then she would understand that he needs ALL of her resources put at his disposal.

Why does she imagine that she has better uses for her own money?

He is the OBAMESSIAH and who is she to question him? Obviously she is a silly little twit b/c the Obamessiah knows best.

I think it’s clear that even many liberals need to be “re-educated” and they may have to start with her.

No that is either a statement based in pure stupidity, naivete or both. Obama hasn't even started to empty her wallet yet, wait until she gets her tax bill next year.

I’m a bit disturbed by the continued Obama ads running on TV. They aren’t exactly campaign ads but they’re just a little unnerving.

They seem to show him caring for the poor, healing the sick, giving sight to the blind etc.

try this, I got it by googling combinations of her name/initials

Awww, the poor baby.

It’s okay, honey, it’s just make-believe. Barry will continue to get his donations, and marching orders, from his TRUE financiers — the foreign ones and the subversives. He’s just pretending to ask you, for cover.

Per Wikipedia. Lithwick was born in Canada and she remains a Canadian citizen.

Here they are in a portrait.
He was born to murder the world

So her reference to contributions to Obama are either a lie or a confession to a federal crime?

[TruthWillWin]

Since the election has been over I've still been getting email requests for donations almost daily from the Obama campaign. I reply to them all with the following:

"Check will be mailed as soon as Obama cleans up the ACORN voter registration fraud problem."

This could be fun.

Why do we have the resources to illegally investigate Joe the Plumber, who did NOT announce that he was guilty of any wrongdoing, but not to investigate foreigners who admit to breaking the law? I think it’s way past time to investigate all the Obama fundraising, much of which has already been proven to be illegal.

Maddening isn’t it?
