(CNSNews.com) - The Obama reelection campaign's $5-per-chance dinner-with-the-president raffle is now a two-for-the-price-of-one deal.
The winners will not only get dinner with President Barack Obama but with Vice President Joe Biden, too.
In an email sent out June 15, President Barack Obama's reelection campaign announced that in return for a $5 donation the president was offering supporters a chance to participate in a raffle to win a casual dinner with him at an unstated location. Four lucky contributors would win this prize.
In a follow-up email sent out yesterday, the president's reelection campaign announced that Joe Biden will be joining the four lucky winners for their dinner with Obama.
The email features a video of President Obama personally announcing the Biden bonus.
Ive got a pretty big announcement about that contest the campaign is running where you can join me for dinner, Obama says in the video. Were setting another place at the table for Joe Biden.
In order to comply with federal law, no donation is actually required to participate in the president's campaign dinner raffle. While the e-mail prominently displays a donation form, a separate link to register for the contest without making a donation to the campaign is included in the email's fine print.
In the video accompanying the email, President Obama alludes to Biden famous off-the-cuff remark that the passage of ObamaCare was a big f***ing deal.
To use one of his favorite expressions, thats a big deal, Obama says of the raffle dinner.
>The winners will not only get dinner with President Barack Obama but with Vice President Joe Biden, too.<
So you win dinner with 2 pukes who would ruin anyone’s dinner? Pass.
A couple of Biden fans will buy tickets.
.
How ‘bout Rimshot pays me 5 bucks to eat with me and he gets to pick up the tab?
They’re appealing to the most broke people out there to spend money vying for a spot to dine with the a-holes running this country into the ground. And to add insult to injury, they want these same people to donate to their re-election campaign.
Second place is dinner with Obama, Biden, and Pelosi.
So which one plays the ventriloquist?
There isn’t enough money on this planet that they could pay me to have dinner with either of these two morons.
It’s gonna be a BFD everybody!
Has anyone yet determined if these two illegal office holders are in fact running an illegal lottery?
If you’ve an upset stomach and need to hurl, five bucks isn’t a bad deal considering the cost of Ipecac.
The winner gets their picture taken with a cardboard cutout of the One and the Two.
Could pose a problem though. If Slow Joe Biden is wearing his clown suit, what will Zero wear? Maybe they will do fast changes so you think both of them are there together.
Which one is "Lenny" and which one is "Squiggy?"
They do that at a club I go to - they raffle off liquor that nobody is drinking that much of and they have just sitting around...if the raffle isn't selling that well or fast enough they throw in a couple of more bottles of crappy liquor no one is drinking...it seems to help raffle sales....maybe that's what they are shooting for here.....*snicker*
Since they don't require a donation this is probably more a legal "sweepstakes" than "lottery."
I think TOTUS will be there, after all can't have Barry say too much in front of the subjects.
Don't want to give away the true agenda ya know.
