The 2012 Obama Campaign has taken an oddly passive-aggressive turn. Normally the bulk emails they send out asking for donations try to be cheerful. Occasionally President Obama says he may "call you," or Michelle Obama talks about a semi-romantic dinner with you.
This time, however, the language of the email is still friendly, but instead of small talk, the email first takes a semi-passive-aggressive turn, then simply tries to guilt you into giving money to Mr. Obama's campaign. Here is a short excerpt, emphasis mine:
I know we've been sending you a lot of email lately. That's because we're staring down a critical fundraising deadline tomorrow at midnight.You know what that means for your inbox, but let me give you a sense of what that looks like around here.
The staff and I are working around the clock, powered by too much coffee. It's been way too long since we called our moms. And we've all had more pizza and bad takeout in the past few weeks than anyone should have in a year...
That's why we've been emailing this week, and that's why I'm obligated to remind you once more that the deadline is coming up in a matter of hours.
In other words: expect to get more emails. Oh, and the least you could donate is $3.00 while we work to reelect our President while eating crap food and cheap coffee. You're welcome.

Even more obnoxious than those RNC letters and I didn’t think that was possible.
President Trainwreck, became President Poverty, and has now morphed into President Pitiful.
