What part of Obama really needs the money don't you understand? George Soros is a huge contributor to the obama brigade.
Do you need any other excuse for a Chicago Chapter FREEP???????????
What is the joke about Stevie Wonder taken to the wrong venue and he would never know the differance??
I don't know what Stevie sees in Obama???

They really dont need to raise any money for him, he cant lose. Im not even sure id vote for Keys, im no RINO but im also not a bible thumper who likes to tell everyone else how to live thier lives.
In English, shouldn't it be "He says, 'We have...."
How about: "Robin Williams and Stevie Wonder raise money to ensure that babies that survive abortions get thrown in the trash alive"?
I'm looking for something in October that we can plan well in advance at get at least twelve freepers there to crash the event and confront Osamabama directly with some tough questions.
In the meantime though, anyone who wants to go after Obama on Friday, I say go for it!
Heads up Chicagoland freepers.
None of these guys seem to know the difference.
My guess is nothing, since he's BLIND!!! LOL. Sorry, I couldn't resist.
What? Keyes is being outspend 260-to-1? What the hell?
Are the Republicans even trying to win, or are they intentionally trying to lose?
Huh...and all this time, the Leftists have been saying that Republicans are the ones with deep pockets.
I think the person who deserved to be freeped the most in this case is Robin Williams. I've known for a while he was a liberal Dem, but ususally the guys limits the political stuff to stage humor. We don't need another Hollyweird entertainer shoving his image onto a campaign.
Not only is Stevie "Wonder" blind but terminally dumb.
Somebody pointed out to me yesterday that they had drastically reduced the admission price to this event...they weren't getting enough takers.
I would be really p.o.ed if my alma mater contributed to political candidates. They must be private universities, no? Wonder where you could find out...
"you realize some men are born great, some achieve greatness, and some get it as a graduation gift."
And some from doing cocaine. Right, Mr. Williams?
Is that what brought you to a higher plane of enlightenment?
It helped you to realize how raising money for a pro-infanticide candidate is a great cause, right?
I wouldn't go if they Paid me!!
The Great Black Hope...not....hpefully.
He's as dangerous as Her Royal Cankleness.
