Only this time, Barack Obama will be a little less subtle about his purposes. On the second day of the Republican Convention, Obama will do some low-key fundraising … among Hollywood heavyweights … in Geneva, Switzerland. George Clooney will arrange for a $1,000 a plate reception, but that’s just the appetizer: Academy award winning actor George Clooney is set to host a fundraiser for Barack Obama in Switzerland next month. The event, taking place on the evening of September 2 in Geneva, Switzerland will be split into two parts: a reception and a dinner. According to Obama’s National Finance Committee, tickets for the reception where Clooney will speak are going for $1,000, followed by a dinner at the home of NFC member Charles Adams for $10,000 a plate. Space for the dinner is limited to 75 guests.

Mc Cain should jump all over this crap
This guy is dumber than I gave him credit for.
He won’t have to. Normal Americans can see what’s up w/ Obama constantly dissing the U.S.
This shouldn't even be legal!
August 28:
Martin Luther King’s ‘I Have A Dream’ speech . . . Barack Hussein Obama’s acceptance speech.
Obasm is more interested in a Commissioner of the European Federation position (and later the world) than he is in the U.S. Presidency. Series.
It’s legal as long as he is collecting from US citizens.
Money money money the Obama platform.
Wonder why all the little liberals without jobs think Obama is for them?
Oh yeah, he promises to take from the rich and give to the poor.
And when the economy crumbles, why let them eat cake! Obamas coffers will be full of cash.
Hugh Hewitt just pointed out that Obama is a dufus to do this during our convention. Its like writing material for us!
No, he should not.
What's the old saying about getting in someone's way when they're making a fool of himself.
This will ring all the elitism bells in us regular folk back home.
"$10,000 a plate - Switzerland"?
This will stink to high heaven of the elitist crowd attitude of how much better they are then us, spending more on one meal that most of have for a years food - even hold it in another country...one known for uber wealth.
McCain and the GOP should let this one get stewed in it's own juices.
Obama-Clooney '08: Substitute campaign slogan here.
But here's some ideas for the bumper stickers at the DNC.
Because it's better to look good than to sound smart.
The experience of Chicago street politics, with all the morals of Hollywood.
Our George is cuter than their George.
White House of the Stars.
This is the moment the Ocean's 11 began to rise.
Because sometimes, experience is overrated.
OK. However, from the looks of reports I've read here at FR, he's already collecting from non-US citizens, including Hamas (through a front in Gaza) among others. I really don't think he'll limit himself, personally.
lets film oceans 69 after this fund raiser just you and me Barry
Yikes!
It should come back to bite The Magic Mulatto right in his mocha Marxist candy ass if it's exploited properly.
ROFL.
You are very clever.
OBama where art thou?
