Obama back in NYC for cash (Dems miffed---say prez is "cannibalizing" donors)
NY POST ^ | 4/9/13 | PAGE SIX

Posted on 04/09/2013 4:52:50 AM PDT by Liz

EDITED EXCERPT Obama promises “a frank and intimate discussion, will answer questions and take a photo,” at a $32,400 per couple fund-raiser. But Obama has annoyed Dem insiders. “It’s like ‘Lord of the Flies’....he's cannibalizing donors.” Others expressed fund-raiser fatigue: “It is stunning that he's back. We’d like to see some results for the money we’ve already given."

The invite explains to Dems: “You may ask why the fund-raiser and the reason is twofold....we've built a large campaign operation melding a 2 million grass-roots army of volunteers with ground-breaking technology . . . We can’t let Republicans catch up. The White House alone doesn’t have the manpower or the resources to withstand Republican attacks and control the message......The DNC is the only organization whose sole mission is to support the president and help him pass his agenda...such as gun control or immigration reform.”

Remember when 2012 candidate Obama bragged that he was so popular, he was being showered with campaign donations---and that he was the very first billion dollar candidate?

And remember when later in the campaign he suddenly announced he had to "bortrow" money to continue canpaigning?

What happened to the billion? Did Republicans demand to seee the FEC reports--Obama was required to file by law? Did Repubs demand to know why he had to borrow money to finish his campaign if he had a billion dollars?

“Obama back in NYC for cash (Dems miffed-—say prez is “cannibalizing” donors)” JUST exactly what Clinton did in 1996. Democrats felt they could help the people “correct their mistake” and vote them back into office if ONLY Clinton didn't go around the country sucking up all the available money. Obama is just aping Clinton.

And remember - as a sitting President, we're paying for him to travel the Country and steal fund-raise. Of course, we should encourage it because for every dollar he wrings from them now, it's one less dollar they'll give later. He's stealing from the future DNC coffers - and that's a good thing. A fool and his money.....

I don’t get it. Why is he doing this? What does he gain from it? Can he steal the money for his own use later on?

——it’s one less dollar they’ll give later——

I would argue that is not true. So long as they have money, and the donors are constantly making money, there will be efforts to get some of it. The guilt never goes away and payments wil be made...... over and over.

Kill gun control (and amnesty) in the Senate and the money will really dry up.

They’re already whining......they haven’t seen anything for the money they gave. I say, bleed ‘em dry.

Stupid Rats have never figured out that Obama is in it for Obama, first, last and always. He couldn't give two hoots in hell for anyone else.

Guess that's what happens when you sell your soul to the devil.

I've been saying that Obama is part of a nearly underground but not all that secret society of Democrat pro-aborts who eat babies, and now we find out he's also eating donors.

My word!
