Romney Sells Inauguration Access, Nine Months Early - $50,000 a head


Saturday, April 21, 2012 12:27:AM

Former Governor Mitt Romney is already offering top donors access to a special "Presidential Inaugural retreat," planned on the assumption that he will be elected president this November.

The offer, in a fundraising email circulated by a top Georgia supporter to fellow Republicans and obtained by BuzzFeed, is one of several goodies offered to those who contribute more than $50,000 to the joint fundraising committee known as "Romney Victory," a program whose outlines were first reported by POLITICO.

Those donors will be named "Founding Members" of Romney Victory and invited to a California retreat with Romney and offered "yet to be determined access at the Republican National Convention in Tampa in August."

They will also "have preferred status at the first Presidential Inaugural retreat," the email says.

The copy of the email obtained by BuzzFeed was forwarded by Richard Stormont, a former executive at the Marriott hotel chain, on whose board Romney sat.

Obama, has to beat this presumptuous, sliver spoon, forked tongue A grade asshole. The rethugs will try with all their might to steal this election. We have to fight with everything we've got, all the silly criticisms and nitpicking of the President must cease. We are up against a megalomaniac in Mittens. We must volunteer, make phone calls, knock on doors, whatever it takes to give Obama a second and highly deserved term!!!

That's what 0bama is doing, his donors seem to get "loans" on fairly regular basis then they go bankrupt.

How is this any different from Obama's "raffle" in 2008?

Google execs among big donors to inauguration

Verne Kopytoff, Chronicle Staff Writer

Saturday, January 3, 2009


Count on dozens of Bay Area business leaders being out of the office on Jan. 20.

As major donors to President-elect Barack Obama's inauguration, they are guaranteed hard-to-get tickets to galas, dinners and receptions marking the changing of the guard at the White House.

Google executives, venture capitalists, advertising industry chiefs, attorneys and entrepreneurs contributed up to $50,000 each to the committee organizing the official festivities. The cash makes them part of a historic event that is expected to draw millions of spectators to the National Mall and, according to political analysts, buys them goodwill with the incoming administration.

It is said that branches draw their life from the vine. Each is separate yet all are one as they share one life giving stem . The Bible tells us we are called to a similar union in life, our lives with the life of God. We are incorporated into him; made sharers in his life. Apart from this union we can do nothing.

Only because an Obamabuck won't be worth the paper it's printed on.

I hope Romney gives a refund if by some quark he isn't elected.

Taking into account devaluation of the dollar, inflation and all, how much has the price of renting the Lincoln bedroom gone up since the Clintons left office?
