$76,000 Cover Charge to Protest

White House pool reporter gives account of Mr. Obama's breakfast fundraiser in San Francisco

A crowd of half a dozen protesters concerned with the Wikileaks story disrupted the Obama event at the St. Regis Hotel, with Oakland activist Naomi Pitcairn organizing the event for the group which calls itself freshjuiceparty.com; she personally paid $76,000 total for tickets for the group to gain entry to the high priced fundraiser, she told us.

The progressive group protested what they called the inhumane treatment of Pvt. Bradley Manning in the Wikileaks case.

That was so embarrassingly bad.  The words were incomprehesible, one girl's voice was so flat.  The uncomfortable removal of clothes.  Ye gods.

Went to the DUmp and all they said was "Good!  K&R."  Nothing entertaining.

They still paid, and they'll still vote for him.  That's all 'Die Partei' cares about, really.  Everything else is just churning the gullible on the Left, Right, and Center.
