It wasn't exactly free speech.

$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. Their protest song — which included lyrics: “We paid our dues..where’s our change?” — was sung in its entirety for Obama, who thanked them at the end of the a capella performance......

A (_____) and their (______) are soon (_____).

I look at it this way--if you've got $76K to piss away singing horrible songs (and I heard it on F&F this morning driving to work), you don't need any change.  You're doing pretty damned well already.

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

king zero said "you have a better voice than I."  Grammar police says "Fail." 

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

Think of how many poor people that 76K could have fed.
I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

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.
