OBAMA CAMPAIGN CELEBRATES INDEPENDENCE DAY ... WITH FUNDRAISER IN PARIS

by BEN SHAPIRO  29 Jun 2012

Apparently tiring of US soil as a source of campaign dollars, the Obama campaign is headed overseas -- with its celebrity friends in tow. The European Obama campaign starts next week in Paris on July 4 with a reception organized by various fundraising heavy-hitters. Independence Day fundraisers in Paris – now that’s a flag-waving campaign.

The Obama campaign will host events in Geneva, Switzerland in August as part of their “European outreach effort.” George Clooney will headline a fundraiser there, with 150 tickets going for $20,000 per piece. There’s even more to the bargain: if you go as a couple, the second ticket is half-off!

WTF?  Has any president held campaign fund raisers in foreign countries? 

I'm sure they will say this to raise money from US citizens living abroad and not illegal donations, but......


Why aren't those rich Democratick citizens living here and paying their taxes?

Well, seeing that Obama hates this country. It is only natural that he would be hob knobling with his rich celebrity friends in a foreign land on America's birthday. That is o.k. He will be gone in November and we will have a President who really loves this country for a President again. God I miss Bush!

Maybe if President Bush isn't too busy, he can sit in for Obama and remind America what it's like to have a president that likes, honors and respects his country.

That would be the highlight of my 4th if he would do something like that.

Our courts have taken to quoting European laws instead of the Constitution, our laziest citizens want European healthcare desperately, and our current president raises campaign funds in Europe.  Wish we could deport the entire worthless bunch.

I honestly don't recall a US president going overseas to beg for money, has this ever happened before?

Well, considering he's down to Hollyweird, the DUmp & Axlenut's kid for fundraising, he's gotta do what he's gotta do.

I'm betting on a bake sale next.

Isn't it against the law to be using tax payers money and the services of the government for fundraising? He should be using is own money and own services. Not flying around on Air Force one and having the secret service in tow.

Come on Kyle, he pays for tourist class tickets for himself and the two or three "campaign" workers on the plane.

Since when has Obama followed the law? He is above the law. Laws are made to control the people, not the elite.

This is a true statement. I wonder what law he will not follow next. I bet he is taking more of his celebrity buddies on Air Force one, like he did with Bon Jovi. Hell, it wouldn't surprise me if they all take Air Force one to his over seas fundraiser.

That is a total farce. The man has no dignity, or class, at all.
