WASHINGTON (SR) - During his first nine months in office, President Obama has quietly rewarded scores of top Democratic donors with VIP access to the White House and lavish gifts.
One top donor described in an interview being given a birthday visit to the Oval Office and being allowed to carve his name into the Presidential desk. Another was allowed the use of the Presidential limousine for his son's prom night. Sources say the most popular gift for many high level financial supporters of the Obama campaign has been the free abortion/wine tasting package.
The biggest "reward" event so far was the lavish White House reception for 39 top donors, bundlers ($300K total), and hundreds of their friends on St. Patrick's Day, where the fountains on the North and South Lawns were filled with champagne dyed green, and a pile of "too old" White House furniture was transformed into a large bonfire on the East Lawn. Kanye West and Ludacris provided the entertainment, and police records show 19 people were arrested.
My comments: Wow, I feel like I was shortchanged! All I got for my $200 donation was a photo of Michelle in a thong! (So far no amount of delicious margaritas has been able to wipe that image from my memory. I must try harder...)
