Obama Calls on Celebrities to Save America
Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 16 June 2012 | John Semmens

Posted on 06/16/2012 3:29:55 PM PDT by John Semmens

At a $40,000 per plate campaign dinner, President Obama challenged the rich and famous stars of the entertainment industry to “help me take back the country from the malefactors of great wealth that are opposing my quest for social justice.”

While the dinner itself raised a total of $2 million from the 50 celebrity attendees, the President cautioned them “not to think you've done enough here tonight. The money you are giving today is a drop-in-the-bucket compared with the vast wealth this country has bestowed upon you. For a cause this important we must hold nothing back. Consider it an investment in a better world.”

One of the things the President suggested they could do in addition to contributing “until it hurts,” was “to use your status as arbiters of American culture to guide voters toward the right way of thinking. You have ready access to the media. Any one of you can get an interview anytime you want. Don't waste these opportunities by neglecting to remind your fans that if they want to make you happy they've got to vote Democrat.”

>> “help me take back the country from the malefactors of great wealth that are opposing my quest for social justice.”<<

He said to the malefactors of great wealth that are opposing America.

The irony is palpable.

Irony is lost upon these people. They cannot POSSIBLY be bad people, can they?

After all, MILLIONS see them at their posed best, every day, except for the few times they show up on a police rap sheet.

Or get caught in some desecration by the paparazzi.

Obama called the crowd to its feet...

"Let's return to an America with strong examples of leadership like Kim Kardashian, Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan and Nicki Minaj...and the greatest fakes of all time...Milli Vannili."

"Let's take America back to genuine superficiality...let's go back to the real AmeriCon!"

"BTW, you have all seen my official birth cert...right?"

"I love America! I just hate what it used to stand for!"

The Media in America represents the single greatest threat to our freedoms, future, and way of life.

Hollywood represents not only the worst parts of the Media, but the worst parts of America!!

They promote drugs, violence against and by children, violence against women, promiscuity, sexual depravity, narcissism, self idolization and cowardice!

It should be no wonder to anyone who has followed where Obama came from, and where he wants to take this great nation, that he would embrace Hollywood....they are the embodiment of everything that is wrong with humanity!!!

Interesting that he calls on Hollywood, of which few have even graduated from high school, to help him. He calls on fools to help a fool.

Opposing? No, the malefactors of great wealth; i.e. Soros and all the other liberal billionaires, are not his opponents, they're his patrons.
