Friend --
The critical September 30th fundraising deadline is the primary focus of the campaign for the next week and a half, but two things happened this week that you ought to be proud of:
-- President Obama laid out the Buffett Rule: a proposal to help bring down our deficit by asking millionaires and billionaires to pay their fair share in taxes. It's a position that more than 70 percent of Americans agree with, but something that too many millionaire politicians don't have the guts to propose.
-- "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" officially became history. It's done. That's something that we'll tell our kids about -- and this President helped finally do it.
What happens in the next week and a half is up to you.
The deadline we face in nine days is serious. It's the official FEC filing deadline, and it's not arbitrary -- it's built into our campaign's budget plan. It will determine what kinds of resources we can commit to which states as we expand our ground game.
Right now, you have a chance to affect what that picture looks like. Pitch in $5 or more to help get where we need to go by the deadline:

Our President is out there doing great things. And right now, it's on us to get his back by showing the strength of the organization behind him.
Thanks,
Jen
Jen O'Malley Dillon Deputy Campaign Manager Obama for America
P.S. -- As an added bonus, every donation you make before September 30th will automatically enter you to win dinner with President Obama. Take ownership of this campaign today, and you could find yourself across the table from the President.
Also, the raffle to have dinner with him is illegal in Kansas and Minnesota (and maybe other places I'm not aware of)...which they continue to ignore/and get away with ignoring.
I apparently got on the fund raising list by going to Attack Watch and turning myself in.
I unsubscribed today and in the comments box I put as a reason:
F@ck You commie b@itch!
I hope that I didn’t hurt her feelings. NOT!

Laughable! And just about as credible as this:
I Timothy Geithner, Secretary of the United States Department of the Treasury Washington DC, registers this advice to you owing to my wealth of experience here in the office, of which I would not advocate any reason that will warrant your fund to be questionable by any governmental agency, in this regard, it is paramount you pay full attention and adhere to all instructions.I crave your attention to note that International Debt Funds Recoup Unit a department under the United States Department of the Treasury Washington DC, has in their vault the sum of US$15,800,000.00 (Fifteen Million Eight Hundred Thousand USD) on your name originated from international debt funds owe to you by the undisclosed organization on this article.
I urge you to contact the addressed person(s) of the International Debt Funds Recoup Unit via the contact email below for more details on how to claim your debt funds.

I think that the appropriate response to this is to send in IOUs...isn’t that how the Gov’t works?! Seems only fitting that The One should reap what he sows...
OMG IS THAT CHEESY OR WHAt??!?!?!?!?!?
Are you implying that the Obama fundraising e-mail is like....a Nigerian spam e-mail. Where’s the ‘That’s Racist’ kid?
Things I would ask, if seated across from Obama:
Since you released your LF BC, why not allowed a balanced team—half skeptics, half believers—access to the vault copy? What have you got to lose?
What grades did you make in college?
What courses did you take at Occidental? At Columbia?
Why are your transcripts unavailable?
Do you still believe a baby that survives abortion should be left to die of exposure in on a cold metal slab?
Why do your acquaintances from college days remember you as a hardcore, revolutionary marxist?
How could you call Jeremiah Wright your ‘spiritual mentor’ and not know what kind of anti-American bilge he spewed week after week?
Why were your Constitutional Law exam questions, composed by you as a U of Chicago ‘lecturer’ grammatically substandard and obsessed with gay and minority rights?
Why do you let people get away with misrepresenting you as a professor, when you were never anything even close?
How long DID your father live w the family after your birth. Why have you continued to misstate the truth long after it emerged in the public domain?
Have you ever traveled on an Indonesian passport?
On what basis did you apply to Occidental? Was it as a foreigner? Will you release the application, to lay the issue to rest?
And on and on.
That too is a good question. As a Malignant Narcissist, Obama would lie with every single answer he gave...BUT, he would also get angrier and angrier. MNs do not like to be questioned or challenged. Normally he makes sure he’s never in a venue where this can happen. If you won dinner with him, though, he couldn’t very well storm out after ten minutes, nor could he order you to be ejected just for asking questions.
It could make for an interesting night.
It would be pay per view! The haul would be spectacular.
But you’re right. This ‘drawing’/lottery will be rigged. If every TEA partier in the country sent in a buck [or a nickel, which would be funnier] we would still not have one chance in a million. They will see to it that a starry-eyed sycophant wins. Probably a DUer.
