I kept checking the source. This is not satire?

“I try not to pat myself too much on the back"

Gee, it must be VERY HARD not to keep doing it!

My question. Did this Jewish audience applaud this speech? Did they give Obama money?

I found this at ABC

Thirty Obama supporters each paid at least $10,000 per person to attend, said a Democratic official.

Obama also attended two other fundraisers in New York City tonight. He mingled over dinner with 45 donors who forked over $35,800 per person at Gotham Bar & Grill. Later, he spoke at a “holiday reception” at the Sheraton to several hundred supporters who paid $1,000 apiece.

The events brought to 69 the total number of fundraisers attended by Obama this year. The at-least-$1.8 million he raised tonight benefits the Obama Victory Fund, a joint fundraising account for Obama and Democrats. The first $5,000 of an individual’s contribution goes to Obama; the remainder, up to $30,800, goes to the DNC.
