$35,800 is an odd number. I thought it was supposed to be $3500.00 a head. The article should have included at least the number of suckers who showed up Let’s see, George Soros, the Rockefellers, the head of the Muslim Brotherhood........
“I know what I wish theyd eat, and then die.”

Have to try the White Castle menu sometime.
The more we read about rich hypocrite liberals and their expensive lavish banquets, the more my wife and I intend to follow a simple diet featuring good nutrition and ample flavor but costing a mere pittance of what gets set in front of these ruling class put-ons.
This is, by my accounting, Obama's 30th fundraiser this year... and the election is still one-and-a-half years away. He's already got upwards of $750 million in the bank.

Nah! They’re eating Grifola frondosa. A very delicious mushroom.
The reconstruction legislature of Louisiana spent $250,000 in 1867 dollars on Christmas hams.
Looks like a lot of meat on that menu. Global warming contributors!
How did they get anyone to show up for this one?Was it the IN thing in NY? Communists dine?
That, is a good one.
I heard it was all-you-can-eat man-ass. Was that another fundraiser?
“Let them eat Kale”
No, arugula. (Remember BHO’s asinine, elitist statement about it in fly-over country?)
The article leaves out a few details I’m more interested in reading about: how many attended, and who were they?
your tagline - I particularly apply it to Jews who vote for BHO.
