Last night Obama headed to the Upper East Side to wine and dine Wall Street.
The DNC fundraiser at tony restaurant Danielcostattendees $35,800 each, and a source told Ben White at Morning Money that the event netted $2.4 million [...]
Marc Lasry was there, as expected. So was Orin Kramer.
According to Dealbook, the menu included:“Maine lobster salad with roasted beets, duos of Black Angus beef, braised short ribs with young spinach, and roasted tenderloin with stuffed potato and hen of the woods.”
The meal was prepared by Daniel Boulud himself.

Wow. How did they get through the protestors?
Oh. Wait. They probably don't allow grassroots efforts to take root on The Upper East Side.
Wow! Soros must be paying those astroturfers real well to afford $35,800 dinners with man-child in chief.
dammit.. I missed breakfast this AM and this is making me HUNGRY
Wall Streeters are buying protection from the Chicago mob, an example of
federal power corrupting the entire American system. The Founders never would have stood for this bullying, oppressive government that extracts bribes from businesses in this blatant manner.
Just an alert, Hussein’s fundraiser was about 2 and a half months ago...looks like he waited until the checks cleared before setting his thugs upon the towns.
Wall street should be flooded with flyers detailing this little extravagaza.
bttt
Apparently, these Wall Street contributors ate a lot better than the Obama supporters at the St. Louis fund raiser. All they were served for a $25,000 donation was pizza and beer..........
The fundraiser was organized with help from the proprietor of Pi, the area pizza restaurant whose fare the president first tasted in St. Louis on the campaign trail in 2008.
The president later invited Pi’s pizza makers to prepare a meal at the White House.
The beer at the fundraiser was also served with the president in mind: “Baracktoberfest,” bottled by Schlafly brewing company.
Bottom up, top down, INSIDE OUT....
Looking for a job???

FAR LEFT Advertises on Craig’s List for Paid Activists to Fight Wall Street
The pro-Obama Working Families Party of New York posted this advertisement on Craig’s list. They are looking for energetic progressives to help them to fight to hold Wall Street accountable. And the pay is $350-$650 a week depending on the responsibility and length of time of staff.
bump.
I don’t think these protesters necessarily endorse Obama. Like this libblogger they probably agree that he is far too compromised to be the guy fighting for their positions.
Push comes to shove they will likely still vote for him though...if only because Rick Perry is to them some ghastly combination of Satan, Hitler, and George W. Bush.
