WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama is raising money for his re-election campaign from a small group of wealthy donors who each paid $35,800 to meet with him at a hotel near the White House.

Friday's fundraiser at the upscale Jefferson Hotel was closed to media coverage. Obama's campaign said about 20 people attended.

It was likey closed to media coverage because the attendees were members of the beltway media.

Would love to hear what was said at this meeting.....Obama telling the fellow Commies how he is going to wreck America in his second term?

Only the 1%’ers are invited to the Bam Dinner Shows but the 99% OWS types will never hold their hero to any account. Doesn’t fit their agenda even though the criteria does! LIEberals......

"Obama's campaign said about 20 people attended"

While that is a lot of money, it sound like he's lost that magic touch, that isn't many people.

20 drooling left wing fools with more money than brains.

Either that or the owners of Green Companies looking for more money.

Compared to Obama, Dick Nixon was an innocent choir boy.

I want the Republican nominee to call out Obama on this fund raising hypocrisy. I want him to be challenged to donate his campaign money to lower the National Debt. When Obama says, ‘I will if you will’ (sounds like something he would say), our nominee could say, ‘I didn't spend it, you and your Dem House and Senate did!’

Considering the Obozo’s history of using tax payer money to payoff his friends he likely guaranteed them a 1,000% return on their investment, oops, I mean donation.

You’ll notice that the ObamAllah is too busy working on his re-election campaign on company time to play any golf on company time in 2012.
