Obama Campaign to Re-Launch as Tax Exempt Group [You Now Will Pay More for BO's Agenda]
Politico ^ | 1/18/13 | GLENN THRUSH, REID J. EPSTEIN and BYRON TAU

President Barack Obama’s remaining campaign apparatus will relaunch Sunday as a tax-exempt group to support his second term agenda, a senior Democrat familiar with the plans confirms to POLITICO.

The new organization will be separate from the Democratic National Committee, with Obama’s 2012 campaign manager Jim Messina serving as the national chair of the group.

The effort will begin on Sunday, the day the president is formally sworn in to his second term, as Obama campaign staff and volunteers gather at the Washington Hilton for an event dubbed the Obama Legacy Conference.

The formation of the group will make Messina the de facto political director for Obama, and is an implicit rejection of DNC chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz, an Obama outsider not close to the president, as the party’s operational leader.

I’m assuming a 501(c)4.

The story says tax-exempt, which would be a 501(c)3.

So when did considerations of morality ever effect this crew? Ethics are alien to many Democrats, since they think they can get away with anything.

501(c)3 organizations cannot do anything political. Churches are 501(c)3 organizations. This is why everyone gets upset when preachers talk politics from the pulpit. Theoretically the church’s 501(c) designation could be pulled for that.

501(c)4 organizations, on the other hand, can be political. The various Tea Party organizations are 501(c)4. There are very strict reporting requirements for a 501(c)4. Much more narrow and strict than a 501(c)3.

I fully expect Organizing For America to be the most corrupt organization nobama has. Lot of ways to funnel dirty money to his friends.

It's all about money laundering.

Obama wasn't worth $1 million when he took office.

He'll leave office worth somewhere near $100 million or more.

And, in modern America, this won't be a scandal.

>>It’s up to the grass roots now to take the country back. An extremely tall order and a long fight.

Forget the grassroots. Its going to take blades of grass, or actually the rifle hiding behind each one.

The ego in this little man-child is large that anyone can imagine. He only does what makes him feel good and loved by others. It is a big cult.

This new group will have to be added to the list of leftist groups:

There sure are a lot of leftist turds in this toilet. Gibbs - the jabbering idiot from Planet X; Cutter or Cutler or whatever, another blithering coverup idiot; and the other leftist Obamamongers of the Left.

We need to organize a counter to this group and help flush them down the toilet of history.

The dems and media have been successful at labeling anyone who disagrees with obama as racists. They’ve painted themselves into a corner. Now they can never oppose him.
