Obama, Biden hit the fund-raising road![]() Durham, New Hampshire (CNN) – While political observers focused on the Supreme Court Monday in anticipation of news on the future of President Obama's health care reform legislation, both the president and Vice President Joe Biden prepared to hit the road to drum up some campaign cash. The president embarks on a two-day trip where he's expected to raise more than $5 million for his reelection efforts, according to a campaign official. The trip starts with a rally at a high school in Durham, New Hampshire before taking the president to Boston in the evening for three fundraisers worth a total of more than $3 million. The first fundraiser will be at Hamersley's Bistro where 25 people will each pay $40,000 to attend a roundtable with the president. This event will be closed to the media. Then Obama will head to Boston's Symphony Hall where 1,800 people will pay between $144 and $250 to hear the president deliver an on-camera campaign speech. Finally, Obama heads to a private residence in Weston, Massachusetts where 100 people will pay $17,900 each for the chance to eat dinner with the president. |

Oh! BTW the economy is slowly but surely recovering, building permits are up, stock market higher than a year ago, gasoline prices down.
Cheer up America still is a powerhouse. Thanks to this president for putting out the Bush fire.

Jean ... in spite of your ad nauseam cheer leading, excuses, and defense of your messiah ... Americans are directly experiencing the financial consequences of Obama's failed policies ... and, opening their eyes to the non-stop lies coming from this self-serving, administration ... so, maybe YOU should wake up and smell the coffee too ... instead of trying to convince the rest of us that 2 + 2 = 5 !!!
JERRY IS SPEAKING FROM EXPERIENCE BECAUSE HE DID THAT FOR MCCAIN BUT HE DIDN'T COUNT ON SARAH PALIN FOR RUINING CHRISTMAS TOO.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
you poor poor boy. hahaha
THAT'S RIGHT JERRY. LAUGH WITH ME. LAUGH AT HOW SILLY YOU REPUBLITARDS ARE TO US.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
Here were the main selling points on Obamacare:
First, it would bring down the cost of health care. The President said families would save on average $2,500 a year on their premiums.
We now know that's not the case.
According to the “Kaiser Family Foundation,” Obamacare has already increased the cost of health care even though most of the law hasn't even gone into effect. Kaiser says 6 out of 10 Americans will see their premiums go up with the average cost for families being $1300 a year.
Costs going up, not down.
Here's the second big lie. You can keep your own insurance and doctor... remember when Obama said this?
“If you like your doctor, you will be able to keep your doctor, period. If you like your health care plan, you'll be able to keep your health care plan, period. No one will take it away, no matter what.”
Wrong again.
The latest report from “The Congressional Budget Office” and “The Joint Committee on Taxation” says up to 20 million Americans could lose their employer-provided health insurance – a direct result of Obamacare.
The other big lie was the price-tag.
The CBO says the health-care law will cost $1.76 trillion over a decade – that's double what the President said it would cost. He's off by about $800 billion – not even close enough for government work.
We were even promised Obamacare would cut the deficit! Harry Reid said it wouldn't add a dime to the deficit! There are many more of course… including the 'no new taxes' pledge.
He might get more money from Mexico where he has far more support than in the states.
I think he would make a LOT more money if people paid for the opportunity to ....?
