If you are on the Obama fundraising e-mail list, you may have gotten a vague hunch by now that Obama’s birthday is coming up. By my count, I have received eight e-mails in the last two weeks centered on Obama’s birthday.
It was like June's donation begathon all over again, with a new "birthday" twist.
Vice President Joe Biden, and Julianna Smoot, warned supporters that -- if they didn’t send in “$3 or more”-- they’d miss out on the “fun” in maybe being one of “two grassroots donors and their guests” who are going to be flown in “to celebrate his birthday with him at his home in Chicago on August 12th.”
Michelle Obama just begged "folks to commit to doing just one thing" to help build the campaign "right now, whether that's registering a new voter, pitching in at a local office for one hour, or recruiting one friend to volunteer.”
But, as the old saying goes, "time is money" too.
Begging supporters to “make a donation today to be automatically entered for a chance to be there—flight and hotel paid for” -- Obama’s National Finance Director, Rufus Gifford, exclaimed:
“Have you ever gotten to do something so cool you're almost jealous of yourself?”
Yes, not only is begging "cool," it's worthy of envy.
Trinko received Obama’s latest, "begging-for-dollars" Thursday.

Obama was elected because everyone that voted for him thought he was "cool". "Cool" got old real quick.
10:10 The country was desperate for a change and boy did we get change for worst this time Obamas sales pitch will not work ,Obama and his and his administration has been a total failure .
What's obama expect. People have his number now. They are seeing right thru all his lies and embellishments. He has no accomplishments to tout, nothing to run a campaign on. No one in their right mind is going to donate to him.
Now we've got romney who is a perfectionist who has taken losing companies by the boot straps and didn't stop pulling them up until they became profitable and job producing. It's a no brainer where people should and are going to contribute.
10:51 to add to your comment, Romney only used his and investors money to turn-around failing businesses. If they weren't successful then they would lose their money "NOT TAXPAYERS MONEY". I applaud them for being successful more times then not.
He's a good man and he has my vote.
