Obama Continues To Suck Supporters Dry - Guest Post
By joanne on November 19, 2008 at 10:45 AM in Bamboozling, Barack Obama
(Special thanks to Joanne for submitting this fine post (!) in response to my offer to let all of you readers “vent.” Extra thanks to American Girl in Italy for pitching in, and helping me prep these for publication. She’s a real trooper. We have so many more of your submissions to publish! We have to mix it up with our regular writers’ stories. But if you don’t see your submission published by the end of this weekend, please rattle my chain at susanunpc at gmail dot com. PLEASE, because my Inbox is an unholy mess. Thanks.)
Hey you! Yeah, I’m talking to you Obama supporters.
King Barack knows you paid for his Greek columns, trip to Europe and infomercial and I’m sure you’ve pleased him.
But he needs more.
Didn’t you get the email he had his campaign manager David Plouffe sent you? Stop whining about having to put gas in your tank and pay your mortgage…you’re annoying the king. Didn’t you read what David Plouffe said. What? You forgot because you were to busy figuring out how you were going to pay your bills? You ungrateful bastards. Let me refresh your memory:
“We’ll get to work transforming this country. But first, we need to take care of the DNC. Before we do anything else, we need to pay for this winning strategy.”
That’s right-you heard him. Take care of the Democratic National Committee FIRST! Then….they’ll put on their superhero costume and transform the country. But only after you give them some more money.
What’s that? You heard King Barack ended his campaign with extra cash? Well, yes as a matter of fact he did.
But that’s his money now. You gave it to him. And he decided to give it to his staff. You have a problem with that?
So open up those wallets and show him the money! Yes, he knows Christmas is coming but you weren’t silly enough to think hope and change came without a price, were you?

Thanks for sharing my rant! I posted a link back here from my blog.
What about Hillary’s debt he was supposed to help pay off?
That’s disallowed under the federal laws governing election funds.
He was suppose to get his supporters to donate to her, as she did for him.
He blew it off.
BO’s people have raised a paltry $800.000 to retire Sen. Clinton’s debt. He tacitly discouraged them from fund raising for her. Clinton’s campaign debt is approx. $7 million. She has already written off the $13 million she loaned her campaign.
There is no legal reason that BO supporters could not hold some fund raisers to pay down Clinton’s remaining debt. IF OBAMA ASKED his big donors/bundlers and pushed an internet drive for donations, the shortfall would be covered quickly. HE JUST WON’T ASK.
He just don’t care is more like it.
The sad truth that was written on the wall from day one.
So, when Obama has this attitude towards Hillary (that is reflected in his attitude towards helping to pay off her debt) why is she so “excited” (according to the WSJ) at the prospect of working for him as Secretary of State? Obama insults both Hillary and Bill Clinton during the primaries and now they both seem to going out of their way in doing just about anything for Obama. How does this make sense?
But, I’m sure she helped him raise several million for his campaign.
Ten Million actually.

Him. The horse upon which he rode in. And his little cat that sings the blues.
Goes double for O’Bannon.
I read an article today that there’s concerns about the inauguration bankrupting Washington D.C.
They need to help PAY for that too
Obama hungry.
Oh yeah!
They will pay and pay and pay!
Couldn’t happen to a brighter group of people!
The “O” Company has the key to the vault now, and the rest of the country gets the shaft!
Now that he won, his supporters are expected to pay for that too? C’mon, y’all got $5 don’t you? Hand it over, SUCKAS.
And don’t forget, once they move into 1600 they’ll need new dishes, new decorating, etc. The opportunities to donate to Obama are truly endless! LOL!!
Don’t forget that when BO & Mo start their squatting in the WH they will need to raise the budget POTUS gets to run it. There have to be at least 200 friends and relatives that need to be sequestered in the WH away from pesky people who may otherwise ask an embarrassing question or two of them or that need to seek “sanctuary” from ICE. And don’t forget the contract for the Port-a-Potties that will grace the lawn of the WH to handle those entrenched in the WH. BO will need an investigative committee to find just the right supplier of the toilets after the contractors fill out a 30 pg. questionaire that is.
It’s time for Obama to send us all $5 or more, its his turn. Let’s all send Plouffe an email asking him for two gallons of gas for our car.
Yeah, he wants to spread the wealth around, so he shouldn’t have any problem with giving us a percentage of his wealth.
Well, you have to hand it to him. He’s smart enough to know his supporters don’t pay attention. Maybe he commissioned that Zogby Poll. If anything, he surely watched the video that his supporters didn’t know the truth or facts.
Next will come the money for his Inauguration celebration, or is that coming from this DNC fund, being he has control over all the monies anyhow.
I love the reports questioning if he can raise the money from individuals instead of going to the Corporations for this. Why? He didn’t keep that promise when he need a cash infusion for his 100 million dollary mock White House stage for his Convention speech. The most and quickest way to burn so many millions of dollars for fake columns. We remember how AT&T came to his rescue and gave millions…..then Obama flipped on his position and voted for FISA. Why did no one question that bought vote?
He’s in now, he will continue doing as he did when he got elected in his other positions, what ever benefits him personally. I still love that all his broken promises for his US Senate seat fell on deaf ears. His two main campaign themes, the war and the injustices of the Patriot Act. He spent his 2 years in the Senate before announcing a run for the [bought] presidency, voting to keep the war going for those 2 years, until the next when he had to cater to the base he was playing for and he voted for the Reauthorization of the Patriot Act. Then for all those underserved and less fortunate voters, he decided the Financials Industry had every right to gauge them and he didn’t worry so much about predatory lending anymore when he voted against capping interest rates.
So wheres that “whitey” tape anyways? LMMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyway, I hear this this tape, where Larry Johnson is shown rubbing one off to Sarah Palin on the teevee, and right when he’s about to “release his confidential information” he starts screaming “Newt!” “Newt”!
Of course this is a very damaging tape, and the people who have seen it assure that it exists. It is being held in order to have the most maximum impact when it’s released.
I swear its true!!!
LMFAO!!!!!!!
Yes, it obviously is a damaging tape. Too bad the folks who say they have it didn’t release it. Like the LA TIMES refusing to release their tape, just report what it says. That’s why the Obama campaign immediately came out with stories that Michelle Obama didn’t say “Whitey” is the reason for their problems, it was “why did he”….. LOL Oh yeah, that makes sense.
LOL. No one from the Obama campaign ever said she said “why did he,” but you don’t really seem to care about the facts so what’s it to you, right?
I’ve got some land to sell you in Alaska….
The Whitey Tape was the end of this website.
Then why are you still here?
See below.
It’s natural for humans to want to gloat after being attacked and told no, you can’t for 16 months, especially here.
I’m a sore winner.
Oh, a case of buyers remorse, huh?
…your ignorance may cost the Dem’s permanently. But then again, you probably don’t care. You probably never even voted before.
Were you in this video?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=53C2-b8BOLs&eurl=http://www.noquarterusa.net/blog/
A little Preparation H will clear that up.
Actually if you are still a sore winner 3 weeks after the election, it shows me you have very little life to return to after your obsession with The One.
I think it’s wonderful that you think he is so great — why not volunteer to help his new administration — spreading negativity on websites seems contrary to all the positive “Change” he is proposing and speechifying about. I’m confused as to why you can’t find something more positive to do with yourself.
If everyone here is so wrong — and you certainly have not gone one millimeter in convincing anyone of that — why would you continue to waste your time.
How odd.
wishful thinking on Obots. Why are so many of you still hanging out here?
We know, we know, you never let facts get in the way.
Let’s take a look at the “Top Down” messaging and control Camp O did and this sample, that he put out through the blogosphere, because the media wouldn’t do any real reporting.
from Booman Tribuen…was also posted on all the other Left blogs, LIKE CLOCK WORK. They really should have learned the term, SLOW leak of information. LMAO
This was the funniest and most pathetic attempt to SPIN
From what I understand, it is a tape of Michelle Obama criticizing the Bush administration.
How you’d write it:
Why did Bush cut folks off medicaid?
Why did Bush let New Orleans drown?
Why did Bush do nothing about Jena?
Why did Bush put us in Iraq for no reason?
How you’d say it:
Why’d he cut folks off medicaid?
Why’d he let New Orleans drown?
Why’d he do nothing about Jena?
Why’d he put us in Iraq for no reason?
How Larry Johnson wants you to hear it:
Whitie cut folks off medicaid?
Whitie let New Orleans drown?
Whitie do nothing about Jena?
Whitie put us in Iraq for no reason?
So many? From what I can tell there are either 1 or 2 of us here.
So the liberal left blogs are now a part of the Obama campaign?
Should have expected that. You do loves you some conspiracy theories here.
Sorry, I live in a world based in reality.
ps - WE WON
yes we did
with Hillary’s help, of course.
Auh, I see, you can learn…ok, REPEAT. LOL
Yes honey, Obama had paid bloggers and they were all helping push your guy. It took the most incredible effort of the media and blogs to push Obama and attack his opposition for him. Oh wait, and as you pointed out, he couldn’t close the deal without the help of Hillary Clinton herself.
Reality bites sometimes doesn’t it?
Actions speak louder and if you can’t even acknowledge the ovious of what’s in front of your face, even repeating “I live in the reality world” doesn’t cut it. LOL
Obama had paid bloggers?
Wow you really are a dumb fucking moron!!!
By the way, that tinfoil hat looks just great on you.
Jonah,
A presidential election is not a sport where the winners bring home the trophy for bragging rights. It is a process where we choose the leader of our country so whoever wins becomes OUR president. The election was Obama’s job interview and winning is the easy part. You seemed to be disassociated from reality to understand that the American voters have extreme high expectations of Obama based on promises in his campaign to solve many problems facing this country.
I find it odd for you to gloat about the election on a pro-Clinton website when Clintonites are infiltrating Obama’s administration to the chagrin of the liberal bloggers who touted his candidacy. Obama’s choices for Chief of Staff and Attorney General only confirm what Hillary supporters proclaimed throughout the primaries. An experienced Clinton administration should be in the White House and Obama facing the responsibilities of his presidency, he finally realizes we were right.
Excellent. Thank you for stating this so well.
The highest bidder got it…
Happy to pay.
And why should WE have to pay for the debt Hillary racked up attacking Obama?
I thought PUMA retired that months ago.
ps - if you really care about Hillary’s debt, you should want her to take the SOS job. That way she will be able to file for what basically amounts to FEC-Bankruptcy.
You are happy to pay? Do you realize that he is giving ipods and all kinds of expensive gifts to his supporters for Christmas? Or is it that YOU are giving them those gifts?
By the way, what is Obama giving YOU for Christmas?
As long as you understand where your money is going, go right ahead and give it to him.
“I’m Linda Too”, you are pretty thick headed.
“Too bad the folks that say they have it didn’t release it”. LMFAO!! Are you seriously, really, honestly, for real, that fucking stupid?
I’m serious. I can’t believe anyone could be that fucking dumb. But then again, you are a follower of one of the biggest jackasses in the blogosphere, so I suppose I shouldnt be all that surprised….
Y’all are wasting your time on Johnny. His insults are playground material - second rate and third grade.
looks like the chickens are coming home to roost for Obama supporters. LMAO…
WOW..there are some Obots that need to get in to treatment ASAP. Obiebamakanobie wants your money…if that is a surprise you have been sleeping for the past 18 months.
I prefer the NO vote.
Maybe it’s agood thing really. Maybe he’ll fix up the economy. If his supporters don’t have money, then he can’t get at any of it. I’m sure we’ll all be swimming in dough real soon so we can give it to Dear Leader. Ok, I’m being sarcastic. That will be when the shit hits the fan, when he wants your money and you don’t have any. Then we’ll see the real Barack Obama.
“Then we’ll see the real Barack Obama.”
LMAO. You dead enders have been hailing the arrival of the “real” Barack Obama for quite some time now.
I’m sure that tape will be coming out any day now. In the meantime, you’ll have to take solace in just knowing in your heart of heart, notwithstanding actual evidence to the contrary, that the “real” Obama is going to show up any day now! LMFAO!!!
The Poster Child for Preparation H
Johnny Gentle,
From your comments you must know Obama personally and have a relationship spanning many years to be able to refute others who investigated or speculated on Obama as a person, politician or leader. If you question the existence of the mentioned tape, then you must have inside knowledge or evidence to declare its absolute non-existence. (Remember people have gone to prison for murder without evidence of a dead body to prove a person was killed.) Can you provide documented evidence that such a tape would not exist?
Wow, if my candidate had won this election, now more than two weeks later I probably would have better things to do with my life than troll the internet and mouth off to the opponent’s supporters.
Are the schools closed today or something?
Really? Something tells me if you had won you’d be doing nothing less than gloating. Gloating’s fun after 16 months of hard work and being told “no, you can’t.”
We’ll get over it eventually, but Transition’s a pretty slow period, and you people are still nutty, so it works.
Stay classy ‘bot.
Classy? What the hell is classy?
Ooohhhh you mean like calling a Presidential candidate an anti-American, Muslim terrorist?
Riighhhtttt.
You’ll never see this because I’m hours late, but I must reply.
I’ve never called Obama a Muslim terrorist. Ever. I’ve never called him a Muslim anything. Period. Search this entire site for my username. Go ahead.
I’ve called him a liar and a fraud, though. And I’ve called him arrogant. I’ll debate those points with you ANYTIME and yes I know how to do that with a little bit of class. Thx.
Jonah … you know nearly half of American voters did not choose your messiah, and most will never be fooled by that charlatan. Obama will not last forever. And if half his proposals come to fruition, he’s just going to end up Carter the Second, or worse. So websites like this allow the dialogue of concerned voters to continue. Four years will come and go. And Jonah, shouldn’t you get a job, or stop cutting school? Obama needs your donations. How much have you donated to him so far? My guess is $0. When you buy the presidency, three-quarters of a billion dollars just ain’t enough, even with illegal donations from foreign sources. So go, shoo, become productive, get a life. Being a “gloater” is not a job, it’s a sign of a personality defect.
“Being a “gloater” is not a job, it’s a sign of a personality defect.”
And what kind of defect is it to believe in every far-fetched conspiracy theory that Larry “Whitey Tape” Johnson rams down your throat?
“you know nearly half of American voters did not choose your messiah”
You’re right, Obama only received the vote from the largest plurality of voters since Reagan was elected, the messiah of the right wing. Repugs only gained in 18% of the counties in the USA. And ALL of those counties are in the south, in the appalachian region.
It’s a generational shift, as 68% of voters 30 and under voted for Obama.
The hate-merchants are finished. Hope you enjoy being a regional party.
Sarah 2012!!!!!! LMFAO!!!
Yeah, and to think Hillary got more votes than he did in the primary.
Irony, eh?
Yeah, Hillary got more votes. As long as you count the two contests that didn’t count and don’t count several of the caucuses that DID count. LOL!!!
Sorta like relying on a tape that doesn’t exist.
Suspending disbelief comes easy for you, doesn’t it?
It’s easy to see there are few demands on your time.
At least we have sense enough not to send our money to a sleazy con man.
Should we call BO and his horrid wife Louis and Antoinette? They bankrupted France which led to the Revolution which led to…well, their heads not intact. This pair headed to the WH can’t wait to get their hands on half the bailout money–hopefully all of his supporters will wake up from the deep hypnotic spell of the mainstream media and storm the inauguartion ball–oh wait he’s expecting 1 million adoring, chanting fans and he’ll get them. But then the party’s over and it will be so plain to see.
waaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh
Oh, and we’re expecting 4 million.
Who’s party? There’s a new party and you’re all invited if you’d like. But I doubt you want to party with us anti-American assholes.
Oh well.
Luckily the 70% of the country that approves of Barack is enough to get anything done we want to.
You’re lucky to jump on the bandwagon at any point.
Change you can hope in:
DASCHLE PICKED AS HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES SECRETARY
Yeah, tom daschle. Who is he? Never heard of him… there is that guy tom daschle that works at bob dole’s lobby shop but it can’t be the same same guy. Can it?
waaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh
Oh and of course there is daschle’s wife… the lobbyist:
Daschle is married to lobbyist and former Federal Aviation Administration official Linda Hall
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Daschle
And then there obama’s pick for AG. That would lobbyist Eric Holder:
Holder has registered to lobby for only a few clients since leaving the Justice Department. In 2002 and 2003, one of those clients was Global Crossing, an Internet and telecommunications company that was recovering from one of the largest bankruptcies in U.S. history at the time and hoping to be bought out by a joint venture between Hong Kong-based Hutchison Whampoa and Singapore Technologies Telemedia, a Singapore-government-owned company. Any acquisition of a U.S. company by a foreign firm can be blocked by the U.S. government. Global Crossing turned to K Street to smooth the way.
becoming44.org/content/more-holders-global-crossing-lobbying
Change you can hope in!
Wow, how positively SCANDALOUS!!!
That’s just awful. He lobbied for a telco that was going bankrupt.
Kinda makes me long for the days when our AG’s merely indiscriminately fired dozens of US Attorneys simply because they weren’t Republicans.
Or the kinder, gentler AG’s who wrote memo’s authorizing torture.
Or the every-day man AG who was anointed with “holy” oil by his father on the day of his swearing in.
But THIS?!?! THIS is much worse that any of that!!! LMFAO!!!
Oh come on. You are a rube an oborg. Nothing matters to you except: obama!
Oh I almost forgot [not really]:
Bundlers working for the Obama transition
Valerie Jarrett at least $100,000
Susan Rice at least $50,000
Penny Pritzker at least $200,000
Reed Hundt at least $50,000
The full list:
becoming44.org/content/bundlersworking-obama-transition
And yeah that reed hundt is the TPM star reed hundt.
You mean to tell me that people who worked hard to get Obama elected and those who held fundraisers for him are going to be members of his transition team?!?!
Next thing you know, Barack will be letting his Wife and Kids move into the friggin White House!!!
I am so OUTRAGED I think I’ll go back and watch that Whitey Tape again!
You mean to tell me that people who worked hard to get Obama elected and those who held fundraisers for him are going to be members of his transition team?!?!
Oh of course huge donors will run obama’s admin. That’s how washington works. That’s how washington has always worked. Change you can hope in?
So when you have a fundraiser, and you bundle that money together, it suddenly becomes your own personal donation?
If that is how logic operates in the rusty spinning wheels inside your head, well, that explains a lot about your line of thinking I suppose….
I guess Obama should have just put an ad in the paper, “HELP WANTED - NEED PEOPLE TO RUN A TRANSITION TEAM. PREFERABLY SOMEONE WHOM I HAVE NEVER MET AND SOMEONE WHO DOES NOT SUPPORT MY PRESIDENCY”.
Again I must ask. How fucking stupid are you people?
Well, kid, if you’ve got to ask, you’re dumber than we are.
Better luck next life. Karma’s a bitch.
Shouldn’t you guys be out celebrating Change or something?
After Obama backed out of the deal he made with McCain on Campaign finance, he doesn’t deserve anything…well maybe one red cent.
“Wow, if my candidate had won this election, now more than two weeks later I probably would have better things to do with my life than troll the internet and mouth off to the opponent’s supporters.”
On the contrary, making fun of dead-ender, hate-mongering, reality-challenged mouth-breathers such as yourself ranks pretty high on “things to do” right about now.
And its not because your “opponent’s supporters”. It’s that your smear-merchant sycophants. Who the hell even knows who or what you whack jobs support. I’m guessing you support imaginary tapes that justify your unfounded bigoted feelings, if Larry “Whitey Tape” Johnson is any indication.
It’s not that we’re that bored, it’s just you guys are so fucking stupid we just can’t resist.
^^^Please remove this troll.
Looks like somebody needs a Grand Old Pacifier….
Johnny Gentle = knuckle dragging mouth breathing moron
*sniffle*
Obama is one greedy b*star.d. During the primaries, he sucked the DNC dry by channeling all the money into his coffers and now, finally, he remembers…
Guess what, some of these days, he may even remember that he promises to help Clinton. That’ll be the day…
Was that supposed to even remotely make sense?
He sucked the DNC dry by funneling donations to HIS campaign into HIS campaign? Check.
He might soon remember that he promises to help Clinton? With what? Her debt? He did. He sent out a plea to his suporters, which is all he can do legally. Now, if Hillary hadn’t trashed his supporters and their candidates, perhaps we would have been a bit mroe generous in helping her, but when you lay down with wolves, one should expect to wake up with fleas (and massive campaign debt to boot).
We will see who has the last laugh. I have a feeling it wont be the Obama brain deads. So go ahead, keep up with the childish chides. It will make you even more laughable when Obama fails.
Consider yourself lucky the MSM decided to push reporting aside for “That One.” It will all come crashing down.
You are the example of one of the millions of uniformed voters this election season and it shows.
Why do you hate America?
obama loves larry sinclair
Actually Pluffernutter forgot to mention what the money will be used for … the 17 (so far) lawsuits Obama is fighting. Instead of just simply showing a copy of his original birth certificate citing hospital and doctor’s names as it should, Obama instead is paying thousands and thousands of dollars to three teams of lawyers to try to get the lawsuits dismissed on technicalities WITHOUT having to show his birth certificate!
By the way, the DNC never asked for it when he started running for President, they simply asked for a signed paper stating he was eligible. That was easy!
So what is he hiding? Why won’t he show just ONE of those 17 judges? Now two of those lawsuits made it to the Supreme Court with next actions due on Dec. 1st and Dec. 5th.
And this week it’s all over the internet that the Virginia case was dismissed with the judge saying there is no doubt he is a natural born citizen. Only problem is that when the judge and court were contacted, it turns out there was no such case. Oh shame on you Obama! Shame on you. You will do anything to be the most powerful man in the world. Anything.
There were 3 cases dismissed on technicalities but no judge has ever determined he IS a natural born citizen. So Obama people made one up! So creative!
First I would like to say that this post by your guest Joanne was great. It was sarcastic as well as honest. “That One” doesn’t care about the American people. He targeted the ignorant sheeple like Johnny Genitals who has nothing to do while waiting for his welfare check, but post in this tread more than anyone else.
If Johnny Genitals spent as much time in working, he may be able to accomplish something within his lifetime.
It was great to see another blogger getting the chance to be showcased on your site. A site that is fair and balanced. If it wasn’t, we wouldn’t have to listen to J. Genitals rant while smoking his Obama-logo’d crack pipe.
Keep up the great work Joanne. I look forward to more of your work.
Great guest post by Joanne. I’m just sorry your board is infested with some Obots, Larry.
I would have thought they should be out earning some money to donate to Oblowme.
Hmmmm…McCain’s promise was “Country First” and Barack Obama’s e-mail requesting more donations was “DNC first”.
I hope those who voted for him quickly realize….the demand for donations will NEVER end.
There will ALWAYS be one more excuse, one more campaign, one more reason to ask for more of their hard earned money.
