The President Sends Me E-Mails

Posted on | January 28, 2010 | 10 Comments

Once you’re on his list, you get ’em all the time:

Robert:
I just finished delivering my first State of the Union, and I wanted to send you a quick note.
We face big and difficult challenges. Change on the scale we seek does not come easily. But I will never accept second place for the United States of America.
That is why I called for a robust jobs bill without delay. It’s why I proposed a small businesses tax credit, new investments in infrastructure, and pushed for climate legislation to create a clean energy economy.
It’s why we’re taking on big banks, reforming Wall Street, revitalizing our education system, increasing transparency — and finishing the job on health insurance reform.
It’s why I need your help — because I am determined to fight to defend the middle class, and special interest lobbyists will go all out to fight us.
Help me show that the American people are ready to join this fight for the middle class — add your name to a letter to Congress today:

We have finished a difficult year. We have come through a difficult decade. But we don’t quit. I don’t quit.
Let’s seize this moment — to start anew, to carry the dream forward, and to strengthen our union once more.
President Barack Obama

The e-mail had a big “donate” button at the bottom. Speaking of which, have you hit the tip jar lately? Like the man said, “seize this moment.”

    …”seize the moment”: I think Obama meant, “seize the money” with that big donate button. You know, ‘Carpe Dollar’.

    Following up, Spock’s favorite phrase, Fascinating, well no not really.

    President Addresses Nation “There’s Seventy Minutes I Can Never Get Back”

    Yeah, I’m Just Not Feeling It.

    What does the President need to do for a bump in the polls hint this isn’t it.

    Did The Phrase the President used “I Won’t Give Up, Don’t You Give
    Up” Sound familiar to anyone else? Train “Calling All You Angels.

    Well since there has been an Earth – there has been a climate, and it has been changing. How does one Fight mother nature, and make her stop changing the climate?

    The progressives won’t use Global Warming anymore because of the hoax so they changed it to Climate Change. This is just dumb. Of course there is climate change and water is wet.

    Increase transparency. “What the heck is stopping you now?” Just turn on the cameras for crying out loud!

    Fighting the lobbyists…except when I appoint them as czars.

    Taking on the banks….and shaking them down for every dollar we can.

    And all of this was just a speech, not a proposed bill, not proposed drafted legislation that he crafted, just punditry and politics at its very callow preening best.

    I received almost the exact same one, but, mine asked me to donate $15. You know, a few hours after Obama whined about the perpetual campaign.
