Obama out of touch

The president’s latest fundraising ploy shows his hubris beyond anything else he’s done. The self-absorbed-in-chief wants you to tell your friends not to buy wedding or birthday presents for your special occasion. Instead, he wants you to tell your friends to send that money to his re-election campaign.

Isn’t he the same guy who spends millions of dollars of your money per year on his own family vacations and weekly parties at the White House?

Isn’t he the same guy who claims the rich are out of touch with the average person?

Well, I know at least one rich person out of touch: Obama.
