OBAMA'S CRONIES GET STATE DINNER PAYOLA

When running for office Barack Obama whined about Washington payola and the politics of cronyism. Complaining that it was the largest source of corruption in Washington and he would end the practice if elected and under an Obama administration it would not only never happen but he would put an end to the practice at all levels of government.

So much for his campaign because the truth after he took office makes this particular campaign promise just one more lie in a long list of lies told by the campaigner in chief. If Obama was Pinocchio his nose would stretch from Sea to shining Sea. If you are an Obama donor or a friend of the liar in chief then you become a guest at State Dinners.

State Dinners are usually reserved for dignitaries, members of Congress, Justices of the Supreme Court etc. But for Barack Obama a State Dinner is an opportunity to reward those on his donors list giving them a chance to hob nob with dignitaries from around the world. A prime example is the Wednesday Evening State Dinner in honor of Prime Minister David Cameron of Great Britain.

No less that 41 Obama contributors were on the guest list for this State Dinner all of which donated from $100 to $500 K to the Obama campaign and/or the Democrat Party. In fact this list of 41 are responsible for $10.7 million dollars in donations for the 2012 election cycle.

This is cronyism at its worst. Donate to Obama and you become a so called dignitary invited to State Dinners and other official White House functions. This wreaks of the same trash that the Clinton's used while in office where they allowed donors to spend the night in the Lincoln Bedroom if they donated over a certain amount of money to his reelection bid.

Obama is the ultimate hypocrite. He whined about cronyism during the campaign but practices it blatantly at every opportunity. Yet when given the chance he will lecture against it showing his continual don't do as I do but do as I say arrogance. While Americans struggle to survive under the disaster that is the Obama economy that HE is responsible for, all you need do is be one of the rich he vilifies at every opportunity and donate to him and he is not only your best buddy, but he treats you to a tax payer funded State Dinner. Obama is a class act minus the C and the L!
