It was with a heavy heart, as I have been contributing since he won the primary. In my retirement I feel I have no choice but save my money for living expenses. Who knows what type candidate he is gathering this money for?

Obama is showing that he is a social liberal and fiscal conservative. A Rockefeller Republican. He and the 1% are laughing at you.

I campaigned for him. He stabbed people in the back.

A crock of shit.

Excuse me while I burn my inauguration invitation (suitable for framing).


Not another nickel from me.

Not that he or they care about moi, but I guess if enough people let them know they afre unhappy with his behavior something might sink in

From the website...
Does President Obama support the establishment and activities of OFA?

OFA is advocating for the agenda that President Obama has presented to the nation, and as an organization dedicated to this purpose, OFA has been grateful for the expression of support for its work by the President, Vice President and First Lady. Although it was privately established and will be privately operated, without government funding, OFA will work hard to retain the support and confidence of the President by effectively advocating for his Administration's core agenda. It also looks forward to working with other civic organizations that are similarly committed to the successful enactment of this agenda.


Asking for money so we can organize to cut Social Security... Not something that will work for me.

you didn't unsubscribe when Obama caved and took 700 billions away from Medicare recipients? That wasn't bad enough for you, bu something that hasn't happened, is?

or you don't. Obama didn't take 700 billions away from Medicare recipients, he took it from private and over-charging Medicare providers.

Are you mis-informed or do you have something against cracking down on waste, fraud and abuse?

That said, what he is planning to do now is reprehensible.

That's a rw talking point, by which I guess you're ironically suggesting Brigid is a troll.

Here's something that did happen: Obama put SS cuts on the table. Rationalize the reasons behind it any way you like, but you can't change that fact.
