He's going to take that wealth from the wealthy at his birthday party and instead of giving it to his political campaign, since he's already weathy by his own tax definition, he's going redistribute it and give it to the poor. Isn't he?

Thanks I'm remember that the next time I see Republican Congressman Joe Barton apologize to an oil company for being brought before a congressional hearing about an oil spill on a rig they leased. Or here the 'Republican congressional leaders flatly refuse to close tax loopholes on corporations that are making record profits.

As to purchasing power with houses, $40,000 would maybe get you a closet in a one bedroom condo here.

Boy, this really has to irk conservatives. $40,000 a plate for a president who supposedly would lose to a lamp post?

I thought Obama's presidency was dead. I thought he was the worst president ever.

Don't forget Nancy Pelosi....

Or any of the other millionaire Democrats in CONgress.

I love it when party faithful still pretend that their party is for the working man...it makes them look so much like what they really are....

Party shills.

There are people willing to buy the President,$40,000 isn't much to get him beholden to you.
