LOL Now that is funny. I believe you're a bit confused with who is taking advantage of people. Perhaps its the dope who asks people to forgo wedding gifts and have them go to his campaign instead.

Per the small print this "sweepstakes" would appear to be run out of Illinois.

Glenn Beck hadn't done it because he thought he'd have to make a contribution to the President's campaign in order to enter but Beck was wrong. Right there on the Obama/Biden website the invitation says "No purchase, payment, or contribution is necessary to enter or win. Contributing will not improve chances of winning."

Beck was excited. He thought he'd have the same chance of winning birthday cake with the President as George Soros. So, he filled out the form and entered online.

This message then pops up:

Barack's Birthday

Thank you. Want to increase your chances?

Your donation will be put to work to build this organization from the ground up.

If you want, you can increase your chances of winning today.

For every donation you make you will be automatically entered again for a chance to win an invite to the President's birthday party.

Obama manages to lie on his own birthday invitation – Glenn Beck

Lying on your own birthday sweepstakes is the issue but imagine Beck winning the contest and getting an invitation to Obama's birthday party as his special guest --- that would be hilarious.
I wonder if Glenn will bring his blackboard...

You know, I get all of those emails since I'm a registered democrat and signed up for them.

NEVER did I get one that stated I could sign up to meet the president 'FOR FREE'. It has always been at least a $3.00 donation.

Whatever beck supposedly got in his email is probably a spam/scam OR he just made it up.Gee, I wonder which is more likely!

wittle pubbies are running scared...!!!
