When we picture “intimate dinner” there’s candlelight, a bottle of wine and a table set for two.
But hey, everyone’s definition is different.
Monday evening, President Obama had dinner with mega Democratic donors Jeff and Lora Drezner at their sprawling $5 million bungalow on five acres in Potomac, Md. The Drezners gave a combined $100,000 to candidates and political committees in the 2012 campaign cycle.
For the bargain price of $10,000 per person, or $32,400 per couple for VIP status, (that better be some spectacular filet) you could enjoy an “intimate dinner” with special guest Barack Obama, according to the invitation posted by the Sunlight Foundation.
This marked the fifth of Obama’s six fundraisers for the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee before the end of the quarter, according to a DCCC aide.
The small party drew 65 guests. Can’t get more intimate than that.
But not every meet and greet with Obama costs a small fortune. Before the dinner, Obama made a small surprise stop at Little League games in Northwest Washington, according to the pool report.

Hmm, it seems that some rich people are acceptable. Is Obama going to redistribute their wealth as well or is he only targeting rich people he doesn't approve of? This guy really talks out of his ass.
