Obama campaign call affirms money anxiety (http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/obama-campaign-call-affirms-money-anxiety/2012/07/01/gJQAqjIpGW_story.html?hpid=z12)

Leaked details of a plaintive phone call from President Obama to some of his biggest donors this weekend offered a rare and revealing look into the typically private rituals of big-dollar campaign fundraising. The pitch also affirmed the campaign’s anxiety about lagging behind (http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/gop-super-pac-headed-by-strategist-karl-rove-reaped-4-million-in-donations-in-may/2012/06/20/gJQAZk0frV_story.html) in the money race.

“In 2008 everything was new and exciting (we were the shit!) about our campaign,” Obama told the unidentified donors, according to the Daily Beast. “And now I’m the incumbent president. I’ve got gray hair. People have seen disappointment because folks had a vision of change happening immediately. And it turns out change is hard, especially when you’ve got an obstructionist Republican Congress.” Blame it on them, hahaha ^

:sad2: Waaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh send me mo' money or we can't fundamentally change America. I can't do it in 4, but I can in 8, I promise!!! :yap:

Yes I heard this today from the Daily Beast They have tapes of Obama's calls from Air Force One Calling Donors telling him he needs more money. That he is worried about losing the House, Senate, and even the Presidency. Sounds like a man who is showing the pressure is getting to him for lieing to the American People.

All that Transparency in all of US History. :laugh:

Truly greedy people have "money anxiety" no matter how much money they have. Greed, whether it's about money or food or sex, is driven by the need for more. There is no concept of "enough". I suspect President Obama has both money anxiety and power anxiety.

I'm sure you are proud of this showroom. Odd however that there is nothing in it that looks lived in. No magazines, no paintings on the wall. Gosh, just like something out of a sales ctalog. Oh, maybe you live at SEARS. Me, I go more for Ethan Allen, traditional you know.

I suspect President Obama has both money anxiety and power anxiety.You got that right. Greed is exactly what drives the 1%ers. MORE money. MORE power.

Half white and half assed, actually.

However, I suspect it is OK with the Blads of the world if you get rich sucking off the taxpayer as opposed to doing something productive and maybe employing some people while you are at it. That is evil.

I saw this mentality explained very well the other day: The Blads of the world believe that if you burn down the rich guys house that they will live better. Of course every time this has happened, the result has been mass misery.

I don't think we should make fun of people with phobias. I have a bit of claustrophobia but I fight it and I will not make fun of a guy with a monkey phobia. If I had ears like that I might have a monkey phobia. What? Say What? Money phobia. Oh. Never mind.

Huh? He's not?? He says he is, and he's willing to revert the tax code as it was under the Clinton administration, when jobs where plentiful and the debt was sustanible. What a vicious concept!

You may not burn their house down, Blad, but you sure suffer badly from class envy. I've watched it for a while now. Did some rich guy screw you in your business?
