[8\|] Are you fucking blind? quote: Friend -- If you've ever wanted a mug that says WORLD'S GREATEST DAD/MOM/GRANDPARENT/KID, it's time for you to earn it. Chip in $3 or what you can today, and you'll be automatically entered to take your family out to New York to meet with President Obama. When you get back home, you can look at that mug and think, yes, I am the world's best. This quote is from Kirata's link. I was looking at the official rules in the link provided by THB, and it says: quote: Prizes. One (1) winner will receive the following prize package (the "Trip"): Round-trip coach-class airplane tickets for winner and up to three guests from the major airport closest to the winner's address within the fifty United States, Puerto Rico or the District of Columbia to Garden City, NY ("Destination"), including ground transportation to and from the airport at the Destination; Two (2) nights accommodations for winner and winner's guests at a hotel to be determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion; The opportunity for winner and winner’s guests to attend a DNC event in Garden City, NY on October 16, 2014 So, the winner gets an opportunity to attend a DNC event where they might get to "meet" Obama, but perhaps in the context of being in a receiving line and only shaking hands. It's not like they'd get the opportunity to sit down and have a nice, leisurely chat about national or world affairs. I don't recall boo or anyone else saying that you would...can you tell me the Post number where that was said? The link in question was in post #6. Again, I don't recall that boi or anyone else stating that you would get a chance to chat about world or national affairs. I recall his sarcastic spiel about meeting the Prez...

FR Thanks for the links, folks. I noticed in the official rules and also on the donation-amount page that you don't actually have to contribute to enter and that doing so doesn't increase one's chances of winning. I can see how this might seem a bit goofy or tacky, but I'm not sure it quite rises to pimping the President. But then, I've seen variations on this (lunch with the bishop, a behind-the-scenes tour of the Elephant House) in fundraisers for church and charity. Far more troubling to me are the bipartisan practices of awarding ambassadorships to big donors and "cashing in" on the office after leaving via rainmaker gigs at Carlyle or elsewhere and stratospheric lecture fees. I like to think I'm even-handed enough that I'd view this the same way if the GOP had done it. The venue--Garden City, NY--is where my maternal grandparents lived, so I'm keenly curious to know where in town the President will be.

I apologised because I missed what his link stated, yours did not. You accused both of us of lying and neither one of us were. But that's ok. I really didn't expect anything more from you. You are predictable if nothing else.

In this post... quote: ORIGINAL: Politesub53 quote: ORIGINAL: thishereboi I often see shirts and mugs like this and often wondered just what made them the best....well now my question has been answered. Apparently all you have to do is pull out your wallet and pass a few buck to the folks on the left. At least according to the email I just got that said... If you've ever wanted a mug that says WORLD'S GREATEST DAD/MOM/GRANDPARENT/KID, it's time for you to earn it. Chip in $10 or what you can today, and you'll be automatically entered to take your whole family out to New York to meet with President Obama. When you get back home, you can look at that mug and think, yes, I am the world's best. Gotta love a political party that is willing to pimp out the POTUS to make a few bucks. It just goes to show some of you idiots will believe anything. [8\|] (according to the email I just got) You get some sort of spam email and in your glee to show how very nonpartisan you are, you claim it as fact. Adding a sneaky get out clause that anyone can see through (according to another email I just got) Next you will be telling people Obama is a Muslim or Michelle was waving the Chinese flag around. Not only did you imply I was lying you also implied I have something against muslims. But I am used to your lies so I was not surprised. And you also implied the link was bullshit here. quote: ORIGINAL: Politesub53 Neither of the links mentions meeting the President. [8\|] Now perhaps if you put down the bottle you wouldn't have such problems remembering what you posted but I won't hold my breath. In fact i would be willing to bet you will now claim you meant something else but it won't change anything.

quote: ORIGINAL: thishereboi Gotta love a political party that is willing to pimp out the POTUS to make a few bucks. WHAT!? You can't be serious! Somebody actually did that? I mean, aside from the regular $5,000-20,000 plate dinners with the prez (almost all of them, in current dollars, in recent decades and centuries) that have been around for eons, ... Or, if they would actually tour the prez for purpose of gain of the party... Apparently, this is as brand new as it is obscene. Sharp eye you got there, girl. What political party would ever stoop so low as to pimp the prez for cause of the party? (shakes my head ... if I could only desperately keep from laughing my arse off ... )

Edwynn -> RE: Who knew it was so easy to be the best (10/9/2014 6:39:30 PM)
Right. And that's where yours isn't? in claiming that anything about this is a new phenomenon? The view is much better from outside, sweetheart.

KYsissy -> RE: Who knew it was so easy to be the best (10/9/2014 7:03:22 PM)
It's is smart marketing strategy really, raffling off a chance to meet the prez. They will no doubt collect a pile of cash, after all, it is only a few dollars, many will chip in on the off chance they win. And on the backside the dems get to claim a groundswell of small donor support, the common folk, who felt compelled to help out no matter how small the amount they were able to contribute.

Edwynn -> RE: Who knew it was so easy to be the best (10/9/2014 7:47:20 PM)
Glad you helped out. I'll try to help out too and make the minor suggestion that you might want to change the earlier date on Will Rogers. You've got the nine and the seven backwards.

Try reading my posts again Boi. Firstly, you never posted any link to back up your story, secondly I never implied you hated Muslims. Stop making shit up.

quote: ORIGINAL: Politesub53 Try reading my posts again Boi. Firstly, you never posted any link to back up your story, secondly I never implied you hated Muslims. Stop making shit up. there were two links posted when you made the statement "neither of the links mention meeting the president". One was from K and the other was from me. Now it's possible that you forgot why you said it but it shouldn't be that hard to follow a 2 page thread even for you. As to never implying I hated muslims what was this crack supposed to mean "Next you will be telling people Obama is a Muslim or Michelle was waving the Chinese flag around. "

Of course you didn't actually announce that you were that unaware outright, but given that this has been going on for eons by both parties your announced snickering comment re "Gotta love a party that would pimp the president" displayed your ignorance on its own just fine, TVM. But thanks for flapping.

Point out anything in your post quoted here where I say you hate Muslims. That you cant figure what it actually implies is your problem and not mine.
