Obama's public cognitive dissonance: criticizing fundraising...then fundraising
During President Barack Obama's (D) Most Unexcellent Adventure in Cognitive Dissonance State of the Union address Tuesday night he stated:
I’ve served in Congress with many of you. I know many of you well. There are a lot of good people here, on both sides of the aisle. And many of you have told me that this isn’t what you signed up for – arguing past each other on cable shows, the constant fundraising, alwayAfter decrying s looking over your shoulder at how the base will react to every decision. Imagine if we broke out of these tired old patterns. Imagine if we did something different.
Yeah, imagine that. Well Obama certainly couldn't; neither could his staff. Taking a little over an hour to recover from his exhausting speech, the tired old patterns continued and out shot an e mail from Barack Hussein Obama. A fundraising e mail.
I hope you’re excited about the agenda I laid out tonight for 2015. Now it’s time to get to work. Chip in $10 or more, and let’s go.
Let’s go — make a monthly contribution to support Democrats now:
Thanks,
Barack Obama
Going to the suggested website so you don't have to, there was a picture of a smiling Obama urging viewers, "Stand with me. Work with me, let's finish what we've started."
Let's not. Let's really break these tired old patterns. Let's really do something different. Let's undo most of what the Obama administration started. It shouldn't take much fundraising to accomplish it.
Imagine how much better this country would be!
