Champ Fundraising In Texas Same Day As Fort Hood memorial
2014-04-08
[Breitbart] "The president and first lady send their thoughts and prayers out to the victims and families and everyone on the base, and they're going to actually travel down on Wednesday to the memorial ceremony," White House Senior Adviser Dan Pfeiffer explained on CBS "Face the Nation" on Sunday.

But President Champ was already scheduled to travel to Texas that day for a big Democratic fundraiser with Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (R-CA).

According to a February report from the Associated Press, the event will take place at the home of John Eddie William in Houston, Texas. Tickets for the event cost as much as $64,800 per couple and proceeds from the event go to the Democratic House Senate Victory Fund

Champ is also scheduled to speak at the Lyndon Baines Johnson Library in Austin on Thursday, at a summit marking the 50th anniversary of the Civil Rights Act.
Keeping it classy, our Champ and FLOTUS.

#8  Reminds me of that story a few days about Breck Boy Edwards going to a funeral (and being refused admittance) and then 'working the crowd' at the memorial.

To be used to go on the attack of the rich. How ironic. Or maybe these people will be listed for special treatment for such bribes to the regime.

#6  "likely??"
Take that to the bank; no fundraiser then the Weasel-in-Chief would be on the links. If it was OK with FLOTUS, that is.

#5  They likely would not be going to the Memorial Service if they did not already have the fund raiser on their schedule.

#2  Out of staters, ie carpetbaggers, scooping up money. Less money to be spent on Texas Donk Governor and Senate races. Take the money and run!
