Happy Freakin' Birthday Mister President

I just received this invitation via email. After Obama's piss poor performance in the debt ceiling debacle my first thought was to tell these people to do to themselves what Obama did to his fellow countrymen. I am really feeling like I just got fucked and didn't get a kiss after.

Maybe the timing of this email is a little too soon after Obama's cave in, but I don't feel particularly supportive at this moment. I don't think I have any alternative but to vote for Obama in 2012. Right now though I would like that kiss.

And, personally I could give a shit less what kind of birthday he has, not after that "gift" he gave to middle class America.

There maybe some who are not feeling as cranky as I am and may want to attend this function, so here is your RSVP:


2012
Friend --


Tomorrow -- Wednesday, August 3rd -- volunteers will gather at campaign house meetings across the country to continue laying the groundwork for the 2012 campaign.


This kind of organizing work matters more than ever. Now that President Obama has reached a compromise with congressional leaders to meet our financial obligations and reduce our debt, it's up to us to get the word out about how important this agreement is and why it's crucial to have a leader like President Obama in office.


Tomorrow, volunteers will talk about how to build this campaign at the local level -- can you attend the meeting in Tampa?


Here are the details:


What: House meeting


Where: 2310 N Blvd
Tampa, FL 33602


When: Wednesday, August 3rd
6:00 pm


RSVP now


At this week's house meetings, we'll discuss the best way to keep bringing new folks into the political process in our own communities and neighborhoods. It's important that folks hear about the President's accomplishments from their own friends and neighbors -- from forging this new bipartisan debt compromise to reforming Wall Street, repealing "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," and passing the historic Affordable Care Act.


Wednesday also happens to be the day before the President's 50th birthday -- and our work to build this campaign through this kind of solid grassroots organizing is the sort of gift he'll appreciate most.
