There is no way for you to spin it, he has done more fundraisers than the last 5 presidents combined.
"Obama is spending as much time fundraising as any past President running for re-election" That is a lie or ignorance on your part.
Doherty, who has compiled statistics about presidential travel and fundraising going back to President Jimmy Carter in 1977, found that Obama had held 104 fundraisers by March 6th this year, compared to 94 held by Presidents Carter, Ronald Reagan, George Bush Snr, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush combined.
Since then, Obama has held another 20 fundraisers, bringing his total to 124. Carter held four re-election fundraisers in the 1980 campaign, Reagan zero in 1984, Bush Snr 19 in 1992, Clinton 14 in 1996 and Bush Jnr 57 in 2004.

BTW Heb, John Kerry didn't have to fund raise, he's one of those 1% "percenters" --- a multi millionaire if not more.
Actually, in 2004 Bush raised almost TWICE as much as John Kerry. He didn't do that by sitting in the White house for most of the election year. Obama is spending as much time fundraising as any past President running for re-election. Whether the President is Democrat or Republican, it's unfair to critisize the President for spending time fundraising, because if he doesn't then that gives the opposing nominee an unfair advantage.

Little bait and switch there Heb? First you criticize Bush then all of a sudden it's not fair to criticize a POTUS for spending time fundraising? Well, surprise, surprise, your messiah Obama, is a millionaire too. And again, he has been campaigning non stop for 3 1/2 years on tax payers money and when he's not doing that he can be found golfing. Yes, Romney is a millionaire and he has worked for every penny of it. And, Romney's $$$$ is a drop in the bucket compared to that birdbrain, John Kerry.

As far as Rush goes, I am a Conservative Republican and I don't like him much more than I do Obama.
As far as what Obama has not done -
HE HAS FAILED TO FULFILL HIS DUTIES AS PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
I cannot possibly state it any plainer than that.
Come November, Obama is finally going to suffer the consequences of his sham of a presidency.
and even then the people who have the real power is congress
i prefer him out on the campaign trail rising money,that way he os not wasting MY hard earned money he confiscated by giving ot to Solyndra pr his other buddies. besides, i am sure his bar tab from all his vacations has gotten pretty big too
It's also very bad behavior to lie or perhaps it's just pure laziness that prevents you
from looking further than your nose for the truth.
