Apparently tiring of US soil as a source of campaign dollars, the
Obama campaign is headed overseas -- with its celebrity friends in tow.
The European Obama campaign starts next week in Paris on July 4 with a
reception organized by various fundraising heavy-hitters. Independence
Day fundraisers in Paris – now that’s a flag-waving campaign.
The Obama campaign will host events in Geneva, Switzerland in August
as part of their “European outreach effort.” George Clooney will
headline a fundraiser there, with 150 tickets going for $20,000 per
piece. There’s even more to the bargain: if you go as a couple, the
second ticket is half-off!
With the Obama campaign’s increasingly desperate campaign emails
begging for cash from the American people, perhaps the campaign thinks
they’ll find more fertile soil outside the country. Especially in the
aftermath of the Supreme Court ruling that upholds Obama’s
European-style healthcare plan, Obama’s hoping to cash in on like-minded
folks abroad. Americans don’t believe that Obamacare is a triumph; they
see it as a massive net negative, sucking our coffers dry and handing
us long-term rationing in return. Europeans, however, know nothing else.
The entitlements have already kicked in. What better place to ask for
campaign cash?
That also may be the only place Obama can still find cheering throngs.

All he's done is attack our Constitution, bad-mouth our nation, and hobble our armed forces.
Thief, yes, chief, no.
They and other pseudo sans-culottes can pay lip service to egalite' et liberte' as they piss away MORE millions of OUR tax dollars hobnobbing with a pack of snooty, elitist, thieving Euro-socialists. In FRANCE!
GOD BLESS AMERICA!

The DISCLOSE Act (S. 3628) was proposed in July 2010. The bill would have amended the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971 to prohibit foreign influence in Federal elections, prohibit government contractors from making expenditures with respect to such elections, and establish additional disclosure requirements with respect to spending in such elections. The bill would also impose new donor and contribution disclosure requirements on nearly all organizations that air political ads independently of candidates or the political parties. The legislation would require the sponsor of the ad to appear in it and take responsibility for it. Obama argued that the bill would also reduce foreign influence over American elections. Democrats needed at least one Republican to support the measure in order to get the 60 votes to overcome GOP procedural delays, but were unsuccessful.[44][45]
Disclosure laws helped shed light on who was paying for elections. However, not all money was disclosed in the 2010 election cycle and this undisclosed money was termed "dark money".[46] In 2012 the Boston Globe repeated the same term "dark money" and described money flowing from tax-exempt non-profits in the form of interest advocacy groups as "social welfare".[47]
