Got a birthday, anniversary, or wedding coming up?

Let your friends know how important this election is to you—register with Obama 2012, and ask for a donation in lieu of a gift. It’s a great way to support the President on your big day. Plus, it’s a gift that we can all appreciate—and goes a lot further than a gravy bowl.

Setting up and sharing your registry page is easy

He is desperate for money. Most of his own base has turned their backs on him. Even the international media is blasting him left and right. The only sure thing he has left is MSNBC. It's all Obama all the time on that channel. If you can stomach it, it can actually be rather entertaining to watch them spin the web.

By the way, he is constantly coming to Manhattan to raise money from wealthy bankers and media types. I know because the traffic jams he causes interrupt my commute home! You have never seen so many cars for one person before. He must have 2 or 3 times as many people in his entourage as our previous President.

Yeah it's real and a total joke. I would vote for anyone who said they would NEVER do a talk show. Sorry but he has become nothing more than a showman or celebrity instead of a figurehead.

looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooolm this is the lamest atttept at fund raising I have ever seen

Believe it or not he/they did something similar for Valentines day or Mothers day. I heard several commercials for it. They were saying what better way to tell your mom you love her than a tweet from Obama. Even if your mother doesn't tweet you can show her. hahahahahaha He obviously thinks he is some sort of celebrity or idol. I have no fantasies or desire to meet him or any other ex president or even celebrity for that matter but if I did I would be respectful and polite but I dont think it would raise my heart rate any. lol

Have you heard the latest? Now he/they are asking people who are getting married to tell their friends to NOT buy gifts for them but to donate to the Oboma campaign instead. OMG is this a cry of desperation or total socialist mentality?
