So it begins. Because Obama isn't playing nice over the sequestering issue, they are now

tearing him down, claiming he has an organization where high ticket donors can get access to the White House. Just picked up the latest meme from coffee joe.

This sounds like they're rehashing the criticism from the Clinton era.

1. This is in no way comparable to Mitt Romney's victory-retreat after he became president.

2. I am really tired of the mainstream media giving credibility to this bullshit

3. It is meticulously directed for effect.

The patterns are repeating. The good thing is, that the Obama administration is very proactive at responding to these baseless accusations.

4. President Obama is one of the few level-headed people left in the country.

I'm sick of anyone on either side giving credibility to bullshit against the President.

It's unbearable to hear in the media.

It's unbearable to read on here.

5. Hey, pay to play works for me so long as he still remembers those who don't have access. nt

6. Pay to play is always a bad idea.

It's how corrupt status quos remain intact in the local arena. i.e. If the White House is getting the local story only from the big donors, they won't hear how the little donors are getting abused by them back home.

That goes for both parties.

7. Why should the very wealthy not pay to play? They have access by status.

Just keep the working men and ...women and the poor intersts at the foundation of policies and let the rich pay to play..they are going to get what they want anyway.

8. The goal is not to make it easier for them to maintain their unfair advantages.

This is one of the main ways they get special consideration to maintain that lifestyle. I wouldn't mind it, myself, except that it is interfering with our pursuit of life, liberty and happiness since it interferes with our constitutional rights.
