One expensive dinner!
Barack Obama had a fundraiser party in NYC tonight. Plates were $28,500 a piece. :wow:

What do you think was for dinner?! I hope it was at least an all you can eat deal...

(100 guests attended)

5. That would buy a whole lot of school supplies
I would hope that these 100 fat cats doubled their cost for dinner and donated half to
those in real need. I suspect the rich dinner guests could afford ten times that to rub shoulders
with fame.
