700 Grand Pricetag For Obama’s German Speech

You may recall a post I did sometime back when the media and the leftwing went nuts over the fact that the RNC paid 150 grand for Sarah Palin’s wardrobe. Clothing that will be donated to charity mind you. At the time I said, “much ado about nothing.”

And I was right.

Now, is the MSM and lefty’s going nuts over the news that Obama spent close to three quarters of a million dollars for his European speech that meant nothing nor did it do anything for the campaign?

Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama paid a German company nearly $700,000 for staging, sound and lighting services at a time he delivered a speech this summer in which he declared himself a “citizen” of both the U.S. and the world…

The German company, whose Web page says it specializes in theater and event management and advertises the Obama speech with numerous pictures on its marketing pages, is listed as a disbursement recipient on Mr. Obama’s most recent campaign expenditures report, filed Thursday with the Federal Election Commission.

The company was paid $667,082 by the Obama campaign in three separate disbursements in July and August, according to the FEC records. The campaign also spent another $9,018 to Bero Berlin – Eurolimousine, the records show…

For hours before Mr. Obama arrived, attendees listened to live reggae, drank beer and munched on bratwurst and steak sandwiches. Many in the crowd sported black and white Obama T-shirts with the slogan, “I want you to stop climate change.”

They didn’t become angry when Obama spent five million on the Barackopolis, why should they with this news.

Lets tally it up shall we?

Infomercial – $3,000,000.

Night of Lights in Germany – $700,000.

Barackopolis – $5,000,000.

But hey, since they take in money from all over the world using suspect credit card procedures…why should they care.

But if he gets into office we should all care….the man will spend like its going outta style.
