President Obama and DNC announce $75M July fundraising total

President Obama's fundraising numbers for the month of July were released hours ago and the total is about three-quarters of what Mitt Romney and the RNC raised during the month.

Report from the Washington Post:

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama and the Democratic National Committee raised $75 million in July for the president’s re-election campaign.

The total was well below the $101 million that GOP rival Mitt Romney and the Republican National Committee raised last month. July is the third straight month that Romney and the Republican Party have raised more money than Obama and the Democratic Party.

Obama is also facing an onslaught of fundraising by well-funded, GOP-leaning political action committees.

Obama’s campaign says 98 percent of the $75 million it raised came from people who donated in amounts of $250 or less.

The campaign says the average donation was about $53.

Similar to Romney, a huge percentage of donations below $250 which means there will be plenty of room left for August and September fundraising drives with repeat donors.

    Similar to Romney, a huge percentage of donations below $250………….What they mean is the same CEO's donate (aka invest) on behalf of their workers to both Obama & Romney.

    List of the 1 Rebublicon and 97 Democrooks THAT voted against Audit the Feds!

    Make sure you NEVER forget these 98 enemies of We, the People — who want a Secretive Private Organization (The Federal Reserve Board) to perpetually print phoney paper promissory “Federal Reserve Notes” (look at the top on any paper money in circulation to see it is JUST A FED NOTE) as REAL DOLLARS!

    The ORIGINAL US Constitution empowers only the Department of Treasury to issue REAL MONEY —US Dollars — and PROHIBITS any Private Organization from doing so upon severe penalty!

    Yet, these anti-American politician-puppets, voted to support the destruction of our Original Constitution by siding with the NEVER Audited in 100 Years Private Entity known as KILL-THE-US-DOLLAR Federal Reserve Criminals, Inc.

    Do your LEGAL best to make sure these creatures NEVER hold Office again!

      LOL — just called Harry Reid at (dial 1st *67, then the number, or ALL YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION will become available to THESE CRIMINALS IN POWER) 202-224-3542 press #1 — pressing#2 option gives you a message that disconnects! (Of course, only an aid would actually answer the phone), and he lost his speaking abilities when confronted with the following Logic!

      I asked: As a US Citizen, I’d like to know Why is Harry Reid is opposed to allow Audit The Feds Bill on the Senate floor?

      Trained tool replied: I cannot comment on this, BUT can I take your Name, Address, Phone Number and e-mail, so I can forward this to Senator Reid?
      (NEVER give any of this — but continue).

      My reply: Give me a YOUR valid e-mail, and I’ll be happy to send this as a US Citizen to Harry Reid — since, I do not divulge such information over the phone.

      Trained tool replied: Sorry, we cannot give you our e-mail! Voice your concerns here, and I’ll pass the message to Harry Reid…(LOL…like it would!).

      My question: Doesn’t your boss, Harry Reid, agree that Anyone — such as I, you, Harry Reid, even the Prez, ALL private individuals and companies …in America CAN be AUDITED?

      Trained tool replied: Hmm, yes, I think so. (LOL, it thinks!)

      My response: So why is Harry Reid for auditing all BUT ONE — the FEDS? Why would he be against a SINGLE Entity (the one printing paper money) be the ONLY EXCEPTION!

      Here is where I got disconnected…LOL!

  • Surfisher

    p.s. Also phoned today R. Turner (Turncoat that voted as the ONLY ONE Republican against Audit the Feds)!

    Same results as Democrooks Harry Reid’s aid… “I cannot comment on this, BUT can I take your Name, Address, Phone Number and e-mail…"!

    A WIN for ALL Real Americans — the NASTY Cybersecurity Bill (and all it’s illegal riders…such as the 10 rounds or LESS Gun Magazines PROHIBITION) failed to pass in Senate (42-46)!

    Beware, it WILL be introduced again…after the “Election”!

    Commissar Lieberman bemoaned: ““This is a moment of disappointment that I really cannot conceal,” Lieberman said after the vote.
    ———————————————————————————–

    This PERNICIOUS Bill was sponsored by these TWO anti-Americans: Sens. Joe Lieberman, I-Connecticut, and Susan Collins, R-Maine!

    Make sure you do your LEGAL best to get these two creatures out of Office!
