Obama Too Good for Your Money


Barack Obama turned up his nose at your money today, opting out of public funding for his campaign, instead saying he plans to charge it to his credit card to get the miles.


"Like I really need your stinking money," Obama told a stunned crowd. "Oh yeah, thanks for all those crumpled up ones and change. It really helps. I'm running for President, not taking an office collection to buy Janice a birthday cake." As tears began to form he then shrieked, "I don't need you!! I don't need anyone!!" then ran upstairs to his bedroom and slammed the door.


Obama's decision threatens the entire public campaign finance system which up til now ensured that ordinary, average Americans could contribute to slagging the record of war veterans.
