Obama Fundraiser to Attend Ahmadinejad Reception?

As Rush discussed today, Hyatt Hotel heiress, and major Obama fundraiser Penny Pritzker, is rumored to be attending a dinner along with Iranian President Ahmadinejad, which will take place at the Grand Hyatt in New York.
Of course, this shouldn't be too scandalous, considering Obama, himself, has said: "I Would Still Meet With Ahmadinejad" ...
Still, there is no doubt that the Hyatt Hotel heiress is a major player in the Obama campaign. Obama's relationship with Pitzker began in the mid-90s, where Obama's brother-in-law coached one of her children (interestingly, her brother was a Hillary supporter). In 2002, during a visit to the Pitzker home, Obama mentioned to her that he was planning on running for senate. He has also vacationed at her home on Lake Michigan. The Pritzker family donated $40,000 to Obama's senate campaign.
In February of 2007, he asked her to be his Finance Chairman. That same year, her estimated wealth was 2.8 billion, and she was considered the 135th richest American.
The Pitzker family holdings include ...
Global Hyatt: Chain Consists Of More Than 200 Hotels And Resorts Worldwide, Including A Handful Of Casinos. Park Hyatt Is Its Most Upscale Brand.
Recently Acquired AmeriSuites, A Midpriced Chain With More Than 140 Hotels. Estimated Annual Revenue Of Close To $ 5 Billion.
Marmon Group: Chicago Manufacturing Conglomerate Of More Than 100 Companies, With Interests In Industrial Products, Transportation Services And Water Treatment. Revenue Exceeded $6 Billion In 2004.
Royal Caribbean: One Of The World's Largest Cruise Ship Companies. Along With Another Family, Pritzkers Own 16.5 Percent.
TransUnion: One Of The Nation's Three Largest Credit Bureaus, Which Reports Payment Histories For Millions Of Consumers. Conwood Co.: Chewing Tobacco-Maker Whose Snuff Brands Include Kodiak And Union Workman. Won $1 Billion Antitrust Ruling In 2002.
Triton Holdings: Operates One Of The World's Largest Fleets Of Marine Cargo Containers. Also Leases Passenger And Freight Aircraft.”
Apparently, she is also into subprime lending ... As USA Today reported:
Obama's national finance chairwoman, Penny Pritzker, was chairwoman of the board of a Chicago-area bank in 1993 when it adopted a subprime business strategy that regulators say ultimately led it to collapse in 2001. It will be interesting to see how this plays out. Assuming the rumor is true, will Pitzker suddenly change her mind -- or will she still attend the event?
Both campaigns have, at times, had their campaign momentum derailed by the actions of supporters and surrogates. Might this be the latest example?

On a break at your "Fortune 500 co.?" AKA, lead burger flipper at McD's? Oh I just had to throw that is there for fun!
You really like this guy Rush huh? I must remind you quickly that many pay attention to Rush and he has millions of listeners...you apparently are one of them too.
Pritzker...wasn't that the anti-American beast who put together that fundraiser for NObama in hollywood the other night. Now she is going to schmooze with Ahmadinejad? Bad, bad, bad....for NObama. How many more things need to present to the public before he is imprisoned for treason and knocked off the ballot for being so against this country and everything it stands for?

....after another breakfast of pipsqueak Obama waffles like he's been doing for the last 15 months or so.... |

bama misquoted and misled the words/meanings of Rush Limbaugh. Now the deceptive 'O' has a Lion by the tail Ha! Obama, with his fork tongue will have to eat his irresponsible, unfair words!
The false Prophet 'O' is lying more and more, until even the most dim witted can tell! Also, he just Invents his past record, since he is an emptysuit who can't make up his mind in time etc,.! God help our country! Ex Democrat |

...So it may not be.
Are people just conflating that the Iranians have reserved the reception at Hyatts to a conclusion that she would be hosting or attending?
....A women, and Jewish - that's a likely dinner guest for our charming Mahmoud.... |

I do not want to promote either Bill Maher or Andrew Sullivan now, for obvious reasons. But Real Time was really strange tonight in a strangely positive way. In response idiotic socialist crap from some chick named Naomi Klein--Andrew Sullivan almost became a conservative again. Then Sully switched back with a McCain Palin attack. Then Maher went on a rant about religion. Then Sully switched back again. It was like watching a gay version of Dr. Jeckle and Mr. Hyde or the Hulk--except Sully switched back and forth between leftist and conservative.
But, know hope.
The panelists all acknowledged that if Obama is not leading by 5-7% by November 4, he will lose. They said it was racism, but could it possibly be policy-ism? Plus they don't know how to deal with it, they all had a different attack plan and they all contradicted each other. They are scared. McCain and Palin really have them shaken. I liked that part.

Sen. Obama Says The ‘Prettiest Sound On Earth At Sunset’ Is The Muslim Call To Prayer
Obama aka Barry Soetoro attended Muslim school in the Indonesian language, which he still speaks.
“I was a little Jakarta street kid,” he said in a wide-ranging interview in his office He once got in trouble for making faces during Koran study classes in his elementary school, but a president is less likely to stereotype Muslims as fanatics — and more likely to be aware of their nationalism — if he once studied the Koran with them.
http://select.nytimes.com/2007/03/06/opinion/06kristof.html ?_r=2&oref=slogin&oref=slogin
Mr. Obama recalled the opening lines of the Arabic call to prayer, reciting them with a first-rate accent. In a remark that seemed delightfully uncalculated, Mr. Obama described the call to prayer as “one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at sunset.”

King Lib, you name fits you well.
You are a pathetic blow hard dem/lib
I will dare you to take your blow hard ideas and your so called facts and call Rush, Sean, Mark Levin.
When you do call don't do your puppeteer, talking head ideas with you, use your own brain if that is possible.
Tell them just what you believe and give them your facts. The three men I have mentioned are very intelligent and fair minded "men". Find out for yourself that the junk you are spewing on here about Rush is JUNK
Lib, I know you won't do this because you are a Coward, just like the man you are supporting.
If you are going to run your mouth get the facts and get both sides of the story.
I know I am wasting my time writing this because you don't have the stones to call any of them, its easier for you to blog and not have to prove what you are yacking about.
When you have called the three men I have mentioned then you will have the right to come on here and prove or disprove your Junk! |
