Noting is wrong with voluntary donations. And there is nothing wrong with admitting you're such a lame duck president that you have to buy someone to stump for policies that the American people will not support. Now that his little twitter brigade has gone back to loafing in their parents' basement, job over they showed up the one day in four years they needed to, he is totally irrelevant and a lame duck because his followers don't follow issues. It says far more about Obama's mile wide and centimeter thick support than it does anything else. Frankly I hope the rich and corrupt waste all sorts of money on his gun grabbing propaganda SuperPac.

Hmmmm, let's see....Phrases like "buying political favors" and "corruption" come to mind.

According to Common Cause, the President is considering a plan to hold in-person meetings four times yearly with those who raise $500,000 or more for his lobbying group, Organizing for America.

It doesn't take a genius to understand that this is simply a pay-to-play plan.  If you are willing to pony up half a million or more, you, too, can have a sit-down with the world's most powerful man every three months (presumably, the President will make time for you between vacations, rounds of golf, and scaring the country).

Of course, this step -- if taken -- would merely formalize...
