I just received a rather interesting email from the Obama campaign that seems to indicate the campaign has been tracking my political activity — and they are apparently upset because I have not given any money to their cause.

”Listen up,” demanded an email from Ann Marie Habershaw, the chief operating officer for “Obama for America.”
“It looks like you haven’t given yet,” the email reads.
The campaign then revealed that they used a “supporter ID” to track my donation activity.
Following is the email in its entirety:
“Friend –
This week, we need to make some of the last, tough choices about what the final push of this grassroots organization will look like — where we can compete and how fiercely.
It’s a close race, and you hold the power here. According to our records associated with this exact email address:
– Your supporter ID is: XXXXXXXXX
– Most recent donation: $0
– Total amount donated in 2012: $0
It looks like you haven’t given yet. That may be because you gave using a different email address than you’re using now — if we’ve got this wrong, I apologize.
But if you indeed have not yet given, there’s still time. Just not very much — this Friday is one of our last opportunities to plan for the final weeks of this campaign.
Can you give $5 or more today ahead of this Friday’s big budget deadline? That’s just 19 cents for each day we have left.
We’re looking at what we have in the bank by Friday at midnight in order to determine how many more offices we can open, how many new field organizers we can hire, and how fiercely we can compete in critical battleground states.
As we face these difficult decisions, the President needs your support if we’re going win.
Chip in $5 or more now, before the big budget deadline:

Thanks,
Ann Marie
Ann Marie Habershaw
Chief Operating Officer
Obama for America
P.S. — A little perspective. If we win this election, ordinary Americans will have sent a powerful message to outside groups and special interests: We’ve got this.“

Freaky, what else they tracking? Using the FBI to monitor phones for every time someone mentions Romney? Wouldn't put it past them. After all the administration is all about wiretapping without warrants.

That's the reason you have not received your "Osama is dead and GM is alive" bumper sticker.
Bob thanks I was wondering where mine was. Imagine if we used a deathly stun gun called the Volt on Osama, GM wouldn't need the bailout, Volt would sell like beer at a super bowl. But what if Osama had a labor union behind him?

Social Media Marketing at its Best/Worst. I mean, even my church doesn't hound me down, but now I 'm wondering if our Annual Archdiocesan Pledge will take notes from this. I can't say I 've gotten one from Romney yet. But I have gotten other politicians, that indicated that I didn't give last time. Or maybe its my leftover self guilt from my previous statements. 19 cents a day that's awsome!

Costco Doctor.
One day, in line at the company cafeteria, Joe says to Mike, "My elbow hurts like hell. I guess I'd better see a doctor."
"Listen, you don't have to spend that kind of money," Mike.
replies.
"There's a diagnostic computer down at Costco. Just give it a urine sample and the computer will tell you what's wrong and what to do about it.
It takes ten seconds and costs ten dollars. A lot cheaper than a.
doctor."
So, Joe deposits a urine sample in a small jar and takes it to Costco.
He deposits ten dollars and the computer lights up and asks for the urine sample. He pours the sample into the slot and waits.
Ten seconds later, the computer ejects a printout:
"You have tennis elbow. Soak your arm in warm water and avoid heavy activity. It will improve in two weeks. Thank you for shopping at Costco."
That evening, while thinking how amazing this new technology was, Joe began wondering if the computer could be fooled.
He mixed some tap water, a stool sample from his dog, urine samples from his wife and daughter, and a sperm sample from himself for good measure.
Joe hurries back to Costco, eager to check the results. He deposits ten dollars, pours in his concoction, and awaits the results.
The computer prints the following:
1. Your tap water is too hard.
Get a water softener. (Aisle 9)
2. Your dog has ringworm. Bathe him with anti-fungal shampoo. (Aisle 7)
3. Your daughter has a cocaine habit. Get her into rehab.
4. Your wife is pregnant. Twins. They aren't yours. Get a lawyer.
5. If you don't stop playing with yourself, your elbow will never get better.
Thank you for shopping at Costco!
Buhwahahahahahaha!
Appropos of nothing but funny as hell!
Need a Little humor every now and then!

Fox news is out of control. This campaign is a joke on both sides due to the media and superpacs
I don't know if it is true or not but if you think this kind of stuff does not happen ,,sadly it does!!!!
Never, ever underestimate big brother…
It is not a joke. I got one. I had decided that this year that all of my contributions would be to support the anti-fracking movement, to contribute to local causes like the kickstarter fundraiser to raise money for a new roof for our local arts and crafts colony. I know President Obama can use my few dollars, but I want to make a difference locally—and nothing is more important to me politically that stopping fracking right here in NC.
I was very disappointed to receive this kind of email.
Aliice Mulle, my sister in law received this e-mail also. When my brother saw it, he insisted they botth change their e-mail accounts and he, a die hard lieral, swore he would never donate to the DNC or a Democrat politition again

Wow yet another fine example of Progressive National Democratic Socialism.
So the McKenyan campaign wants my money eh? Tough sh*t. I need my money for my own survival more than McKenyan needs it for his own political survival. Let the boy come out of pocket, or he should just approach his fellow 1%'er, George Clooney, to start a telethon with his Holy-wood pals to raise money to save the boy's political sorry a55. His campaign sure has a lot of nerves asking for money in this laughable economy that he owns.
I also always sign up for the Breast Cancer too, I had a phone call last week asking me when I was going to donate, cause they noticed I didn' t do it yet. People for all campaigns are asked to make phone calls and knock on doors. This is not anything out of the norm. I also get calls from the volunteer fire department and sheriff office. Of course I will donate cause I may need them someday
