Obama and DNC Again Fail to Pay Their Fair Share

This is getting to be a habit. or maybe it's con game. A wealthy and prominent local citizen decides to host a fundraiser and invites the President to attend along with a few score of well heeled donors. The local city government is required to spend thousands of dollars on police and other emergency responders in the form of overtime pay. When the city bills the DNC they hear this, The DNC is a private organization and did not participate in security, traffic control, fire or emergency planning. Contact the Secret Service. Then the Secret Service responds it doesn't plan events, just provides security.That was the song and dance music played after an Obama fundraiser in Newport Beach, California which I reported here. Obama raised $1 million plus and stiffed the locals for $35,000. Romney also had a fundraiser there and paid within 30 days.
On August 5 Obama appeared at a fundraiser and a state park had to be closed for an entire day. The event was hosted by Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein and again Obama and the DNC stiffed tiny Westport, Connecticut for about $15,000 after raising $2 million. Freaking deadbeats!
