The President of the One Percent

This was supposed to be the most transparent administration in American history. Remember that? It was also supposed to be the administration that would look out for the “little people” and sock it to the one-percenters. As it turns out, if you raise a half mil for the president’s propaganda machine and have some long money on the hip you can break bread with the man himself.

Chuck Todd, of all people, is sounding the alarm bell. The MSNBC Obama sycophant voiced outrage at the discovery that Obama’s Organizing for Action group was “selling access” to the president at $500,000 a pop. Todd was actually regurgitating what he had learned from The New York Times, which was actually first reported by the Los Angeles Times. Could it be that Obama’s lap-dog media is coming unraveled?

Apparently, according to the reports, giving or raising a half-million bucks gets you direct access to the president via a national advisory board for Obama’s group. You get to attend quarterly meetings with the president. Now, the president and his people might argue that this group will attempt to tackle some of the nation’s more serious problems but it assumes that the nation’s problem solvers are only among the top one percent.

It may be perfectly legal or, then again, it may not. Either way, as Chuck Todd puts it, “this just looks bad.” It’s more than just looks, Chuck. It is bad. I think we’re all rather sick of the influence of big money. We just don’t know what to do about it. Banning it certainly doesn’t work as we’ve seen with the George Soros-funded, Michael Moore-fronted organizations that simply navigate around the law. But to have a president who railed so against the rich to now grant special access just for them is reprehensible.

This is nothing new for the Obamas. They’ve been one-percenters for quite some time now, posing as the downtrodden down with the struggle. The only thing they’ve struggled over is which French wine to order at dinner.

The First Lady being shoehorned into the Oscars made it glaringly obvious who the Obamas’ true friends are; it’s not the middle class who Mr. Obama evokes at every campaign stop. Even though her husband demonizes the evil rich the Academy Awards theater—which could’ve doubled as a one-percenter convention—looked upon the First Lady with doe-eyed adoration. It’s as if with a wink and a nod the Hollywood leftist elitists know that when the president talks about people paying their “fair share” he’s not talking about them. He’s not even talking about himself.

Even though he said people like him should pay a little more, he made sure his accountants fixed it so he’d pay a lot less. Despite Mr. Obama being in the 35 percent tax bracket (now 39.6 for the new year) he paid an effective tax rate of closer to 20 percent. He wrote off nearly $300,000 in deductions. Not that there’s anything illegal about it, it’s just immoral to preach to the rest of us that the rich need to be paying their fair share and then do everything you can to make sure you pay as little as you can.

Same goes for this golden access pass given to high-roller donors. It’s one thing to talk about the middle class. It’s another thing altogether to give them the same access to you that you give the rich. Yet he hides behind the veil of empathy and caring.

The most transparent administration in the country’s history, eh? Perhaps it is because, Mr. Obama, we can see right through you.
