I got the strangest email from President Obama over the weekend… Maybe it impressed you too. Its subject was “Hey“. Probably his ghostwriter phoned it in. It began: “Eric — I need you with me on this one.” Okay, what’s the issue? Oh, money. Can you say I need you with me about money? If you’re saying ante up I suppose, but poker’s not a team sport. “Tonight’s deadline is our biggest yet, and I need everyone pitching in. Give $3 or whatever you can: [www.etc]“. Why? –is the question that springs to my mind. As a sign of good faith it would help if our president was pitching in, doing whatever he can. He finished “Let’s go,” signed “Barack“. LET’S GO?! Even being told APRIL FOOLS wouldn’t wipe that exhortation of its implied extortion.
