President Obama has personally given $5,000 to his own reelection campaign, an official confirms to POLITICO.  Yesterday, Michelle Obama’s rather lavish $6,800 blouse/jacket was in the headlines.   So his $5,000 self contribution is actually less than he would spend on a shirt for Michelle.    No biggie…. they feel your pain and stuff,… really.  No, wait,  seriously… 

WASHINGTON DC – In an email to supporters this morning, Obama said that he had given to his own reelection campaign  [$5,000] for the first time as a symbolic gesture.

“On its own, what I gave won’t be enough to surmount the unprecedented fundraising we’ve seen on the other side, both from our opponent’s campaign and from the outside groups and special interests supporting him,” Obama wrote. “But we have always believed that there’s nothing we can’t do when we all pitch in. That includes me.”

Michelle Obama and a single $6,800 blouse – Which, according to lefty media Obamanomics, now creates jobs or something…
