And anyone else who's having a function where there is going to be gifts exchanged. I know there are other threads about this, but the way it was explained on Rush was too funny. Rush is right (he nearly always is); this is ridicule-worthy. Obama's spending so much money vaca...er, fund-raising that even his wealthy friends can't keep up.
On a serious note, this is disturbing for the continued polarization factor that has been a hallmark of this post-racial president and his administration. Polarizing obama cultists, isolating out anyone who is not (ra-a-a-acists!).

RUSH: I checked the e-mail as I always do during the break. And there's some people that do not believe our caller Andrew. They thought he was making it up about Obama asking you to forego wedding gifts. He's not. This is at the Drudge page. It's called the Obama Event Registry. And here's what it says. "Got a birthday, anniversary, or wedding coming up? Let your friends know how important this election is to you -- register with Obama 2012, and ask for a donation in lieu of a gift. It’s a great way to support the President on your big day. Plus, it’s a gift that we can all appreciate -- and goes a lot further than a gravy bowl."
He was not making it up. The Obama Event Registry. You can click on "register with Obama 2012." You're getting married or you have a birthday. You're supposed to tell your guests to donate to Obama instead to you. It's right here. Obama is asking people getting married to forego gifts for themselves and ask their guests to donate to him. It's a guy calling other people greedy and selfish. Exactly right. Now Valerie Jarrett's daughter got married not long ago. Did she forego gifts? Valerie Jarrett's daughter. Did Obama ask Valerie Jarrett's daughter to ask her wedding guests to send money to him? No way. You know it didn't happen.
