Despite the recent public lashing President Obama gave millionaires and billionaires, in private, Team Obama is once again diving into the pockets of the super rich to fund its campaign.

With the 2012 campaign barely under way, Obama has already raised some $35 million from the biggest donors -- so-called 'bundlers' who collect money by the truckload from the wealthy elite

so is this why President's give tax breaks to the richest Americans ?..so they can get it in the form of campaign fund's around election time ? ...what a bunch of freakin dirt bag's.

    C'mon Godfather. Fox News is notorious for creating labels for the hatred they feel toward Obama. This isn't real news!

    I'm talking about obama and the other presidents that give the rich tax breaks...is this one of the reasons they give them the breaks ? Fox's hatred towards obama has nothing to do with my question,as I said in my op "president's"...maybe not "real news"...maybe real old news ?

    I'm just commenting on your link and the title of the thread. To me, this is really nothing but typical Fox/Republican tactics!

    And as biased as fox news is the others are just as bad IMO. They all have to report to their base audience and advertisers. So fox is no different then CNN,MSNBC,CBS, or ABC. They just report what they are told instead of the actual news. They all report gossip more then actual news anymore. Example Casey Anthony is not news it's just a distraction.

    ...
    Also... aren't the super rich the ones who create all of the jobs and should not face any tax increases? And aren't campaign contributions... tax deductible?

    fox is the right what msnbc is to the left, you should not go to either for a balanced pov. flame on CNN all you want (they certainly have a shallow talent pool currently), but they offer more balance than the other 2 combined. if you spent anytime watching CNN over debt fiasco, they were giving ample amount of time to tea party activists and house members. yes the lemon dude had a show down w/rand paul but across the board, the left AND right were represented.

    does anyone watch network news anywmore? sorry-cannot comment on abc-nbc-cbs...

    sorry off topic and i believe as other's have said, obama will scold the rich publicly and hold his hands out privately. that said, EAT THE RICH!

    I just see the irony of FOX News (i.e. Rupert Murdoch and crew) crying about the rich when they were the ones... and will be the ones complaining about tax increases for the 2% of Americans that make over $250,000.00 annually* because 'They create the jobs for the 98% of us making less than $250K a year.
    I don't know about the rest of you, but I earn a pretty good salary and still making way less than $250K a year... I would not be affected by a tax increase.
    Q: Guess who would be affected?
    A: Rupert Murdoch, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Glenn Beck, Bill O'Reilly, Ann Coulter, Karl Rove, Sarah Palin and just about every other talking head on the FOX News Channel.

    it would also hit the celeb's on the high end and sports players that easy tripple the $250,000 mark.

    Yes... but, they aren't the ones crying over the airwaves and into our homes about the poor, oppressed rich people getting their taxes increased, are they.

    Note: Please, look up the word, 'irony' or 'ironic'.
