Queen Michelle says: Sign Obama's Birthday Card

Received by a friend. I signed up and left a personal message - hoping this would be his last term in office because of the damage he's done. In submitting, was taken to - guess what? - a fundraising page. Why is it wherever these two jet set better-than-us pretenders go, they are calling for money - for themselves or whatever groups they determine should have it.

Do you remember when our days were free of having the president's (and the queen's)visage before us every minute? Just heard on the radio he is having a sub at another endless campaign stop - to demonize Congress for not obeying his demand for more TARP funds.

What would you like to say to Our Glorious Leader on His Birthday? You can copy and leave in a comment here too if you like.

xxxx --

Every year, our family tries to come up with a fun way to wish Barack a happy birthday.

And this August 4th, when he turns 49, I have something new in mind.

This has been a big -- and hectic -- year for him. After signing the Affordable Care Act and Wall Street reform into law -- and completing his first year as president -- I think it's safe to say we will remember it for a long time.

And I know full well how much he credits this movement, and the work of supporters like you, for the change that we've accomplished.

So I'm putting together a birthday card that I would like you to sign. Together with supporters -- and me, Malia, Sasha, and Bo -- we'll wish him a happy birthday and let him know that we're ready to take on the year ahead alongside him.

Will you wish Barack a happy birthday with me?

Wish Barack a happy birthday

This year also brought a lot of surprises -- some good and some bad.

Supporters like you have helped him make the best of it -- by contacting Congress to help push stalled legislation forward, by re-engaging supporters in the political process, by giving back with service projects across the country, and so much more.

And while we can't know what the coming year will bring, all of us, working together, will continue pushing forward for change.

Will you help make this a memorable birthday for Barack and wish him a happy 49th?

Wish him a happy birthday? I think I would like to "celebrate" his birthday by wearing BLACK clothing as I think it's a sad day in our country.

I told him for his birthday to take a vacation or play some golf. Ha!

"This year also brought a lot of surprises -- some good and some bad."I am overjoyed by the truth in those words.

In honor of Obama's birthday, I suggest making a donation to your favorite conservative on August 4th for $49, or an amount ending in $49 or .$49 and signing the card to let him know. I personally think that SarahPAC or Sarah Palin's Legal Defense Fund are worth causes. Or, maybe the conservative in your local race coming off a primary victory. Be sure to sign the card and let him know about it. Happy Birthday, Mr. President.
