What, Clooney Can’t Hold A Fundraiser Here In The USA?

This is so not going to help Obama shake the whole “elitist” thing.

Academy award winning actor George Clooney is set to host a fundraiser for Barack Obama in Switzerland next month.

The event, taking place on the evening of September 2 in Geneva, Switzerland will be split into two parts: a reception and a dinner. According to Obama’s National Finance Committee, tickets for the reception where Clooney will speak are going for $1,000, followed by a dinner at the home of NFC member Charles Adams for $10,000 a plate. Space for the dinner is limited to 75 guests.

Yep, because Barack holds such a comfortable lead and has no more campaigning to do stateside he has time to jet over to Geneva to attend a big-ticket fundraiser hosted by a celebrity. Again, I ask, if these people like Obama so much why do they keep putting him in these positions?
