Texas birther Louie Gohmert must be peeking at Obama’s Blackberry. How else would he know the reason for the arbitrary choice of August 2nd for the debt deadline? Gohmert will tell you with certainty that Obama is flying in all kinds of big money celebrities, the better to hit them up for campaign donations right after they sing Happy Birthday! This ploy sounds so tacky that I expect to hear of a spate of Republican birthday parties very soon. If you’re wealthy, you’d be wise not to take the bait. P.S. Invite Louie Gohmert, he gets really snarky when he’s not on the guest list.
