Obama and Reid Plan Blowout at Caesar's Palace
It's hard to remember that staid, Mormon, middle-of-the-road Harry Reid is the senator who represents Sin City, a.k.a. Las Vegas. It's kind of hard to imagine him partying down in one of the big Strip casinos, spinning the roulette wheel and spraying champagne all over some cocktail waitresses' blouses.
PD toolbar!
But that's exactly what he's going to do next week, and he's bringing his buddy Barack Obama with him!
Well, except for the roulette and waitresses thing. But the two top Democrats are indeed planning a huge fundraiser at Caesar's Palace, frequently cited as the most debaucherous casino in Vegas!
In addition to Obama, the May 26 event will feature some sexy showgirls - well, if you would call Democratic stalwarts Bette Midler and Sheryl Crow sexy.
Not invited: Las Vegas Mayor Oscar Goodman, who went on the attack against Obama last month for a disparaging remark about his city being a destination for corporate excess.

I WISH OBAMA WOULD SPEND MUCH MORE TIME WORKING and much less time partying and speechifying. All he seems to do is continue his campaign and attend parties.

So "Crazy" Harry and Obama are not representing 'all the people' after being elected. What odd bedfellows!

When do these guys ever work??? There is no doubt Mr. Obama is the perfect event organizer but isn't he supposed to be our President?? Our country is in such utter chaos and all he ever does is throw dinner parties and have fun. Come on Mr. Obama there are thousands and thousands of people who are sleeping in tents tonight without their homes, pets or even food, SO GET TO WORK AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT OUR COUNTRY THAT IS DOWN THE TUBES. PARTYING IS FOR THOSE THAT HAVE ACCOMPLISHED SOMETHING

Who the hell does Obama think he is, Nero? Partying his ass off while America burns. Obama needs to put down the rock and pipe, and start doing something intelligent to stop the country from collapse.
How desperate is Obama? Partying with Harry Reid?
Is Pelosi invited, or will she still be trying to prove that the CIA stole her brain?

Reid is so far down in the polls for re-election that Obama is down there to help him out.....let's keep our fingers crossed that Reid gets voted out bigtime......and take Pelosi with him (toxic asset)...worse than any banks.

Who is gonna pay for the whole thing including the security Why can't he do his job instead of wasting money on parties and traveling al over the world. Bush had his faults but he worked at his job. Obama makes me think he is trying to be another Blagovitch?

Pretty funny. Harry 'Mr. Cleanface' gReid does not represent anyone in NV. He has turn away from representing NV a long time ago. He's a turncoat, treasonist, kiss ass waterboy. Yes B. Hussein Obama will be here to help the treasonist raise $ for the 010 election. He is not welcome in our town as he has suggest to many companies to not come here for their conventions, meetings, parties, etc. They are both a disgrace to this great nation.
