I am observing how Obama and many in the Democrat party misrepresent themselves to the American people. There is so much information and disinformation and I hope to share the angles with like minded people.

Obama Stiffs Cities with His Bills
If a city is planning to host a campaign event for the Obama Campaign, they had better brace themselves for the very real possibility that Obama does not cover the extra costs incurred at the local level. Should one try to collect from the Obama Campaign, one could receive a form letter similar to the one sent to Durham, Westport and Beverly Hills:
UPDATE: September 7, 2012 Charlotte, NC Democrats ended their convention in Charlotte $5 million short of their budget even after being forced to draw down a $10 million line of credit from Duke Energy Corp. (DUK) according to a Democratic Party fundraiser.“All such decisions, including their impact on costs incurred by federal, state or local governments are exclusively within the control of the appropriate government officials.
“Should there be a question about the allocation of expenses among the cooperating authorities, we assume that it should be directed to the U.S. Secret Service.”
That will leave a $15 million bill that eventually will have to be paid by President Barack Obama’s campaign or the Democratic National Committee, according to the fundraiser, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss internal deliberations.

Population 10,235 - Barack Obama's
reelection campaign refused to pay $20,000 in public safety costs associated
with the president's visit. An anonymous donor came forward, though and paid it
for the city. THAT is why this story made the news.

This is just a list of cities that have been made public. I'm sure there could be others which have simply gotten attention from the media yet. If you know of any more, please feel free add them in the comments section
