Obama Films Campaign Ad In White House, Violating FEC Laws

Obama 2012 campaign: President Obama himself makes an unexpected announcement about the upcoming “Dinner with Barack” contest.

To participate in the contest you need to donate at least $5 to the campaign and your name will be raffled off to enjoy a dinner with the President, airfare and accommodations included. In a new web video, Obama announced Vice President Joe Biden will also be attending the dinner.

There is one problem, however. This campaign ad was most likely recorded in the White House, which would violate FEC campaign finance laws.

Consider this: Take a look at this weekly address delivered by Obama in February. Below is a screenshot taken from the weekly address followed by an image taken from the campaign advertisement.

OMG!! This is terrible. It’s much worst then all of the bullshit of the Bush administration and those guys in the party of no. We have to get some teabaggers on this right away.
