Oh, give it up already.
Got this in my inbox just now.
President Obama will sign this executive order if he hears from Douglas Berry today.
Give me a break. Unless the President of the United States has memorized the names of every single person who contributed $50 to his 2008 campaign, or if he's secretly a GURPS geek who thinks that GT:Ground Forces is a great book, Obama has no fucking clue that I even exist.
Yes, I understand that we live in an era of mined data and robo-activism, but I'd rather get a generic email begging for money that something tries to make me out to be the final word on what the leader of the free world does. If I have that power, I have a few other requests to make!
