She has personally contributed more than $200,000 to Democratic candidates and committees since 2008. The Pollaks hosted Obama at their Miami Beach home in June for a $40,000-per-plate fundraising dinner, and hosted a similar event with Michelle Obama in July 2008.&#8221; So the Obama phone program is administered and being profited off of by an Obama donor and his wife.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Do you remember that we had a sound bite from a woman in Cleveland last week who was there protesting Romney?
