How much did Obama raise yesterday while the nation is on the verge of war?

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - President Barack Obama is raising money for the Democratic Party in California, eager to weaken his Republican opposition in Congress even as he confronts protests from his liberal flank over a contested oil pipeline project that is awaiting approval from his administration.

Obama was attending four fundraisers for Democrats in the San Francisco area Wednesday and Thursday, urging donors to help wrest the House away from Republicans and to reinstate House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi as House speaker.

Update:

Scott, You are clearly a moron. Check any news source that you want, and you will see that we are on the verge of war.

phucking idiot.

    Claims $2,430.000. - That is, if you assume that Leftists are credible.

    Leftists love it when you go down into the gutter with foul language - they feel justified.

    Sounds good to me! The liberal backed states- Maryland, all of New England- average 25-35 an hour average pay.

    The GOP states- Alabama, West Virginia, Tennessee- average $15 an hour.

    The more we can weaken the GOP, the better.

    After all, THIS is a GOP stronghold:

    segragated schools.

    In 2013.

    We have american robots exploring Mars.

    We have a couple planning an interplanetary vacation, AND THE TECHNOLOGY TO DO IT, and

    segregated proms.

    Segregated.

    Proms.

    north Korea is such a non issue it isn't even worth mentioning.

    Hawaii has a larger army than all of North Korea combined.

    Actually, I believe my CITY has a larger and more well funded National Guard.

    Any war with NK would last an hour.

    Segregation, however, will last 150 more years.

    Because the GOP still exists.

    Keep up the great work, Obama!

    Do you reckon that one of the reasons he appoints a Cabinet and has all of those "Secretaries" of Various Departments (ie DOD, State, Joint Chiefs....etc. etc.) is just maybe to keep him advised of matters that fall under their cognizance so that he can "multitask"?

    AND

    Don't you think that maybe (since he IS on the Left Coast) that he is possibly sending a message to that little pi$$ ant in Korea concerning how much we really believe his crap about nuking the West Coast while MAYBE putting some unfounded fears to rest for the people that live there?

    It may come as a surprise to you, but the President may just have a larger agenda then he presented to YOU (and fox news....)

    President Obama doesn't have to do a thing to weaken the Republican Party, you guys are doing a bang-up job of that all by yourselves with your racist, homophobic, xenophobic, anti-women, anti-choice, pro-gun, throwback to "Leave it to Beaver" platform. Secondly, he and Vice President Biden did in fact choose to give up 5% of their salaries each in order to strive for a more balanced budget! So tell me now what's so "socialist" about that while we college educated liberals enjoy a good laugh over the fact that you apparently have no earthly idea as to what "socialism" means.

    Thanks for playing!

    The nation isn't "on the verge of war". Where do you get this stuff?

    And, even if it were, raising money to help kick the Republicans out of the House in 2014 is more important.

    Do you have an objection to fundraising? If so, I'm sure you'll agree that no one in Congress, at the very least, should be doing it either.
