The Hooker Maneuver

It's gotten tougher for the administration to bribe House members into voting for Obamacare against the will of the American people. Even the mainstream media has picked up on President Obama's Federal Judgeships for Brothers Program and it would be nearly impossible to slip another Cornhusker Kickback or Louisiana Purchase past the voters. So what’s next? Like many desperate people before him, Mr. Obama is resorting to prostitution.

In a last ditch effort to convince wavering members of his own party to vote for his hugely unpopular and obscenely expensive version of health care reform, the president is ready to offer election-year visits to competitive congressional districts where a presidential appearance can bring in hundreds of thousands of dollars in campaign funds.

At least the administration is self-aware enough to not offer the president up with the promise of earning more votes. A quick call to Creigh Deeds, Jon Corzine or Martha Coakley, three Democrats Mr. Obama helped lose to Republican challengers in Virginia, New Jersey and Massachusetts respectively, would convince any candidate that they're better off without him on the campaign trail.
But maybe the president's attendance at a candidate's fundraiser will raise lots of cash from the still-duped believers in hope and change. Maybe this offer to rent himself out for a few hours in exchange for a yes vote on Obamacare is a good deal for both the president and the elected representative/candidate. But it's a disgusting deal for the American people.
