Obama is coming to Oyster River High School in Durham, NH at 12:00 PM. Will he be discounted “50% off” like he is in Georgia on Tuesday?

UPDATE and bumped:  turns out that the Obama Durham is free to attendees.  But like everything else in life, there IS no free lunch.  Union Leader:

DURHAM — Leave has been cancelled for all Durham police officers for Monday as the town prepares for a visit from President Barack Obama.

Town officials say, like any community, they open their arms to a visit from the President, but they are concerned about who will pay for the additional town personnel needed to handle his campaign stop at Oyster River High School.

A Presidential visit typically costs the town of Durham between $16,000 and $20,000, Selig said, as it requires road closures, accommodating a large motorcade, significant preparations and a significant police presence.

So, will the Obamessiah take the tithe out of his own plate, or consider it a donation from the Liberal Church of Durham?  What say you, Campaign Staff?

Just got word that Obama will be here in NH on Monday at the High School.  Rumor has it (on good authority) that some folks will be there to greet him (like back in August of 2009) for a fund raiser.

He may have a problem if the situation for Monday for ticket sales is like that in Georgia (for a similar type of event).  From Peach (as in Georgia Peach) Pundit:

Today’s Daily Deal: See President Obama for 50% Off

The President will be in Georgia next Tuesday afternoon to pick up some campaign cash and then leave this state of people who cling to God, guns and religion until another stop at the ATM of Georgia Democrats is due.  But the ATM may be running out of cash.

The Georgia Democratic Party sent out a reminder (again) today, noting that “space is limited”.  It’s not so limited that a new category couldn’t be created, now dropping the price of admission from a minimum of $500 to $250.  You’ll need to be a Gen44 “Young Professional” to qualify for this amazingly low price.  But again, please hurry.  Space. Is. Limited.

In 2008, Obama sold out entire outdoor stadiums?  Now he’s being discounted like a pair of sneakers (“buy one, get one free!”) to put butts in seats?  I also note, dryly, that Obama’s campaign is practicing age-ism: he is willingly discriminating against old people.  Love the meme: Obama thinks all old people are richer than young people.

Well, given his economic policies, and the unemployment among the young, they may well be.  So, Obama makes it impossible for them to get jobs – and still won’t let them in for free?  Cold-hearted, that – denying them a nose-bleed seat to gaze upon his Obamamessiah-ship….

So, NH Democrat Party, following us on Twitter, what say you about a discounted Obama? Or rather, that he has discounted himself?
