		<description>I think it is pretty fantastic and yes, I think you are overreacting, yet I guess it doesn&#039;t hurt to know this and write about it as you have.  But if it comes related to and can be traced back to Obama&#039;s website, the Obama campaign, it&#039;s okay.  The bottom line is donors backing Obama know who they are and if they get some kind of related email and want to continue donating regardless, they will, like me.</description>

		<description>I got an email too from a first time donor who wrote, &quot;I want to see a change in politics. Barack&#039;s refusal to accept money from Washington lobbyist bigwigs appeals to me. It shows that he wants to make decisions with ordinary people in mind.&quot;

It inspired me to contribute because it reminded me of a recent Obama conference call Houseparty, where we hand wrote messages on postcards (provided in the hosting packet) to undecided voters telling them why we support Obama, and asking for their support. 

So in case you are wondering if the donors are real: 
Yes they&#039;re real. . . and they&#039;re spectacular!</description>

		<description>This is a standard spammer tactic: faking a personal message. The kids at BSD are to be commended once again for their keen insights, and also dinged once again for sitting on a throne of lies.</description>
