President Obama to appear at $17,600-a-plate dinner in Los Angeles
President Obama will be in Los Angeles on Monday for a pair of fundraisers for the Democratic National Committee and the reelection campaign of Sen. Barbara Boxer.
Air Force One is scheduled to touch down at LAX on Monday afternoon, and a presidential chopper will ferry Obama to Exposition Park for a reception followed by a dinner at the Natural History Museum.
Andrew Malcolm over at our sister blog, Top of the Ticket, says the cost per plate is $17,600.

EDITOR'S PICKS:
And the Rich get richer and the Poor and Middle Class get poorer. It's the Obama way, get use to it.
Let us all bow our heads and pray that Boxer is not re-elected. She's 70 now, how good could her brain be?

Boxer (call me senator) is the epitome of everything wrong with our federal government. Her arrogance and disdain for the people of this country is appalling. Hopefully Obama's visit will be the kiss of death for her campaign and political career.
