Pay For Play--Barack Obama Invesco Field Tickets Require Volunteer Time

Required volunteerism.

You read that right. At least 6! hours to be exact.

Drunkablog was all over this story when it broke yesterday, and links to audio of the phone message (first released by Westword) provided by one Obama ticket-seeker who was contacted by the campaign about volunteering in order to receive the tickets.

Michelle Malkin quips "Obama's mandatory volunteerism starts NOW!", Ed Morrissey at Hot Air notes that with Obama, "nothing is free" (emphasis in original), and Townhall says that this is a preview of "Public Service," Obama Style.
