Sounds more like extraordinary punishment to me.

Next Tuesday is President Obama’s last State of the Union before the election. It marks an important moment — the President will lay out his agenda to move our country forward and continue the fight for the middle class.
That’s why we’re offering you and a guest an extraordinary opportunity to come to Washington on the day of the State of the Union — next Tuesday — to personally meet with me.
As part of this experience, you will be able to join us for a special event that will include some of our top Democratic candidates who will help us win the Majority in 2012.
In addition to meeting Democratic Members of Congress and our top candidates from across the country, you and your guest will receive a 2012 campaign briefing at Democratic National Headquarters from my top strategists.
Grassroots Democrats are a critical part of our strategy to win the House Majority. We want you to be a part of this special gathering before President Obama’s State of the Union.

We look forward to meeting you and your guest!
