Today in my inbox I see this, trolling for more people to attempt to win a contest to meet with President Obama.
It got my curiosity piqued. Who is this Cathi Duchon and surely where are these pictures of her meeting with President Obama?
Turns out Cathi has a Twitter account. Surprisingly progressive and filled with Planned Parenthood retweets I knew I had the right lady’s account.
So among all of her Twitter pictures surely Cathi has one of her and President Obama right? …Right?
…oh?
Friend —
If you think you’re never going to win a chance to go backstage to meet President Obama, I need to tell you something:
That’s what I thought, too.
When I got the phone call to tell me my name had been selected, I was floored. It wasn’t long before my husband and I were getting on a free flight to D.C. to meet the President face to face.
I’m here to tell you — if you’re still on the fence, you should go for it right now.
Anyone who adds their name to help with the final push on health care enrollment is automatically eligible to win. Chances are, you were probably planning to help out anyway. This is a pretty amazing bonus.
When you get home, all your friends will want to know: What is it like to meet President Obama?
Here’s the truth — it felt like meeting an old friend.
The President is so warm and genuine — he wanted to know all about me and my husband. Talking with him completely reaffirmed my commitment to keep fighting for what is important. And the photo of the three of us is one of my favorite things to show off.
If I could go again, I’d do it in a heartbeat — heck, I’m going to throw my name in too, just in case.
Add your name to help spread the word on health care enrollment, and you’ll be automatically entered to meet President Obama himself:

Thanks — I’ll be pulling for you!
Cathi
So back to Cathi’s “facia-a-facia” with President Obama. That totally happened right? Well, not really.
You see, Cathi DID see President Obama that night. She was even in the same room as him. However that’s where the facia-a-facia ends.
It seems her and her husband were two of a delegation of a hundred that got to occupy the same air/space as President Obama but not physically meet with him.
Otherwise, why doesn’t Cathi have any pics of her and President Obama together w/ her husband?
Thanks Cathi, you’re a sucker but I’m not…
