That is the real question. and; also how many more so called large credit card charges are there over the contribution limit that we do not know about because no one has investigated Obama or said a word?
I think it’s possible that this donation was meant to be 1750.00, which would have been substantial but would not have triggered any alarms. I would suspect it was made on-line somehow, because it’s easy to leave off that decimal point in an on-line form (or perhaps the foreigners who were sending it didn’t know how to write US currency very well).
There’s no way the campaign could have missed a $175,000 donation or pretended to miss it, but $1750 is within the legal limits and would not have triggered anything.
If you haven't done so, go read the report at Atlas Shrugs. They were able to make CC donations using names such as "Osama Bin Laden", "Saddam Hussein" and "Bill Ayers". And, again, this was all done using the same card!
WTF...?!?
Don’t you just love the subtle bias. John McCain was “forced” to give back donations, makes it sounds like he did it unwillingly, with somebody having to twist his arm in order for him to play fair.
Perhaps. I do know that giving McCain a mere 50 bucks was like signing a legal contract.
The FEC will look into this next year.
Maybe ACORN is now doing fund-raising with their “special methods?”
This serious question has been out there and obvious for quite awhile, yet all we hear from the Lamestream Press (or ANY press) ...is crickets.
How come we haven't heard this????
I would bet my bottom dollar this is huge but the media will never expose it. The amount of money obambi is raising is insane. A huge amount of it has to be fraud and illegal donations.
