President Barack Obama and the DNC plan to return $71,600 donated by disgraced former MF Global head Jon Corzine and his wife, a source confirmed to POLITICO.

The money was split between the DNC Victory Fund and the reelection effort.

But Corzine was not just a donor but also a bundler, including from other MF Global employees.

The source said the other donations from employees will be looked at case by case and, if the facts warrant it, returned.

The news came late on the Friday before Christmas, generall

What happened to the $1,200,000,000,000 ($1.2 trillion) that Corzine stole from MF Gobal investors, Barry? This $71,600 isn't even a blip on the radar screen. Bernie Madoff is a piker compared to Jon Corzine.

Anyone have a handle on what Obama has cost the American taxpayer since his first day in office? . . . Broken down, . . government expenses, czars, deficit, price of gas, almost unmeasurable amount of job loss, pain and suffering, expenses of Obama himself, Michelle, travel, etc. . .

Then let's compare it to Bush. . Let's see, for starters his Christmas vacation = $4,135,038, then . . . would be a major research project but might come in handy prior to November 6, 2012.

Merry Christmas everyone and let's hope we have a Happy New Year!

So Obama is now going after the P L A money like the Clintons when they sold military and business secrets for donations and hush money.
