Obama Bundler and $40K Donor Jodie Evans: Ahmadinejad "Really About Peace and Human Rights"

[kristinn]

Jodie Evans, a bundler and personal donor of over forty thousand dollars to the presidential campaign of Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois told Fox News today that Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is "really about peace and human rights and respecting justice."

Evans met with the leader of the terrorist nation last night in New York City at a meeting of Marxist anti-American groups who have been campaigning to stop Western interference in Iran's alleged nuclear weapons development program.

Ahmadinejad has spoken repeatedly of wiping Israel off the map and his government has trained and funded terrorist who wage war in Iraq on Americans and free Iraqis.

In the interview with Fox, Evans downplayed her role in the Obama campaign as stemming from her husband, Beverly Hills billionaire Max Palevsky, who she says knows Obama from Chicago.

Evans is listed on the official Obama website as a bundler of between $50,000 and $100,000. She has been listed there since Obama published his list of bundlers.

FEC records and other public sources show that Evans has contributed $40,550 to Obama for America and the Obama Victory Fund. $38,250 of that amount has been given by Evans within the past three months. $4600 of the $40k was given to the primary and general election funds of Obama for America, with the balance given to the joint Obama-DNC fund, the Obama Victory Fund.

Evans has been a key part of Obama's campaign from its beginning, having co-hosted Obama's breakout Hollywood fundraiser in February 2007.

Obama has ignored calls by military families and troop support organizations to disavow Evans over her pro-terrorist politics which include her giving aid and comfort to the terrorists in Iraq and working with state sponsors of terrorism to undermine the United States in the war on terror.

Evans told Fox that she knows Obama and speaks with him at 'public events' which are actually exclusive high dollar fundraisers:

“Every time I see Obama I give him a hard time on his stance on the war,” she said. “There’s no such thing as a good war. I wouldn’t say I’m a supporter. I’m definitely a thorn in his side keeping him on the right path about war.”

Evans has publicly endorsed Obama on her MyBarackObama webpage and in a letter signed by leftist New York feminists in February 2008 and in a letter published by The Nation magazine in July 2008.

Note: I will be posting a primer on Jodie Evans and Obama later this evening which will be heavily supported by refrence links to original sources.

Really, Jodie?

I dare you to go live in Iran the way you live know. Get back to me in one year and we'll discuss 'peace and human rights.'

Idiot...

[kromike]

"know" = "now".

Some folks just want to be stupid. They wake up in the morning needing to be stupid and will not accept anything other then to go to bed at night just as stupid. Sad, but true. ;-(

The Jews need to be told that principle operatives in Obama’s campaign believe that Amadinejad is all about “peace and justice”.

The same Amadinejad that has promised to wipe Israel off he face of the map and hosted a Holocaust Denier’s forum each of the last few years.

THAT Amadinejad.

Maybe it’s just me, but I should think the Jews have a lot more to fear from people who think Amadinejad is all about “peace and justice” than from people who hunt caribou and moose to put meat on the table.

Jodie Evans has won today’s STUCK ON STUPID and IDIOT ALERT awards.

[sunmars]

Obama takes money and hangs out with traitors, terrorist sympatisers and people who think our troops should be done harm.

Her ass needs to bwe in jail.

Oh, and I forgot to add the Amadinejad has promised that he will bring a REAL Holocaust to the Jews.

Jodie and her partner in peace, Suzy Benjamin, are two of the most vile human beings ever to waste oxygen on this planet. Here is a little bit re their association with the terrorists who were so busy killing American troops at the time of their relief efforts.

Let’s send the Code Pink founders to Iran for a year and see if we get all of them back.

From CBS-News:
July 29, 2006
"Chavez pledged that his country would 'stay by Iran at any time and under any condition,' state television reported. Ahmadinejad said he saw in Chavez a kindred spirit." "'We do not have any limitation in cooperation,' Ahmadinejad was quoted as saying. 'Iran and Venezuela are next to each other and supporters of each other. Chavez is a source of a progressive and revolutionary current in South America and his stance in restricting imperialism is tangible.'":

"....Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is "really about peace and human rights and respecting justice."

And Jeffrey Dahmer was a nutritional counselor.

It was Jodie Evans (in pink)

and her partner-in-crime at Code Pink, Medea Benjamin, who tried to disrupt Governor Palin's speech at the GOP Convention.
