Welcome to IWETHEY!

New what does palestinins and the gulf states contributing to
obama's coffers have to do with endorsements? I find it odd that we sent money to Abbas and they use it to fund Obama's campaign. A little transparency in their online operation might make people feel a little better about him.
thanx,
bill
if lemmy and god had a wrestling match who would win?
New It's all reported to the FEC.
All of the candidates donations are reported to the FEC (and they can't accept donations > $200 unless they know the name, occupation, and employer).

Knock yourself out. :-)

Cheers,
Scott.
New yeah right, there is no gambling in casablanca either

Other overseas contributors are making multiple small donations ostensibly in their own names over a period of a few days, some under maximum donation allowances, but others aggregating in excess of the maximums when all added up. So while some of the contributions appear legal, others appear clearly over the maximums allowed without greater reporting requirement. Some of the contributions may bel egal as reported, but "fishy" can only describe the Obama campaign reporting with regard to aggregate contributions. The countries and major cities from which contributions have been received France, Virgin Islands, Planegg, Vienna, Hague, Madrid, London, AE, IR, Geneva,Tokyo, Bangkok, Turin, Paris, Munich, Madrid, Roma, Zurich, Netherlands, Moscow, Ireland, Milan, Singapore, Bejing, Switzerland, Toronto, Vancouver, La Creche, Pak Chong, Dublin, Panama, Krabi, Berlin, Geneva, Buenos Aires, Prague, Nagoya, Budapest, Barcelona, Sweden, Taipei, Hong Kong, Rio de Janeiro, Sydney, Zurich, Ragusa, Amsterdam, Hamburg, Uganda, Mumbia, Nagoya, Tunis, Zacatecas, St, Croix, Mississiauga, Laval, Nadi, Behchoko, Ragusa, DUBIA, Lima, Copenhagen, Quaama, Jeddah, Kabul, Cairo, Nassau(not the county on Long Island,lol), Luxembourg (Auchi's stomping grounds), etc,etc,etc, but nare ot limited to these countries, as we've have just begun to read through almost 500 pages.

There are way too many overseas contributions and I find it hard to believe they are all American citizens. How does the FEC monitor that? Some of contributions appear to be "bundled" from one person as source to hide the contributions of many, and an example of one among many such "incidents" will clearly show why I arrive at such a conclusion..

A red flag is a donor like Jeanne McCurdy. Look at the contribution excerpt below. It's a compilation of a mere four pages of listings, pages 40-44, approximately 9% of the pages of the total document I received, and it lists contributions made by a Jeanne McCurdy, who is always listed as unemployed, and who does not have an address at least as can be found in the files provided (and, as you might well expect, no phone number or email address either).

John did a computation of her contributions from roughly Aug. 07 through Feb/Mar of 08, and it is over $1200. She ranges from a $15 to a $400 contribution, most running $25/35 to $50. Several of her separate contributions are listed on the same day, a very curious way to make campaign contributions, which are usually in response to mailed solicitations. (She should accumulate them, save on postage.)

This is a scam. It appears to us he is fronting the contributions to hide the contributors. Now, why in the hell would he do that? He doesn't want people to know who his contributors are? What an odd approach for a politician. Now, this woman, Jeanne Mccurdy (is she is a woman, a real or ficticious person?) appears to be mining a population of people who do not wish their identities known.....

New Um, where did AtlasShrugged2000 get their data?
They got it from the FEC which got it from Obama's filings.

What evidence do they have that "There are way too many overseas contributions"? As of the end of September, Obama had 1,430,415 donations reported.

=== begin cut ===

There are an estimated 6.5 million Americans abroad, and about 990,000 of them requested ballots for the 2006 election, according to the U.S. Election Assistance Commission.

Of that 990,000, 119,000 were military voters. That’s about 10 percent of the total overseas military population.

Out of the 119,000 ballots that troops requested, fewer than half — about 57,000 — were counted. That leaves about 62,000 ballots unaccounted for, equivalent to ballots going missing for everyone in Flagstaff, Ariz.

=== end cut ===

Jeanne McCurdy seems to be a legit donor:

http://fundrace.huffingtonpost.com/neighbors.php?type=name&lname=Mccurdy&fname=Jeanne

$4620 in the cycle. $4600 is the legal limit ($2300 in primary, $2300 in the general), and it's certainly possible that there are two people with the same name.

IOW, there's no "there" there, IMO. It's all innuendo.

If they want to get upset, they should sort the list by Amount:

http://www.fec.gov/DisclosureSearch/MapAppRefreshTran.do?cand_nm_title=Obama%2C+Barack&tranType=INDIVIDUAL&tranComeFrom=mapApp&d-16544-p=1&d-16544-n=1&d-16544-s=CONTB_RECEIPT_AMT&cand_id=P80003338&d-16544-o=2

Whoops. "Mr. Chris Rock" gave Obama $9200 before "REATTRIBUTION/REDESIGNATION REQUESTED". If anyone can find someone who has given more than $4600 who doesn't have a notation, then they can claim that something's fishy. Otherwise, they're trying to find a conspiracy where none exists.

Cheers,
Scott.
New so why did obama take 33k from gaza?
oh yea they thought that mustapha and gemiel were from georgia and didnt return the money until their nose was rubbed in it

New Newsweek covered that.

There's a difference between a donation and buying T-shirts, so it's not surprising that it took a little while to get straightened out, is it?

Your buddy Bob has had some run-ins with the FEC, too, you know.

If you're going to go after Barack, you should find a better cause, IMHO. ;-)

Cheers,
