White House spokesman Josh Earnest said, “This brings to light the importance of disclosure. The only reason someone like Geller was able to find this out was because of the FEC’s disclosure of donations, something the Chamber of Commerce refuses to do.” Hey Josh, the Chamber is private; the FEC is government.
Go see my follow-up piece featured at Big Government on the White House response to Obama’s foreign campaign contributions. Huge thanks to the indispensible help of Atlas readers Laura and Cathy, great Americans.
Obama’s Campaign Contribution Records Scrubbed Clean by Pamela Geller
Story continues below advertisementI appeared on David Asman’s show on Fox Tuesday evening to discuss the hypocrisy of the Obama gang’s new fallacious attack on the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, projecting Democrat crimes on unsuspecting decent organizations. The whole episode showed up the incredible hypocrisy of Obama and the Democrats, and their callous indifference to the will of the people.
Obama and the Democrats claim that the Chamber of Commerce has been funding Republican candidates using foreign money. But as I show in great detail in my book The Post-American Presidency: The Obama Administration’s War On America (Simon & Schuster), in 2008 Obama’s FEC records were full of donations from people with obviously fake names, and other questionable material. (In contrast, McCain’s were squeaky clean.)
The Obama campaign website even featured a drop-down box enabling donors to specify from what country they were donating. All the donor had to do was check a box certifying that he was legally eligible to make a donation. There was no safeguard in place to make sure that foreign nationals did not donate from these countries, in flagrant defiance of the federal law forbidding candidates from receiving foreign donations.
Obama’s campaign received donations from the world over: the Virgin Islands, Vienna, The Hague, Madrid, London, Geneva, Tokyo, Bangkok, Turin, Paris, Munich, Madrid, Roma, Zurich, Moscow, Milan, Singapore, Beijing, Switzerland, Toronto, Vancouver, Dublin, Panama, Berlin, Geneva, Buenos Aires, Prague, Nagoya, Budapest, Barcelona, Sweden, Taipei, Hong Kong, Rio de Janeiro, Sydney, Zurich, Ragusa, Amsterdam, Hamburg, Uganda, Mumbai, Tunis, Zacatecas, St. Croix, Mississauga, Lima, Copenhagen, Dubai, Jeddah, Kabul, Cairo, and many others.

“Someone like Geller?” What an odd thing to say, Mr. Earnest. You mean, a citizen? Taxpayer? American? Something else, perhaps?

The problem is that the Justice Department is never going to investigate or prosecute. They’re in the bag with Obama. Now what?

Oh my G-d! You mean Evangelicals all over the world sent money to Obama’s campaign to discredit him and used fake names? G-d Almighty they be smart! We needed you before the election to point this out. How come we’re only now finding this out?

pamela:
the most astoundng bit of illegality in political fundraising, ever, and the story broken by you.
and, ignored in the mainstream media.
what, the white house thought you had forgotten your painstaking expose of obama’s illegal fund raising, when they brought these charges against the chamber of commerce and the republicans?
it is good of you bite them on the ass again, and, the protestations merely expose them again for the crooks and thugs that they are. and, no, eric holder and the dept. of “justice,” nor the f.e.c. will ever do anything about this. and, if obama denies his fundraising, you have it pretty well documented.

p.s. the biggest story you ever broke, i think, and the most ignored. as one reader commented, nice of the obama whitehouse to bring it up, and give it legs again. maybe now the media will do as it is supposed to do, and investigate one of its own, if it has the balls to do so.

Why bother? The fact that they give CJ an article at all just shows how whacked they are with what they consider responsible journalism.

Next step in the constant war against the kuffar – car jihad! Beware the pislamic Road Warriors, soon coming to a neighbourhood near you!
SANAA, Yemen, Oct. 13 (UPI) — An article in al-Qaida’s online English magazine calls on Muslims in the West to arm vehicles with spiked battering rams and then target crowded areas.
The article, called “The Ultimate Mowing Machine,” shows an illustration of a civilian four-by-four truck and suggests turning the vehicle into a spike battering ram, Middle East Online said Wednesday.
“If you have access to firearms, carry them with you so that you may use them to finish off your work if your vehicle gets grounded during the attack,” the article says, warning operatives to be prepared to die for the cause.

The funding though may not be illegal. A citizen anywhere can donate…the country tab won’t be of help to prove it. It is all in the credit card numbers which differ per country.

I’m like Geller. Maybe he meant me.

McCain has been owned by Soros also since 2000. Even still, didn’t President Obama outspent McCain by 4 to 1, the greatest difference ever in history?

It sounds like obstruction of justice and tampering with state’s evidence to me. We all know what the DOJ is going to do with Holder at the helm (protect Obama and dispense as much racial injustice as they can get away with) anyway. If Obama was clean, there of course would have been no reason for him to permit the scrubbing of his records and he would not be hiding behind Holder’s apronstrings, like a cowardly ten year old.

What do you think was the reason for him to bow to the Saudi monster? wasn’t it obvious?
