For Immediate Release Contact: Judith Ingram Julia Queen Christian Hilland FEC TAKES FINAL ACTION ON SIX CASES WASHINGTON The Federal Election Commission recently made public its final action on six matters under review (MURs). In one matter, respondents agreed to pay a civil penalty of $5,500; the Commission found no reason to believe a violation of the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971, as amended (the Act), occurred in connection with another allegation and it dismissed the remaining allegations. In another case, respondents agreed to pay a civil penalty of $3,600. The Commission exercised its prosecutorial discretion and dismissed the other four matters. Under the law, the FEC must attempt to resolve its enforcement cases, or MURs, through a confidential investigative process that may lead to a negotiated conciliation agreement between the Commission and the individual or group.Additional information regarding MURs can be found on the FEC web site at http://www.fec.gov/em/mur.shtml.

Pamela Geller Featured Article, Big Government: Obamas Campaign Contribution Records Scrubbed Clean
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 FECs 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. Obamas Campaign Contribution Records Scrubbed Clean by Pamela Geller I appeared on David Asmans show on Fox Tuesday evening to discuss the hypocrisy of the Obama gangs 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 Administrations War On America (Simon & Schuster), in 2008 Obamas FEC records were full of donations from people with obviously fake names, and other questionable material. (In contrast, McCains 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.

Clyde sent this gem, "Amazing. The hits keep on coming. Yet ANOTHER corrupt "bundler" of donations to Obama and Hillary has been arrested, for enormous bank fraud. Are ANY Democrats honest? I'm not sure. Especially those with money". SCROLL THIS (from the bottom): Obama's Contributions: Foreign and Domestic HSBC sues accused Democratic fund-raiser in New York Reuters NEW YORK, Sept 18 (Reuters) - A fund-raiser for Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and other Democrats who was charged last month with defrauding Citigroup Inc (C.N) is being sued by HSBC (HSBA.L) for deceiving it into lending him $100 million. The lawsuit filed in New York State Supreme Court in early September accused private equity firm head Hassan Nemazee, 59, of engaging in an elaborate scheme to make HSBC Bank USA believe that its loan was secured by collateral in the form of U.S. Treasury Notes when it was not. Nemazee, who sits on the board of the Iranian American Political Action Committee, typically donates more than $100,000 annually to Democratic political candidates. He is listed as one of the top "bundlers" of contributions to Obama's 2008 presidential campaign, according to OpenSecrets,org, a website run by the Center for Responsive Politics research group. Nemazee was charged on Aug. 25 of one count of bank fraud for seeking a $74 million loan from Citigroup's banking unit under false pretenses. He was arrested at Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey on Aug. 23 as he was checking in for a flight to Italy, according to court papers. U.S. prosecutors accused him on Sept. 2 of defrauding other banks. In a letter to a magistrate judge in Manhattan federal court, prosecutors said he repaid the Citibank loan by defrauding another bank, but did not identify it. The bank was HSBC, according to the civil lawsuit. The bank sued Nemazee for breach of contract and fraud. Nemazee's lawyers could not immediately be reached for comment. The HSBC lawsuit, dated Sept. 2, said that "to accomplish the fraud, Nemazee represented to HSBC that he had $89 million in Treasury Notes, with a current market value of more than $125 million, in a specified brokerage firm account; submitted a supposed agreement from the brokerage firm with forged signatures, false addresses, and false telephone numbers; used a mail drop; and submitted fabricated brokerage statements."

OBAMA AND BLAGO .... and the SEIU


Obama and Blago go way back, and have been cavorting together a long time. Blago knew who to use to get to Obama. ATLAS EXCLUSIVE: Obama paid out at least $2,250,000 to the SEIU, the Service Employees International Union - the nation's largest labor union and the latest 'criminalized' org to be exposed in the this Democrat scandal of enormous proportion. And SEIU COPE-PAC spent $13,355,389.00 on behalf of Barack Hussein. SEIU 880 endorsed Obama for Presidency. Obama, Blagojevich, ACORN, Rathke, Gamaliel (Obama was a former GAMALIEL organizer). In this latest bombshell in the Obama/Blago corruption scandal ... The complaint alleges that Blagojevich tried to use an intermediary[SEIU] to bargain with Sen. Obama; it describes a meeting on November 12 with a highranking official at the Service Employees International Union, where Blagojevich suggested that he'd accept a position at an organization designed to help the Senate candidate. Source: SEIU official was Stern A Democratic source confirms that SEIU President Andy Stern is the SEIU official referred to in the federal complaint against Rod Blagojevich. Blagojevich seems to have mainly wanted money, because his family was having financial problems, and possibly to have a political future of some sort. However Blagojevich seems to have kept changing his mind about specifically what he wanted from SEIU. At one point he wanted a 501(c)(4) organization set up with 10 to 15 million bucks in it. The organization would help the new Senator, but it looks like it would be run by Blagojevich. The unnamed union official agreed to "send up a flare". At a different point Blagejovich wanted to be put in charge of Change to Win, which is affiliated with SEIU. It sounds like the SEIU official objected on the basis that other folks were doing the work already, but Harris (Blagojevich's chief of staff) seemed to think that a three way quid pro quo could be worked out in which Obama gave something to SEIU and SEIU gave Blagojevich the job. No indication if SEIU was good with this. Then Blagojevich got the bright idea that perhaps SEIU could give his wife a job. (Isn't it funny how coolly the left wing rabid blogs report news like this, sans party affiliation, of course -- lol.) The above excerpt is from the same blog that photoshopped Senator Lieberman in minstrel black face. Interestingly enough, Obama paid at least $2,250,000 to the SEIU over the last few months of his election campaign. Coincidence? This is fishy; this plain stinks. Remember, Mistuh "Change", Mistuh "Hope" refused pleas to push reform in Illinois. He [Obama] would not use his influence to safeguard landmark state legislation barring big government contractors from making campaign contributions. Designed as a response to the "pay-to-play politics" that have flourished under Gov. Blagojevich, the plan would have barred firms with more than $50,000 in state contracts from donating to the officeholder in charge of the deals. (more on that here) The transcript of Patrick Fitzgerald's press conference is available here. CLICK BELOW FOR AN ITEMIZED SPREADSHEET OF OBAMA'S PAYOUTS TO SEIU. UPDATE: SEIU COPE-PAC $13,355,389.00 has been spent on behalf of Barack Obama through August 21, 2008. ($1,600,415.00 has been spent against John McCain through July 31, 2008). Click below for breakdown. Source here. SEIU and Obama on Obamas own website; SEIUs members are temperamentally suited to Obama; he is a longtime friend of Chicagos SEIU Local 880 and worked closely with the union as an organizer and later as a state legislator. SEIU paid for door-to-door canvassing for Obama, voter identification and registration, phonebanksan expenditures document.

Atlas Shrugs: Obama's Contributions: Foreign and Domestic


Presented by the Federal Election Commission, numerous donations to the Obama campaign by SEIU in 2008. SEIU involved with Get Out the Vote in Indiana. Obamas 2004 campaign, contributions by SEIU. Service Employees International Union Independent Expenditures SEIU, specifically SEIU Local 880/Chicago, contributed money directly to Obamas campaign. SEIU and ACORN and Wade Rathke.

Page 4 of 46

To an observer from outside Louisiana, its sometimes difficult to tell where SEIU ends and ACORN begins. The union and the community organization seem to merge. The relationship is easier to understand when one learns that Wade Rathke, who founded the New Orleans ACORN chapter 30 years ago, is also the chief organizer of SEIU local 100. The two are fraternal, not identical, twins.40 (here) WADE RATHKE: ACORNS FOUNDER, AYERS COMPATRIOT No Quarter Rathke is the founder of the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) and Service Employees International Union (SEIU) Local 100. He was ACORN's chief organizer from its founding in 1970 until he stepped down June 2, 2008.[1] Rathke and his wife, Beth Butler, live in New Orleans, Louisiana. ( all the cockroaches are at this party) (from Rotten ACORN) When employees of Rathkes SEIU Local 100 wanted to organize themselves into a union, Rathke relied on his wife and brother to plot out an aggressive (and hypocritical) union-avoidance strategy. One former employee reported that after employees provided Rathke with a petition demanding union recognition: Rathke quickly called a meeting of ACORNs inner circle, which included his wife, Beth Butler, head organizer of Louisiana ACORN, and Rathkes brother Dale, who is the financial guru of the outfit. The troika devised a variety of tactics, such as can be expected from any union-busting corporation, to divide and destroy our solidarity. Department of Labor financial disclosures show at least $623,829 in transactions between ACORNs SEIU locals 100 and 880 and other Rathke/ACORN-run operations.

THUG-IN-CHIEF OBAMA ABOVE THE LAW:WILL ESCAPE MASSIVE CAMPAIGN FRAUD AND MONEY LAUNDERING
Smacks of Putinism. You mean to tell me the millions of dollars in illegal donations, credit card fraud, foreign and Arab money that I documented along with other great Americans will escape prosecution? Obama recklessly broke campaign finance law and he escapes prosecution? I am asking all Americans, do you give a rat's ass about this country and rule of law? SCROLL THIS: Obama's Contributions: Foreign and Domestic OBAMA LIKELY TO ESCAPE CAMPAIGN DONOR AUDIT Politico (hat tip Cathy) The Federal Election Commission is unlikely to conduct a potentially embarrassing audit of how Barack Obama raised and spent his presidential campaigns record-shattering windfall, despite allegations of questionable donations and accounting that had the McCain campaign crying foul. Adding insult to injury for Republicans: The FEC is obligated to complete a rigorous audit of McCains campaign coffers, which will take months, if not years, and cost McCain millions of dollars to defend. THE GOONS ARE IN CHARGE! Even if Obamas campaign reached the audit recommendation trigger point, itd be tough to muster the majority commission vote necessary to initiate the audit. Thats because the FEC is comprised of three Democratic commissioners and three Republicans and, as such, is prone to deadlock on partisan issues.

THE BEST ANALYSIS OF CAMPAIGN FRAUD: TOM BLUMER


Tom Blumer of Bizzyblog has written the best piece I have seen on campaign fraud for pajama media. Thank you Tom for giving credit where credit is due, something the chazas could not bring themselves to do. You are an honorable man. The Obama Campaigns Credit-Card Crack-up PJ media The campaign of Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama has been and may still be accepting credit-card and prepaid-card contributions from overseas. It has done so in a way that may very likely prevent it from refunding the contributions to donors, many of whom may have had their credit cards used without their consent. Its virtually impossible that the system for accepting card contributions was inadvertently set up without adequate controls, and almost certain that existing controls were instead deliberately disabled to create untraceability. Finally, it is likely that the total dollar amounts involved run in millions, if not tens of millions, of dollars. In mid-August, Pamela Geller of Atlas Shrugs, writing at American Thinker, summarized a pattern of irregularities she had found. Geller, and readers who assisted her, discovered that: Obamas overseas (foreign) 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 are aggregating in excess of the maximums when all added up. The contributions had come from over 50 specifically named countries and major cities.

Atlas Shrugs: Obama's Contributions: Foreign and Domestic

Page 5 of 46

Obviously bogus contributor names that a 7 year-old would have known to be fictitious, including Hbkjb, jkbkj, Doodad Pro, and Good Will, were frequent. Thousands of Obamas foreign donations ended in cents. U.S. contributors very rarely contribute in anything other than whole dollar amounts, so the reason why contributions would end with anything other than .00 would almost always involve foreign currency translation. In a later post, Geller listed 18 donors who had contributed more than the legal $2,300 limit. Good Will and Doodad Pro were among them, to the tune of over ten grand each. You might think Well thats pretty bad, but really no big deal, because at some point, Obama will just refund the money. In many cases, that does not appear likely. On October 22, Gellers Who Is John Galt? post revealed information that should have set off alarms in newsrooms across America namely, that anyone could pretend to be someone else, with someone elses address, and successfully process a credit-card donation to Obama. Reader Craig reported the following (bold is mine): Please, read it all - go here.

OBAMA CAMPAIGN FRAUD:STILL TAKING FICTITIOUS DONORS, CREDIT CARD FRAUD


Craig, the reader that contributed to Obama as John Galt, Osama Bin Laden, and Bill Ayers provides is with this troubling update. Craig writes me: "Given the bad PR and the additional cost for all their CC transactions; why is the AVS still turned off? This story first broke in the blogs in a big way last Wednesday, and the MSM starting asking the Obama campaign about it by the end of the week. So the Obama campaign surely knows the basic facts of the story and its potential liability; that they dont have even the most basic security measures initiated at their website. Just to cover their butts; dont you think they would have turned those features back on? So they can claim yes, we discovered the issue and have rectified it several days agoblah, blah, blah. So, I tested the system, yet again, this morning with the same credit card this time with Karl Marx as the donor and sure enough, it went thru. But Why? Why would they continue to expose themselves to this potential scandal? My bet is (in spite of their claims that its too difficult to make the info available) they know down to the penny the exact details of all their under $200 donors and the serial-CC-fraudsters and the simply cant afford to give up the money. Also, as reported here , its actually costing them more per transaction to process all their online donations. Even the ones that arent fraudulent. So they know this is a PR issue, and its more expensive on a per transaction basis, yet the AVS remains disabled. I can only conclude; they know this is such a significant percentage of their overall revenue, that it spite of the publicity they have to continue to allow the fraud in order to meet their budget goals. They must know just how many of those small donations are coming from fraudulent sources, and if they turn the security on it could drastically impact those $150-million donation months?" Also, if they did publically announce that they restored the security features and a big drop in the fundraising figures ensued, it would only confirm all the fraud up to that point. Meaning, if the fundraising reports show a big drop in CC transactions after they turned the AVS back on, it would be evidence of the crime. It certainly seems to follow from the facts. If this was really an insignificant portion (WaPo says 1%) of their donations it would be a good PR move to simply turn the security on. But they dont.

OBAMA'S CAMPAIGN BOGUS CAMPAIGN FRAUD RESPONSE


I have reviewed Mccain's donations and they are so clean you could eat off 'em. Over at My Right Word: Lawyers for the Obama operation said yesterday that their "extensive back-end review" has carefully scrubbed contributions to prevent illegal money from entering the operation's war chest. "I'm pretty sure if I took my error rate and matched it against any other campaign or comparable nonprofit, you'd find we're doing very well," said Robert Bauer, a lawyer for the campaign. "I have not seen the McCain compliance staff ascending to heaven on a cloud." When Bauer says they have "carefully scrubbed contributions" (they've scrubbed the web of anti- Obama sites, birth certificate images etc - we we know they are good at it) - what is he saying. Obama has scrubbed the donation files of Obama's Gaza $33,000 contributions from Edwan, Hossam, and Osama - without having returned the jihad dough. What exactly does Bauer mean when he says they've scrubbed the records? These donations just ............... disappeared. Election lawyer Brett Kappel said the FEC has never grappled with the question of cash cards. "The whole system is set up for them to accept the payment, then determine whether it is legal or not. And if it's not, send it back. That's what the statute requires," he said. (Washington Post) Cathy adds, "That is not what the Obama campaign does. The FEC has asked for response on contributions back to 2007 repeatedly and the campaign does NOT resolve them. See below from the FEC August 08 Request for Information. There are 189 pages with approximately 30 donors per page that the FEC is questioning. Over 5,500 donations. The FEC has been questioning some of the donations for well over a year.

I heard Atlas was Cited at FOX this morning on Campaign Finance Fraud
A number of Atlas readers have written that Atlas was cited on FOX News at around 7:00 am this morning -- if anyone can grab the clip ...... I'll be your best friend :) UPDATE: Atlas broke the story with the indispensable help of researcher Cathy, John Jay, Doc, Slim guy, Randall, Laura - the individual doing the heavy lifting. Matthew Mosk of the Washington Post did a whitewash on Obama's fraud, do no investigative work and did not even make a cursory call to yours truly. They contacted Powerline - who did no investigative work. Great reporting work, WaPO! While the potentially fraudulent or excessive contributions represent about 1 percent of Obama's staggering haul, the security challenge is one of several major campaignfinance-related questions raised by the Democrat's fundraising juggernaut. Uh, says who Mosk? Did you pull that out of your .... ear, or just run what you were told to run by the Obama thugs. Same diff.

Apparently, the Fuhrer's correct billing address for his MasterCard should have been not "#1 Reichstag Building", but the Reichskanzlei at Wilhelmstrasse 77.

Atlas Shrugs: Obama's Contributions: Foreign and Domestic


Well, okay. But just so long as he doesn't try voting twice using his vacation pad at Berchtesgaden.

Page 7 of 46

Incidentally, my only claim to expertise in this Obama scam is that, as an online retailer myself (though sadly on a much reduced scale from the Messiah), I know that the "explanations" for the fraud that the campaign is offering are bunk. But I'm also struck by the remarkable lack of curiosity displayed by the Washington Post and New York Times reporters on this story. Their legwork consists of calling the Obama guys, getting a blandly evasive quote, and then pronouncing: "Case closed." By contrast, look at this list of posts over at Atlas Shrugged, all from one website, and then ponder what, say, a Times investigative team might uncover if they looked into it. Which is presumably why they don't.

CAMPAIGN FINANCE FRAUD: OBAMA'S LATEST RUSE, DEFLECT/RUN


I am not sure if you've seen this incredible giant lie that Obama belched today but I will tell you one thing, It is indicative of the utter contempt Obama has for the truth, the American people and the election laws. The campaign fraud perpetrated by Obama is on a scale difficult to fathom (well documented here). He believes he is above the law perhaps as a result of his narcissism. His claim that McCain received excessive donations is laughable. This is how Obama deflects allegations, he just throws them back at McCain knowing full well the media will happily do his dirty work. I wrote of this very thing at American Thinker a couple of months ago. Obama's bots said, Analysis of the information ... shows that the McCain Campaign has received 6,653 contributions each of which was at least $1,000 in excess of the applicable $2,300 limit to the primary campaign, - this is a ruse. The standard procedure is to "redesignate" any excess over the $2,300 from the primary campaign to the general election. Here is one quick look at Obama's donations that are over the limit (the Palestinian donation is in there, never returned despite Obama's fabrication that it was - click to enlarge).

Tens of thousands of Obama donations have been over the limit the campaigns simply "redesignate' the funds to a diffferent campaign, another fund, a move from the primary to the general race, Every page of Obama's - sometimes pages on one donor alone - are rife with "redesignations". Here is a long list of "redesignations" on one donor from Geneva - there are hundreds, thousands of examples like "John Blair" (click to enlarge".

Obama notoriously redesignates bucco bucks to his new Obama Victory Fund, created June 2008. There is a 28,500.00 cap per donor since it is a National Party fund. The Obama Victory Fund disbursed a million and a half dollars to "other party Committees" in July. The Committee for Change, created in mid-July, has become a vehicle for ultra-rich Democratic donors to distinguish themselves from the 3.1 million others who have put $600 million behind Obama's presidential candidacy. "We kept running into donors who had maxed out to Obama Victory who wanted to do additional money and had the capacity to do it and were eager to do it," said Alan Kessler, a Philadelphia lawyer who recently held a fundraiser for the committee. "They asked if there were vehicles and other ways to do it, and we said yes." The committee, which has been routing millions of dollars directly to state party accounts and will help fuel Obama's field operations, represents the flip side of the grass-roots fundraising effort that helped turn Obama into the most successful money-raiser in presidential campaign history.(more here) Obama opted out of public financing despite promises not to do that. BHO became the $600 million man after opting out of the public financing system for presidential candidates, has become Exhibit A for experts concerned that the system is on its last legs. At the least, they say, the massive money Obama has raised ($186 million since Sept. 1 brought his total to more than $600 million) shows why the system is due for a major overhaul. How much of Obama's haul is shady, illegal and foreign is hard to estimate but we have uncovered enormous illegal activity and that's just me and a couple of intrepid Atlas readers. By opting out of the system, Obama has been unfettered by spending limits. By staying in the system, GOP nominee John McCain is limited to the $84.1 million provided by the government. McCain got $7 million in excess donations: DNC The Post (hat tip Jane) WASHINGTON -- John McCain received nearly $7 million in 6,652 donations that exceeded contribution limits while seeking the Republican presidential nomination, the Democratic National Committee said Saturday. This is laughable. They talk down to us. Outrageous. The DNC listed the figure in a complaint it said it will file on Monday with the Federal Election Commission. The Republican National Committee filed a similar complaint on Oct. 5, alleging Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama had not done enough to weed out illegal contributions. In a copy of the DNC posted on the Internet, the DNC said on Saturday it compiled its information by examining donations recorded on McCains campaign Web site.

Page 8 of 46

Analysis of the information ... shows that the McCain Campaign has received 6,653 contributions each of which was at least $1,000 in excess of the applicable $2,300 limit to the primary campaign, the DNC complaint said. Nineteen individuals contributed more then $10,000 each to the McCain Campaign more than four times the limit, said the document. It said the donations included one person who gave $56,047 and overall totaled nearly $7 million. Check out the top screenshot of Obama's donors. "Redesignate" - here are the limits on various campaigns, committees, and special limits. The complaint asked the election commission to investigate the matter. It also accuses the McCain campaign of accepting donations without getting the donors names and addresses. This is a blatant lie. Try it. McCain's campaign is clean. You cannot make fraudulent donations like you can with the Obama campaign. John Galt, Saddam Hussein, Osama Bin Laden, Ben Dover all donated without a problem. Further investigations is showing - real people's name are being used to "front" donations they did not make. A spokesman for the McCain campaign was not immediately available for comment. On its Web site, the New York Times political blog quoted McCain spokesman Brain Rogers as saying the DNC complaint was a publicity stunt to distract attention from Obamas shady fund-raising practices. There is an understatement. Here is a screen shot of the Gazan contributions reattributed and redesignated Download FECLtr7.30.08.zip

UPDATE: Slim guy published a google docs spreadsheet with donation to the Joint Victory Fund that indicates all the donations which have gone over the cap of 28.5k at the end of September: GO HERE Slim guy makes a valid point: "Was it a single whopper of a check [the McCain donation] one time that came in. After all look at that lady that the BHO campaign had somebody use another credit card (not hers) and proxy donate 178K in her name. If a bogus thing comes in Mc just can't ignore it and hope it goes away. Until he can contact the donor he has to report the donation even if they believe it is bogus and they can note that on their submission. The FEC even allows creation of a separate bank account to put questionable donations in till they are cleared do it doesn't commingle with valid donations." Slim Guy in the comment sextion on the joint fund limits: "Really makes you wonder what they are doing if people can in a single donation to the Joint Fund with the DNC send in a donation of over 61k when the limit is 28.5k. Not only does that go over the cap for a donation to a Joint Fund but it may go over in a single donation the limits to all party committee donations for an individual." UPDATE: Pelalusa caught John Batchelor's report on more questionable activity on foreign donations. Go here. UPDATE: Dear Adolphe ...........Willkommen!

CONTRIBUTION FRAUD: John Galt, Saddam Hussein, Osama Bin Laden, Bill Ayers - Obama has Charged Your Credit card
When asked about the possibility that a single person could use fake names to mask many donations sent via a few credit cards, [General Counsel, Robert] Bauer responded that "both campaigns seem to be in a similar position." National Journal here McCain does not accept these donations. We have attempted time and time again. The McCain campaign does accept normal credit card donations because staffers can easily check whether the owner of the credit card shares the same billing address as the listed donor, she said. That address-check process costs the campaign about 12 cents, she said. "We could lower our standards and accept more money... but this is John McCain's campaign, and he wants to root out fraud in fundraising and have everything open and as honest as possible," said Donatelli. National Journal here Craig confirms that the credit card charges for John Galt, Saddam Hussein, Osama Bin Laden, and Bill Ayers have gone through. So much for Obama's rigorous credit card screening.

This from Craig It took a few days to confirm, but as of this morning all four charges have posted to my CC account (see attached). Remember, these were all separate donations made by: John Galt Saddam Hussein Osama Bin Laden Bill Ayers And I have the screenshots to prove it. Also, I made another attempt this morning to make a $10 donation under the name Tony Rezko (See attached.) And it went thru again. So reports that this has been fixed are erroneous. Further, last night on Sheppard Smiths 3pm-ET show this issue was brought up briefly and they cited the Obama campaign falsely claiming that this sort of thing happens at the McCain site and that they catch these errors later in the processing. Well, it took three days to process my donations and they all skated through their rigorous screening.

TONY REZKO!

UPDATED: JOHN GALT AKA CRAIG ADDS THIS (Craig is the reader who conducted this "experiment": A few more points on this: Im in the web development business and its clear to me that Obama has a sophisticated system that could easily flag and reject these donations if they wished to do so. The fact that only one of my donations showed up on my CC statement within the first 24-hrs initially gave me pause that they were screening for fraud (even though I gave a completely fake address that didnt match my card). However, when the other three donations showed up three days later, it only confirmed my worst suspicions. Believe me, a major part of what I do for a living is Web-Analytics where I analyze and digest website traffic statistics on individual websites and sort thru in the most miniscule of detail; new visitors, browser type, sales transactions, email addresses etc. This is WebStuff 101. And even the most basic Web-Analytics and database tools would allow Obama to reject these phony donations before they occur, as the McCain site does. Further, its laughable that the Obama camp claim its too complicated to make their under-$200 donor information available. Again, even the most basic Web-Analytics and database tools would allow the Obama camp to make this info available the way McCain does. This openness, on McCains part, enabled the AP to finally find something worthy of reporting on the issue: The McCain Campaign website also lists 23 anonymous contributions in excess of fifty dollars, despite the legal requirement to maintain the name and address of each contributor any amount in excess of $50, and dozens of additional donors who provided incomplete information. (link here) The info is easily available if you try. But Obama isnt trying, and in fact has enabled the fraud to occur. This is a clear case of facilitation of fraud. As others have reported: I]n order to accept donations from "Della Ware" and "Saddam Hussein" et al, the Obama website had, intentionally, to disable all the default security settings on their credit-card processing. I took a look at the inner sanctum of my (alas, far more modest) online retail operation this afternoon and, in order to permit fraud as easy as that which the Obama campaign is facilitating, you have to uncheck every single box on the AVS system, each one of which makes it very explicit just what you're doing - ie, accepting transactions with no "billing address", no "street address" match, no "zip code" match, with a bank "of non-US origin" (I've got nothing against those, but a US campaign fundraiser surely should be wary), etc. When you've disabled the whole lot one step at a time, then you've got a system tailor-made for fake names and bogus addresses.

ATLAS EXCLUSIVE: OBAMA'S CONTRIBUTIONS FROM ACTIVIST JUDGES


Deuteronomy 16:18b The judges shall judge the people with righteous judgment. 19 You shall not prevent justice; you shall not show partiality; neither shall you take a bribe; for a bribe blinds the eyes of the wise and perverts the words of the righteous. 20 Justice and only justice shall you follow. (hat tip Randall) KRYTOCRACY: A Government of Judges, Rule by the Arbitrary feelings of Unelected Judges. Activist judges that usurp the law and impose their will on the little people. The Judicial Code of Conduct says a federal judge should not make a contribution to a political candidate or organization. Welcome to Obamaland. Cynthia Gray, an ethics expert with the American Judicature Society, said: Federal judges are supposed to be as apolitical as possible, not to show any sort of indication that they would tip to one side or the other. But the punishment for such a violation is pretty light. Gray said a complaint could be filed to the chief circuit court judge, who could then call Campbell and remind her of the judicial code. Activist judges know which side their bread is buttered, so they are spreading their largess to the man that has no regard for rule of law. And if the law gets in his way ............

SAN DIEGO It is time for Congress to impeach U.S. District Judge Napoleon Jones. Judge Jones ruled on Wednesday that the Boy Scouts of America must leave their aquatics center on San Diego's Fiesta Island in which the Scouts have invested millions of dollars since 1987. Jones says that the Scouts are "an admittedly religious, albeit nonsectarian and discriminatory organization" and thus violate the constitutional "separation of church and state" by holding a public-private partnership with San Diego. In a similar ruling last summer, Jones found "overwhelming and uncontradicted evidence" that the Boy Scouts violate the separation of church and state by having used San Diego's Balboa Park as a summer camp since 1915. After the City of San Diego recently capitulated to the American Civil Liberties Union in legal opposition to the Boy Scouts' use of Balboa Park, the Scouts face a third ruling by Judge Jones in which they will likely be formally evicted from the camp. Judge Napolean Jones Jr. "just says no" to Scouting ... again!(Church-State Update)(Brief Article) Judge Napolean Jones Jr. outlaws use of public land by Scouts Deseret News (Salt Lake City) April 24, 2004

SAN DIEGO (AP) -- A federal judge outlawed the Boy Scouts' use of public land because a lease implies the city endorses the group's "inherently religious programs and practices." U.S. District Judge Napoleon Jones Jr. scuttled the Scouts' lease of a bay-side aquatics center at Fiesta Island. Last year he barred a similar lease to use a city park. And this was reported yesterday at the WSJ law blog: Federal Judge Caught Out Donating to Obama Campaign WSJ Law blog 10/24/08 A federal judge in Utah found herself in a tough spot recently. Tena Campbell, who was appointed to the bench by President Clinton in 1995, made a $100 contribution to Barack Obamas campaign in August. The Judicial Code of Conduct says a federal judge should not make a contribution to a political candidate or organization. The Salt Lake Tribune reports that Campbell, who listed her occupation as government lawyer, gave $100 on Aug. 28, bringing her total donations to the Obama campaign to $300. The Obama campaign verified the donations and plans to return the money. Campbell, did not return calls from the AP seeking comment. UPDATE: SCREEN SHOTS OF THE DONATIONS:

NATIONAL JOURNAL ON OBAMA'S FEC LOOPHOLES


When asked about the possibility that a single person could use fake names to mask many donations sent via a few credit cards, [General Counsel, Robert] Bauer responded that "both campaigns seem to be in a similar position." Good sum up of Obama's criminal donation schemes: FEC Rules Leave Loopholes For Online Donation Data National Journal by Neil Munro The increasing use of online financial tools, debit cards and prepaid credit cards to make political contributions has created technological loopholes in federal and public oversight of

campaign donations.

Page 12 of 46

The result has been a recent spate of news stories raising questions about apparently implausible or suspicious donations to the presidential campaigns. Right-of-center activists also claim that Barack Obama's campaign has collected tens of millions of dollars from suspect overseas donors. Their complaints spurred the Republican National Committee on Oct. 6 to ask the Federal Election Commission for an investigation of the Obama donations. To test the campaigns' practices, this author bought two pre-paid American Express gift cards worth $25 each to donate to the Obama and McCain campaigns online. As required by law, the campaigns' Web sites asked for, and National Journal provided, the donor's correct name, location and employment. The cards were purchased with cash at a Washington, D.C., drugstore, and the campaigns' Web sites were accessed through a public computer at a library in Fairfax County, Virginia. The Obama campaign's Web site accepted the $25 donation, but the McCain campaign's Web site rejected it. Rebecca Donatelli, president of Campaigns Solutions of Alexandria, Va., which processes donations for John McCain, said her system rejected the donation because American Express could not verify that the donor lived at the address given with the online contribution. The McCain campaign does accept normal credit card donations because staffers can easily check whether the owner of the credit card shares the same billing address as the listed donor, she said. That address-check process costs the campaign about 12 cents, she said. "We could lower our standards and accept more money... but this is John McCain's campaign, and he wants to root out fraud in fundraising and have everything open and as honest as possible," said Donatelli. Obama campaign spokesman Nick Shapiro said, "We review our contributions to ensure that the information donors provide is complete and verifiable. We would only accept a contribution from a pre-paid credit card if the donor provides complete and verifiable information, consistent with FEC guidelines." FEC spokesman Robert Biersack said, "The committees are responsible for providing accurate information about the identifying characteristics of their donors.... The precise mechanisms of that are not necessarily written into the regulations." Donors must provide, and campaigns must send to the FEC, the donor's name, employer and home city. But if a campaign has incomplete information on a donor, it is safe from sanctions if the campaign sends a letter to the donor's address asking for more information, Biersack said. A copy of a passport is also sufficient to validate an overseas donor's eligibility, he said. Campaign funding experts say that real-world difficulties present a significant barrier to anyone trying to make surreptitious direct donations. For example, National Journal's $25 donation would have to be quadrupled to $100, and then repeated 10,000 times, to deliver $1 million to the Obama campaign, which has collected more than $600 million from at least 3.1 million donors. Federal law bars individuals from donating more than $2,300 to a presidential campaign (and a similar amount to a primary campaign), and also requires campaigns to make a public disclosure to the FEC of the names of all donors who contribute more than $200 in one or more transactions. That is how Pamela Geller, an advocate of limited government who runs the blog Atlas Shrugs, discovered invalid donations to the Obama campaign from such fictitious or prohibited donors as Doodad Pro, Hbkjb jkbkj, and a pair of Palestinian brothers in the Gaza Strip who donated $24,321 by July. Since early October, Newsweek, the New York Times and other established publications have described some of Geller's discoveries. But by ignoring these donations until last week, "the media has abdicated its role as public servant," she said. Kenneth Timmerman, a right-of-center author based in Bethsda, Md., followed up on Geller's work. In an Oct. 19 article for the news Web site Newsmax, Timmerman argued that the FEC database lists up to 37,000 foreign contributors to Obama. These unverified donors made 60,000 contributions, worth a total of up to $63 million, he said. Donations ending with odd numbers of cents, such as $55.32, he said, suggest that the donations were made in a foreign currency before being converted to dollars. [...] But the Obama campaign's failure to verify donors' identities or addresses is suspicious, he said. All campaigns collect that data to verify donors and to persuade donors to work as volunteers. If the verification checks are disabled, "there's no limit on how much a relatively small number of people could donate to the campaign on credit cards," he said. If they're not checking the donors, he said, "they're thumbing their nose at the law." There's no downside because the establishment media will go easy on them before the election, and they can easily raise funds to pay fines once they're in power, he said. When asked about the possibility that a single person could use fake names to mask many donations sent via a few credit cards, Bauer responded that "both campaigns seem to be in a similar position." Did he just say that? McCain has all sorts of safeguards in place. Obama, not one. It's an indepth piece. The best thing I have seen yet.

MORE RECKLESS OBAMA CAMPAIGN FRAUD: NO REFUNDS, NO ACCOUNTABILITY, MORE GIBBERISH DONORS
Despite that fact that Atlas broke the campaign contribution story back in July no one paid attention (even the blogs ignored this huge story - huh), but Obama didn't ignore it. He answered almost immediately (with little prompting) saying the contributions from Gaza were returned. He knew the in-the-tank-for-Obama- media would buy it and bury it. He claimed to have refunded the donations but he didn't - go here here - posted at A tlas on August 26. He is laughing at us, at this country, at our laws, at the rule of law. Does he think he is above the law? And is he? Obama has not stopped or corrected his illegal activity in any way. Cathy discovered these gibberish doantions today (Gibberish donations first reported at Atlas on August 2, 2008) HDUSAHFD, DAHSUDHU HKVKV, K VKN K V KHV, KHV Here's the spreadsheet: link here Fraudulent donations. It appears that the Obama creative accountants are using the reattribute/redesignate categories (esp with HDUSAHFD) to move money around.. The campaign has kept $1,542 of these donations. The New York Times said (over at NRO here): To be fair to the Obama campaign, officials there have said much of their checking for fraud occurs after the transactions have already occurred. When they find something wrong, they then refund the amount. A reader adds, So how much do you think they make in the float? On $5 or $10 not much, but add it all up, what do they make in interest by keeping $10 millions in bad money for a month? It

must be nice to be able to rent money for such a cheap rate. _____________________________________________________________

Cathy added: Of the foreign donations (admitted to be the most abused category) there are 38 refunds totaling $38k through September 08. There are 34 credit card chargebacks and returned by bank transactions totaling $32k through September 08. Grand total refunded by the campaign $70k. That's thousand. That's over the period of the ENTIRE CAMPAIGN. We are watching this election being stolen and the talking heads (our talking heads!) say nothing. Why isn't anyone calling the New York Times out of their aiding and abeting of criminal activity? Who keeps saying they are refunding millions? Here is a donor in September 08 that warrants a new type of description: "Refunded in October". There is no way the name and city could possibly match on a typical credit card matching system. Perhaps this is an example of the prepaid debit card scams? We have seen this repeated over and over. Cathy picked up 'Returned by Bank' along with the 'CC Chargebacks'. Click pics to enlarge CREDIT CARD FRAUD (Cathy's screenshot)

This from Delaware ............. Here is Kong Mong and Jockim Alberton. Obviously made up names. Made up employers and made up occupations. The New York Times did a "critical piece"? What happened to investigative journalism? They have done no work ..... and when they report it - they steal it, like Isikoff over at Newsweek and the deride it. They are trying to sweep this under the rug, put this monster to bed. IT IS VAST. Kong donated $1,065.00 in 105 separate transactions on different days in February 08. The Obama campaign did not refund ANYTHING. They were charged back $330.00 of the total amount (they still have 735.00). Yes, the Obama campaign is surely on this fraud! Jockim donated $520.00 in 2007. That's right 2007. Twenty-two separate transactions. The campaign did not refund any of the donations. There are chargebacks for $75.00 in February 08. Obama has kept $445.00. Cathyb found this easily. With all the money the campaign is spending, do you think they could monitor the fraud? Perhaps they could turn on the credit card processing security triggers? Here's the spreadsheet at google docs. I broke this story in June and sent it to a lot of power figures. Why didn't the investigation kick then? Why was valuable time wasted. Why? Further for all thise cribbing and not crediting Atlas stories. Disgusting. Kudos to Powerline for giving credit where credit is due. Good men all. (hat tip the intrepid Cathy). And Aaron Klein over at WND gave credit first. Ken Timmerman credits Atlas as well. Jack Kelly did too in 'Toledo Blade' here. Big thanks to Neil Munroe for interviewing me for a piece that will appear in The National Journal. PICK UP THE STORY AND RUN GIVE CREDIT WHERE IT IS DUE.

OBAMA ACCEPTS DONATIONS FROM AL QAEDA LINKED TERRORISTS


Obama has illegally been taking donations from Tamil Tiger leaders, according to the FEC. The Tamil Tigers are, according to the FBI, the most successful terrorist group in the world. A well- known LTTE operative whose funds were returned by an embarrassed Clinton campaign earlier this year has turned around and made a donation to the campaign of Democratic presidential hopeful Senator Barack Obama. This time, the money has not been rejected and theres another pro-LTT E group out there raising more. (more here) I have reported these tamil tiger terrorists here and here. According to the US Federal Election Commission (FEC.GOV), Obama (as well as the head of the US Congress Sri Lanka Caucus - Representative Rush Holt) has accepted donations from, as well as funds raised by, the same American LTTE fundraiser, Mr. Ram Ranjan, whose was fired by Hillary Clinton campaign for his terror links, according to Clinton's foreign policy advisor, Andrew Shapiro. Ranjan was formerly regional director of the now banned TRO, according to the Seattle Times. Hillary Clinton rejected these blood stained dollars from al qaeda tied Tamil tigers. Not only that, but Tamilnet photographed Obama hugging and kissing the now-jailed LTTE terrorist politician Vaiko. (here) The LTTE also gave al-qaeda passports in the World Trade Center 1993 incident - here is that article hat tip Randall via Mark (open thread at OC) .....a new group calling itself Progressive Tamils for Obama is raising funds for the candidate. Definitely, the rhetoric on the groups website strongly suggests an LTTE presence: We Progressive Tamil Americans expect that Senator Obama will become the next president of the US. We hope that when he becomes president next January, he will be supportive of our concerns, especially of the continuing suffering of our friends and families in Sri Lanka. We are dismayed by the continuing slow genocide of Tamils there. Who is killing who? This is the Odinga style of speaking. Calling for a Bosnian model solution to the conflict, the group says: We urge the 44th president of the Unite States, Mr. Obama, to take a strong hand in resolving this civil war.] UPDATE: This image is for a donation in March, 2008 (Primary) for $500 (hat tip Cathy)

WHO IS JOHN GALT? A CONTRIBUTOR TO COLLECTIVIST OBAMA'S CAMPAIGN, OF COURSE! UPDATE: RNC FILES SUPPLEMENT COMPLAINT TO FEC
THIS STORY HAS LEGS, OTHER BLOGS DON'T CITE ATLAS - BUT IT BROKE HERE FIRST yesterday 6:-01 pm UPDATE: JUST IN FROM RNC: (hat tip Mark) The Republican National Committee (RNC) today filed a supplement to its complaint with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) against the Obama for America campaign addressing its acceptance of foreign national and excessive contributions, donations from unknown sources, and demonstrated lack of oversight or concern for compliance with the law. The complaint demonstrates that the Obama campaign has failed to comply with federal campaign finance law in its fundraising. RNC Chief Counsel Sean Cairncross released the following statement today concerning the supplement to the complaint: Based on numerous press accounts that have come to light since our initial filing in early October, it is clear that the Obama for America campaign is operating outside of the law. The complete and total lack of any control mechanisms within the Obama campaigns fundraising operation has undermined any confidence in their ability to curtail excessive, foreign, and fraudulent contributions and demands immediate attention from the Federal Election Commission (FEC). UPDATE 11:58: SCREENSHOTS BELOW UPDATE 11:08 pm: Washington Post reports Woman's Credit Card Charged $175,000 to Obama. This is a part of Obama's financial donating money laundering. There is enormous amount of money being secreted into the Obama campaign from foreign sources. It is fairly safe to say these countries will be richly rewarded - Kenya, Indonesia but most of all - Obama will drop a load on the UN. Fosho. The crooked, corrupt international one world global warmers have the largest stake in this election. Back on August 14th, I wrote that Julia Gorin told me a funny story. About four months ago. Her husband's co-worker wanted to see what would happen if he tried giving a contribution to the

Obama campaign via a credit card. He used his Macy's card. The system accepted it. He tried the same with McCain's campaign, and the transaction wouldn't go through. Atlas reader Craig submits to me the following, I may have just uncovered how the Obama campaign is facilitating massive donation fraud. Ive read recent reports of the Obama campaign receiving donations from dubious names and foreign locales and it got me wondering; how is this possible? I run a small internet business and when I process credit cards Im required to make sure the name on the card exactly matches the name of the customer making the purchase. Also, the purchasers address must match that of the cardholders. If these dont match, then the payment isnt approved. Period. So how is it possible that the Obama campaign could receive donations from fictional people and places? Well, I decided to do a little experiment. I went to the Obama campaign website and entered the following: Name: John Galt Address: 1957 Ayn Rand Lane City: Galts Gulch State: CO Zip: 99999 Then I checked the box next to $15 and entered my actual credit card number and expiration date (it didnt ask for the 3-didgit code on the back of the card) and it took me to the next page and Your donation has been processed. Thank you for your generous gift. This simply should not, and could not, happen in any business or any campaign that is honestly trying to vet its donors. Also, I dont see how this could possibly happen without the collusion of the credit card companies. They simply wouldnt allow any business to process, potentially, hundreds of millions in credit card transactions where the name on the card doesnt match the purchasers name. Not unless Obama's campaign is warehousing donations (held back) and any that fail or are rejected by the credit card companies or for any other reason are covered by illegal donations. In short, with the system set up as it is by the Obama camp, an individual could donate unlimited amounts of money by simply making up fake names and addresses. And Obama is doing his best to facilitate this fraud. This is truly scandalous. Yes, and then cover them with illegal funds. Sincerely, Craig PS I tried the exact same thing at the McCain site and it didnt allow the transaction. Pss I went back to the Obama site and made three additional donations using the names Osama Bin Laden, Saddam Hussein and Bill Ayers, all with different addresses. All the transactions went thru using the same credit card. I saved screen shots of the transactions if you want them CLICK BELOW FOR SCREEN SHOTS Continue reading "WHO IS JOHN GALT?

OBAMA'S CONTRIBUTIONS/EXPENSES: ABSOLUTE CORRUPTION


Going through the latest FEC filings on Obamabucks, is nothing short of staggering. The numbers, the blatant flagrant exploitation of lapsed (almost none) FEC enforcement and the thuggery that accompanies exposing anything tied to voter fraud or Obama's money Obama's money has resulted in complete lawlessness. Expenses reported thru 8/31/0: Expenses reported thru 9/30/08 (filtered to exclude 9/30/08) $386,027,050.31

New expenses for 8/31/08 and earlier not reported as required $2,699,858.13 Can they not report 2.7 million in expenses as required and the just drop in 2.7 million as a frickin footnote?

More Obama Campaign Contribution Irregularities


B. Hussein has raised ONE HUNDRED FIFTY MILLION in the month of September. He is receiving donations at a rate of $200,000 a hour. By Obamas own admission, more than half of his contributions have come from small donors giving $200 or less. But unlike John McCains campaign, Obama wont release the names of these donors. If I want to fraud donate this is the way I would do it. (submitted by anonymous) Keep the total amount under 200 bucks per donation so it does not show up in the FEC report for people to even pick up to look at. Take a list for example of all the new voters that ACORN has registered this year so you have a name and address. Set up a front company that allows pay as you go cash up front debit or credit cards to be created by you. Create a fake card for each new registered voter (real people not fake names) from your list. Put 190 bucks balance on each new card you created and offset if with a single deposit from daddy big bucks to split out into all these new cards. Pick from the phone book for each city a list of companies or businesses and at random assign each 'donor' a boss they are employed by. Based on the type of company it is (available from government sources) assign a job that sounds reasonable for that company or just pull random company/job combos for that city from the existing FEC data base. Who is gonna look to see if Joe SixPack is really a lawyer at Ambulance Chasers R Us LLC Pretty soon with say 45000 donations at 190 a pop you can add up to some major cash real quick.

Other wise if you want to bump it up even quicker pick people from the voter registration listing all around the country (real deal people from voter rolls NOT ones you registered) and look for those who never ever donated to the FEC. Then have the same fake cards made up and filled with up to 28,500 bucks at a pop or less to spread the dollar amounts around and shove it through the Joint Victory Fund. So Joe Six Pack Voter who never donated all of a sudden may have proxy given 22,000 to the Joint Victory Fund and would never know it unless he checked the data base to see if his donation was there. For that example the only way you are likely to get nabbed is if for example the law firm you used as a shill donor for Joe Six Pack checks to see how much all their shysters donated and comes up with this big donor joe and they don't have a clue as to who he is. Then you have a problem, but the campaign is clean since they had no way to know and the front company just disappears into the sunset. Jim W read my original article on Senator Obama's campaign contribution irregularities a couple of months ago. He attached his research based on the FEC files that he downloaded on 9/22/2008. His research indicates there may be a large number of donations that were made in donor's names that were not actually made by those donors. If you read the document, it's validity depends on whether the indicated donations were made by the actual donors. While I could call them His whole premise depends on the fact that these donors did not make these donations. He has identified many other examples that must be investigated. If someone can verify the 20 donor's contributions he has listed that will confirm his thesis. If it turns out that he is right, he can identify hundreds of more examples. If anyone can check these names out that is the first step. Validate these and he can give us hundreds more. Jim privided me with an Excel workbook that has a couple of spreadsheets. The first sheet has a list of the "non-traditional" contributions which had a single date incidence of 10 or greater. They are sorted by date. There are several examples of grouping on a single or consecutive dates. The second sheet has the donors that were listed with with that donation on the first date. He color coded additional contributions that are very suspect. Several of the donors show a three part donation on the same date. He didn't include the field but the transaction will include two donations of the same amount, one positive, one negative. They will be listed in the description as redistribution to/redistrbution from. As always it doesn't say where they're going. Then there is the third transaction that is sometimes the same and sometimes completely different. Can any readers be helpful tracking these folks? If so email me off line - writeatlas@aol.com UPDATE: Carolyn made an excellent suggestion, Perhaps a lot of us who have never donated to anything democratic should be looking and telling our friends to do the same and then report the fraud? If so, where can we look? Here's the link, look for your name!

Obama Won't Meet with Jews *even with preconditons


If you need only one good reason NOT to vote for Obama, this works.

Obama Campaign Withdraws From Jewish Debates Around Country!


Will they also duck debates in Philadelphia, Los Angeles, New York and Cleveland? The Obama campaign has instituted a new policy of not debating Republican Jews at community candidates' forums. Forum organizers are being told to provide surrogates who are not from the Republican Jewish Coalition. Temple Sinai, in suburban Philadelphia, was told that Obama surrogate, state Rep. Josh Shapiro, could not participate with RJC Philadelphia Director Scott Feigelstein. The synagogue was ordered to find someone else if they wished to have an Obama representative. This is not the first time that the Obama campaign has made such a demand of Jewish forum organizers. Obama has proclaimed that he wants to engage Jew-haters like Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad without preconditions, but the Obama campaign will not engage Republican Jews. (If this is how Obama & Company treat Jewish voters BEFORE the election, imagine how they'll treat Jews after they've achieved power!) Given how troubling Senator Obama's record is on Israel, it's fairly obvious that he's afraid he'd lose a fair debate. Or maybe he feels that the gaps between his position and Iran's are less than his differences with Jewish voters? Or perhaps he just feels so much more comfortable with terrorist Rashid Khalidi, Rev. Wright, Louis Farrakhan and their fellow Jew-haters? Bottom Line: Unless you wish for Israel to be destroyed by Islam, DON'T vote for Obama.

Unclear? What other motive could there be for using a phony name and a nonexistent address to make multiple small donations using a single credit card than to evade U.S. election laws? Such journalistic gullibility may explain why bloggers have been on this story for months and the Times is only now noticing.

MCCAIN MENTIONS GAZA CONTRIBUTIONS


The story that Atlas broke (back on July 30th) and that Newsweek's Isikoff plagiarized. gets the attention of the Rip Van Winkle McCain campaign. This was BLOG INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM. Converting thousands of pages of documents, going through each donor individually, going through thousands of foreign donors, Cathy getting up at 3 am, going to work at 5 am and working on it thru the work day for two weeks and more weekends coming up with the Gaza stuff, John Jay coming up with enormous anonymous donor totals, .............. "McCain also raised the specter of illegal foreign donors to Obama's campaign and special "earmark" spending requests for campaign fundraisers. "Why has Sen. Obama refused to disclose the names of people funding his campaign," McCain said as the crowd booed. "His campaign had to return $33,000 in illegal foreign funds from Palestinian donors." McCain's reference was based on a Newsweek article that said Obama's campaign had returned the money to two brothers living in the Gaza Strip. According to the article, the two Palestinians "had bought T-shirts in bulk from the campaign's online store. They had listed their address as 'Ga.,' which the campaign took to mean Georgia rather than Gaza."

OBAMA CONTRIBUTIONS: THE RNC FINALLY BLINKS!, ATLAS GETS RESULTS! NEWSWEAK PLAGIARIZES ATLAS
ATLAS BROKE THE STORY ON ILLEGAL OBAMA CONTRIBUTIONS. All of our hard work pays off. Finally, the RNC has stepped out of its self induced coma and is taking some action. RNC to file FEC complain accusing Obama campaign of taking money from foreign nationals. Chicago Sun Times (hat tip Miira) I have been exposing these egregious acts since July (Obama's Contributions: Foreign and Domestic) and nothing has been done, and the media has averted it eyes. The RNC is a tough party to support. They are so lethargic. UPDATE: Newsweak has it here - cites all my work, doesn't cite Atlas Exclusive (typical big media pigs). And the got it wrong. Isikoff is taking plagiarizing lessons from Biden. The Newsweek article includes statement by the Obama campaign that they returned all the money from Palestinian brothers. The records show they did not. Also, they do not point out that they sent the tee shirts to GAZA. The brothers had them and sold them. I started my investigation back in July and came up with "donors" like this The name: Hbkjb, jkbkj City: Jkbjnj Works for: Kuman Bank (doesn't exist) Occupation: Balanon Jalalan Amount: $1,077.23 On July 30th, I posted Obama's Anonymous Foreign Donors and Other Bizarre Illegal Activity where I found 500k donated by "not employed" people. On July 31st: Obama's Contributors: Good Will? Loving you? UPDATE: Doo da DooDa and the contributions from Gaza. OBAMA LIED: "Palestinian" Campaign Contributions NEVER RETURNED OR REFUNDED OBAMA'S CONTRIBUTIONS: I SEE FAKE PEOPLE ... OVER THE LIMIT Obama's Foreign Donors: The media averts its eyes American Thinker UPDATE: tc wrtes, "hussein obama's heavy hitters are now circling their wagons around the anointed one - and beginning the usual obfuscation, misinformation, misdirection campaign ..."oh, we have no idea who these donors are, where they come from...and it's only a few thousands of dollars, ...besides we tried to give the donations back..."" Yeah right.

More Fraud in the Obama Campaign Donations

OBAMA FOREIGN ILLEGAL CONTRIBUTIONS: INFILTRATION AT FEC, DOJ, and FBI


OBAMA'S FISHY 200 MILLION American Spectator FEC Auditor Blows the Whistle on $200 Million in Fishy Obama Donations REQUESTS TO INVESTIGATE IGNORED BY FEC, DOJ, and FBI I could not understand why the stories I broke back in Julyof Obama's illegal foreign contributions did not lead to further investigations. Laws were broken. Now we know why. We are looking at a Marxist takeover of the White House, no I am not exaggerating. An auditor for the Federal Election Commission is attempting to have his bosses seek a formal investigation into the collection by the Obama for President campaign of more than $200 million in potentially illegal political donations, including millions of dollars of illegal, foreign donations, and has sought a request for assistance from the Department of Justice or Federal Bureau of Investigation. But the analysts requests have largely been ignored. I cant get anyone to move. I believe we are looking at a hijacking of our political system no one wants to touch it.

One reasons cited by his superiors, says the analyst, is that involvement by the Justice Department or FBI would be indicative of a criminal investigation, something the FEC would prefer not take place a month before the presidential election. Such actions, though, have been used to scuttle Republican campaigns in the past, the most famous being the Weinberger case in the days leading up to the 1992 re-election bid of President George H.W. Bush. The analyst, who declines to be identified for fear of retribution, says that on four different occasions in the past three months, he sought to open formal investigations into the Obama campaigns fundraising techniques, but those investigations have been discouraged. Without formal approval, I cant get the resources I need, manpower, that kind of thing. This is a huge undertaking. And the analyst says that he believes that campaign finance violations have occurred I started my investigation back in July and came up with "donors" like this The name: Hbkjb, jkbkj City: Jkbjnj Works for: Kuman Bank (doesn't exist) Occupation: Balanon Jalalan Amount: $1,077.23 On July 30th, I posted Obama's Anonymous Foreign Donors and Other Bizarre Illegal Activity where I found 500k donated by "not employed" people.

OBAMA'S FOREIGN DONATIONS: Jagan, Son of chief minister of Andhrapradesh


The donation scandal is oof the rails and the left is so in the tank for uh uh uhbama, there is no accountability. It's sick. Here's an illegal donation for you: (hat tip the ever intrepid Cathy) YS Jagan Mohan Reddy - Indian National donated $500 City: SCH?NECK Occupation: IS IT Employer: NESTL? GLOBE CENTER EUROPE Here's his home page: "Son of chief minister of Andhrapradesh, an industrialist, leader of youth in Andhrapradesh, a deciplined social worker who worked for the development of youth by setting up industries, serving the aged,orphans and widows by means of charitable trusts has become a role model for the youth.There are many fanclubs and yuva senas on his name in Andhrapradesh who are carrying forward his good works on his name.All this shows how his image is stamped in the hearts of the people.

All this shows how his image is stamped in the hearts of the people.All of this is because of his works towards these people for about 15 years honestly. If he's so honest, why is he making illegal contributions.

More media on Obama's Foreign, Illegal Contributions


Good to see Ken Timmerman over at Newsmax picked up on my series of Obama foreign contributions story I broke on July 31st. Timmerman does a good job, read it. . He also picked up on Doodad and Good Will - broken July 31st here Malkin mentions it (here) but doesn't mentionObama's Gaza contributions, which is odd. Burt Powerline does :) OBAMA LIED: "Palestinian" Campaign Contributions NEVER RETURNED OR REFUNDED OBAMA'S CONTRIBUTIONS: I SEE FAKE PEOPLE ... OVER THE LIMIT

Atlas Shrugs: Obama's Contributions: Foreign and Domestic


My piece over at American Thinker on Obama's Foreign Donations Obama's Foreign Donors: The media averts its eyes By Pamela Geller

Page 21 of 46

I have been researching, documenting and studying thousands upon thousands of Obama's campaign donations for the past month. Egregious abuse was immediately evident and I published the results of my ongoing investigation. Each subsequent post built a more damning case against Obama's illegal contribution activity. The media took little notice of what I was substantiating. I went so far as to upload the documents so that anyone could do their own research. I asked readers to download the documents and a number of folks pitched in. Despite dropping the groundbreaking bombshell story of "Palestinian" brothers from the Rafah refugee camp in Gaza who donated $33,000 to Obama's campaign, no big media picked up the story. Jihadis donating to Obama from Gaza? Could there be a bigger story? Foreign donations are illegal, but this story was all that and so much more. The "Palestinian" brothers were proud and vocal of their "love" for Obama. Their vocal support on behalf of "Palestinians" spoke volumes to Obama's campaign. And yet still no media. But Obama pricked up his ears. He smelled trouble and while no media asked, he answered anyway. Sen. Obama's campaign immediately scrambled and contended they had returned the $33,500 in illegal contributions from Palestinians in Hamas-controlled Gaza, despite the fact that records do not show that it was returned and the brothers said they have not received any money. Having gone through all of Obama's refunds redesignations etc, no refund was made to Osama, Hossam, or Edwan Monir in the Rafah refugee camp. And still no media. One of the Gazan brothers, Monir Edwan (identified here), claimed he bought "Obama for President" T-shirts off Obama's website and then sold the T-shirts in Gaza for a profit. All purchases on the Barack Obama website are considered contributions. The Palestinians allegedly claimed "they were American citizens", so said Obama's people. They listed their address -- zip code 972 (ironically the area code for Israel) and they input "GA"the state abbreviation for Georgia (screen shot here) They actually lived in a Hamas controlled refugee camp. So if Obama's people thought it was "Georgia" why did they ship the tee shirts to the correct address in Gaza? Shipping overseas to a Gaza refugee camp is vastly different than the state next door. Still no media. "Some young men even bought the T-shirts for 60 shekel ($17.29), which is a lot to spend in Gaza on a T-shirt, but that is how much Gazans like Obama," Edwan claimed in a follow up article in the conservative websiet WorldNetDaily. And Hamas has publicly endorsed Obama. And still no media. Obama's campaign said the Palestinian brothers in the Middle East made $33,000 in illegal donations to the campaign via the internet. The donations came in between Sept. 20 and Dec. 6 and virtually all of the money, about $33,500, was returned by December 6. But the refunds weren't reported to the Federal Election Commission due to a technical error, campaign officials said. If McCain had been involved with something so dark and nefarious, taking money from Islamic jihad, his candidacy would never withstand the media blowback. But it was the son of hope, the agent of change, the one we have been waiting for , so the media yawned. The jihad donations were hardly the only bloody red flags. The first in my series of posts ran July 19th. The documents were so unwieldy, readers like John, Doc, and Cathy (who discovered Rafah) were working furiously to cross check our findings at the FEC site and then mine the data. Obama's overseas (foreign) 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 are aggregating in excess of the maximums when all added up. 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, Mississauga, 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, Half a million dollars had been donated from overseas by unidentified people "not employed". Digging deeper, all sorts of very bizarre activity jumped at us. Dr and JJ continued to break it down and pull data from various sources. We found Rebecca Kurth contributed $3,137.38 to the Obama Campaign in 112 donations, including 34 separate donations recorded in one day, How about this gibberish donor on the 30th of April in 2008. A donor named Hbkjb, jkbkj City: Jkbjnj Works for: Kuman Bank (doesn't exist) Occupation: Balanon Jalalan Amount: $1,077.23 or the donor Doodad, The # of transactions = 1,044 The $ contributed = $10,780.00 This Doodad character works for FDGFDGF and occupation is DFGFDG The more questions we answered the more questions we discovered. Thousands of Obama's foreign donations ended in cents. The "cents" did not make sense. And we compared McCain donation documentss to Obama's. McCain's records are nothing like Obama's. McCain's are so clean. No cents, all even dollar amounts. But Obama's contained thousands of strange, odd amounts -- evidence of foreign contributors, since Americans living

overseas would almost uniformly be able to contribute dollars. Still no media.

Julia Gorin told me a funny story two months ago. Her husband's co-worker wanted to see what would happen if he tried giving a contribution to the Obama campaign via a credit card. He used his Macy's card. The system accepted it. He tried the same with McCain's campaign, and the transaction wouldn't go through. Now, obviously, down the line, the Obama transaction would fail as well, but it goes to the point that there is no safety system in place -- it'll just accept any and all money, which helps explain how his campaign raised so much more money than everyone else's. Go read my whole article -- it's been ignored too long. UPDATE: Bingo! I've been saying this for weeks: Obama went to Berlin to encourage illegal oveseas contributions. Also, here in the USA, illegal Obama contributions are being made by key operatives with "walking around money". The method used is to buy disposable charge cards and give amounts under $200. With a disposable charge card, any name can be used. The ones mentioned in the article were easy to find. You can find the rest of them by examining Obama's server logs. You'll see that on many occassions, inside of 20 minutes, several people have given money from the same IP address. More than likely, thats Soros funded "volunteer", a union hack or some other connected person sitting at a Starbucks wiht a laptop, using the disposable charge cards and phony names to make contributions. This would explain a significant portion of all the "new" small donors Obama claims to have. Posted by: Rex | October 1, 2008 01:21 PM Here is my anonymous foreign donor post back on July 30th here.

ALSHEIKH, RIYADH CAMPAIGN $$ FOR OBAMA


More wahhabi donations for Obama. (more on Obama's illegal here) Much thanks to Cathy for the research. Obama for America Donations thru 7/31/08 name city state ALSHEIKH, ABDULLAH RIYADH NA employer occupation amount date BERU OF INVESTIGATION AND PROPROSECUTER [sic] 200.00 12-Jan-08 And then there is this Rehan Atiq, co-founder of MXV Capital - gave $250 - location Qatar. More here Rehan Atiq does not appear to be a US citizen. More jihad money for the Muslim candidate -- you may not like it but the Islamic world believes Obama is a Muslim and I am not so sure they're wrong. One only has to look at someone like Ibn Warraq who lead a somewhat parallel life to Obama - both born Muslims, raised in Muslim countries, and attended madrassah until early teens. I can assure you Ibn Warraq would not be receiving money from Riyadh or Muslims living in Rafah, Gaza. Look at Ibn Warraq - this from Andrew Bostom: Ibn Warraq's formal childhood experience of Islam mirrored Barack Obama's -- it was no more extensive. Yet despite copious evidence to the contrary, Barack Obama has gone to great lengths to deny even a nominal childhood Muslim upbringing. These repeated, often shrill and accusatory denials are accompanied by a disturbing, if predictable silence: not once has Senator Obama celebrated the remarkable freedom of conscience he had here in America to decide in his mid to late 20s that he would practice Christianity openly, and devotedly, absent any consideration of his childhood Muslim background. Mr. Obama has thus far squandered the unparalleled opportunity to highlight and extol a profoundly important virtue of this flawed, but still great country of ours, personified by his life story: America's singular, unwavering support for true freedom of conscience. Surely if Obama is to live up to his followers (and his own) pretensions of being a "transformative" figure, then he should be ready to elucidate, frankly, the utter lack of freedom of conscience in the Muslim world, relative to the US; why his own life trajectory demonstrates this difference; and how the fight against global jihadism is, at its core, about the protection of this most profoundly important Western ideal. Obama, 9/11, and Freedom of Conscience Dr. Andrew Bostom During an interview with George Stephanopoulos of ABC News which aired Sunday September 7, 2009, Barack Obama bemoaned what he claimed were insidious Republican attempts to "promulgate," falsely, his "Muslim connections." Senator Obama then made a minor gaffe (at ~ 2 minutes 50 seconds, here), in his half-hearted exculpation of Senator McCain: "John McCain has not talked about my Muslim faith." Stephanopoulos, who earlier defended McCain against Obama's general anti-Republican allegations, then corrected Obama's misstatement with instantaneous, politically-correct alacrity, reminding the Democratic Presidential nominee, "...[you meant] your Christian faith." And certainly the full context of the discussion makes clear Obama was not in any way acknowledging some personal embrace of Islam, when he responded, "What I meant to say, he [McCain] hasn't suggested that I am Muslim." But the self-aggrieved, whining tone of Senator Obama's interview struck me as particularly inappropriate occurring just four days prior to his scheduled appearance with Senator McCain at Ground Zero, in lower Manhattan. Both men will suspend their Presidential campaigns to be present at a joint, non-partisan event, Thursday, September 11, 2008, commemorating the 7th anniversary of the cataclysmic acts of mass-murdering jihad terrorism on September 11, 2001. Those savage attacks represent a jihadist assault on our core Western values-prominently among them, the freedom of conscience Barack Obama's personal biography epitomizes-despite his apparent obliviousness to, or denial of, this reality. Sober, independent analyses by academics, including published essays in The Christian Science Monitor, and The New York Times, concur that Obama's childhood experience of Islam -- as perceived by Muslims from Islamic societies, in particular -- has two critically important, and inter-related ramifications: his status as a Muslim; and more ominously, as an apostate from Islam. During his childhood years in Indonesia, Barack Obama was enrolled as a Muslim (see here, here, here, and here) at his primary schools (this is confirmed, conclusively, in a registration document -- which the Associated Press photographed -- made available on Jan. 24, 2007, by the Fransiskus Assisi school in

Jakarta, Indonesia, demonstrating that his Muslim step-father listed Obama's boyhood religion as Islam), and also attended the mosque during that period. Tine Hahiyary, a former teacher at one of these schools, claimed that the young Obama actively took part in "mengaji" classes (consistent with devout Islamic education), which instruct students to read the Koran in Arabic. And the Indonesian daily Banjarmasin Post interviewed Rony Amir, a Muslim classmate of the young Obama, who characterized Obama as "...previously quite religious in Islam." While disputing Obama's childhood Muslim religiosity, a subsequent Chicago Tribune report still concedes that the young Obama was at least an irregularly practicing Muslim, who occasionally prayed with his step-father in a mosque. Irrespective of Obama's Muslim devoutness as a child, one must also bear in mind how contemporary (and classical) Islamic Law views the offspring of any marriage between a Muslim man (Obama's birth father and step-father were both Muslims), and a non-Muslim woman. Sheikh 'Abdus-Sattar Fathallah AsSa`eed, professor of Koranic Exegesis and Koranic Sciences at Al-Azhar University -- for more a thousand years, the pre-eminent center of Sunni Islamic religious education -- in a recently issued a fatwa (June 20, 2002), reiterated plainly the Islamic principle that paternity determines (Muslim) religious identity for a child born of a Muslim father, and a non-Muslim wife: Posted by Pamela Geller on Thursday, September 18, 2008 at 12:07 PM in Obama's Contributions: Foreign and Domestic | Permalink | Comments (3) | TrackBack (0)

OBAMA SUPRRESSES TRUTH VIA GOOGLE SEARCH


This is what the man does. He is an enemy of free speech. He suppresses the truth, a true child of his mentors Marshall and Alinsky. Barack Obama Uses Google to Combat Vicious Rumors US News World Report Searches for some of the "most pervasive Internet rumours" often turn up links to his campaign website Barack Obama is waging an quiet battle in the Googlesphere to combat damagingrumors, as well as his opponent, John McCain. Specifically, Obama's campaign has waded into online auctions for Google search terms to snap up not only obvious phrases like "Barack Obama" but also potentially negative ones like "Barack Obama birth certificate" or "Barack Obama as a Muslim," according to Hitwise, an Internet audience monitoring firm. This means that, as of Wednesday morning, Google searches for Obama being a Muslim often turn up a prominent "sponsored" link at the top of the results page that connects to a page on Obama's campaign website that debunks the myth and details his Christian faith. Searches for Obama's birth certificate produce a link to a page showing the official document. lol It's not clear how many Web surfers are being driven to his site through these search ads. Data from Hitwise suggest the numbers are relatively low. Whether or not people visit the Obama site, the Google search results page displays, underneath the link, text that denies the specific rumor, such as "Barack Obama is a Christian. Get the facts at his official site." Similarly, a search for "Obama flag pin"referring to another Internet myth that Obama refuses to wear a U.S. flag pin (which is also false)frequently turns up a link to his site, with the text, "He says the Pledge, puts his hand on his heart and wears a flag pin." Other searches, like "Obama Koran" or "Obama Pledge of Allegiance," also usually contain sponsored links to Obama's website. His campaign is not just playing defense. Searches for terms like "Palin Bridge to Nowhere" and "McCain maverick" sometimes display sponsored links back to Obama's campaign website.

JUST WHO THE HELL IS BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA?


Jamal M. Barzinji Gave Obama $1,000. Dr. Jamal al Barzinji is a noted American businessman and political operative, most recently associated with the International Institute of Islamic Thought, the World Assembly of Muslim Youth and the SAAR Foundation. Barzinji is a long-term business associate of Muslim Brotherhood activist and al Taqwa Bank chairman Youssef Nada.[1] Barzinji also serves as a trustee and officer of the Amana Mutual Funds Trust, a growth and income mutual fund headquartered in Bellingham, Washington, along with SAAR co-executive Yaqub Mirza and Talat M. Othman. (more at Wikipedia) World Assembly of Muslim Youth In 1980 Barzinji was a representative of the World Assembly of Muslim Youth (WAMY), alongside Abdallah Osama bin Laden, a younger-half brother of Osama bin Laden. On March 20, 2002, a U.S. Customs Service investigative unit called Operation Green Quest conducted a raid on an allegedly interrelated group of Wahhabiist interests in northern Virginia. Among these were the Herndon, Virginia, VA, offices of Dr. Barzinji, and the SAAR Foundation, created by wealthy Saudi Sulaiman Abdul Aziz Al Rajhi. Obama and those all those Saudi connections. Much thanks to Slim Guy for all of his help. MUSLIMS IN TERROR PROBE MAKING DONATIONS TO OBAMA It's an international Muslim supremacist organization, along the lines of the Nazi Party and the Ku Klux Klan. Jamal M.

Brotherhood front connected to Barzinji, who heads a network of Islamic charities and businesses. [3] In the sea of faces and waving flags stood a woman by the name of Marilyn Katz. Like several of the other radicals who populate Obama's sphere, she once advocated guerilla tactics against police officers and participated in violent riots. Unlike some of her more infamous counterparts like Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn - who are in self-imposed exile until November 5 - Katz is deeply, and officially, involved in Obama's presidential campaign. [4] Barack, you've spent what, a couple of years being a committee chair for some group in Chicago - oh yeah, and your buddy Ayers was also a committee chair on that group. That comprises the totality of your executive work and that really doesn't count when the rubber has to hit the road. Sarah Palin was a mayor and a now a governor - both positions meaning you make a decision and live with the consequences. [5] True to the marxist ideology that both Obama and Catro hold, Obama's threats toward people who are critical of what he's said in the past, about his relationship with Ayers as an example, or what has been happening to the man who accused him of having homosexual sex and doing cocaine in the back of a limo in 1999, Larry Sinclair - are both very similar to what happens in Castro's Cuba. [3] It is impossible to begin to "understand" the kind of insanity that fills Osama Obama's head. They were Bill Ayers writ large. It is a measure of America's greatness that demented, foolish children like Obama can mouth their stupid and traitorous beliefs and survive. It is a measure of America's decline that millions of Americans appear to take him seriously.

OBAMA LIED: "Palestinian" Campaign Contributions NEVER RETURNED OR REFUNDED


On July 31, Atlas broke the explosive bombshell that Obama was receiving big foreign donations andin particular, from the Hamas controlled Rafah refugee camps in Gaza. Jihad money to the tune of 33,000. Despite big media's reluctance to publish anything negative about Obama no matter how important and damning, a couple of publications and talk radio hosts picked up on the story-- and Obama responded. Obama and co. claimed the money was returned. Chalk this up to another Obama lie - the money was never returned. Cathy has been combing through the latest filing and reviewing all past documents. Nothing. Gotz. Nada. According to Glenn Simpson of the Washington Wire in the Wall Street Journal back on August 5th: $33,000 in illegal donations to the campaign via the internet. The brothers sought to buy Obama for President T-shirts in some 97 attempts, 32 of which were initially successful. They wrongly identified themselves as American citizens, campaign officials said, and listed their address as GA, the abbreviation for Georgia, when in fact they live in a refugee camp in Gaza, a rump city-state between Israel and Egypt that is under the control of Hamas. Strangely, the tee shirts found their way to Gaza. So was it Georgia or Gaza. C'mon fellas we're not stupid. The donations came in between Sept. 20 and Dec. 6 and virtually all of the money, about $33,500, was returned by December 6. But the refunds werent reported to the Federal Election Commission due to a technical error, campaign officials said. The remaining $2,500 was refunded Monday. The refunds will all be reflected shortly in an amended report. New controls to prevent such attempts are now in place, the campaign said. There is no refund made to the Gaza donors Adwan, Osama and Edwan .......... and when Simpson of the Wall Street Journal was asked if he would be following up on the Gaza story - he said, no. There is no governance, there is no rule of law -- it's chaos.

ATLAS, AMERICAN THINKER..... MEDIA AVERSION

August 14, 2008 Obama's Foreign Donors: The media averts its eyes By Pamela Geller

Atlas Shrugs: Obama's Contributions: Foreign and Domestic

Page 26 of 46

I have been researching, documenting and studying thousands upon thousands of Obama's campaign donations for the past month. Egregious abuse was immediately evident and I published the results of my ongoing investigation. Each subsequent post built a more damning case against Obama's illegal contribution activity. The media took little notice of what I was substantiating. I went so far as to upload the documents so that anyone could do their own research. I asked readers to download the documents and a number of folks pitched in. Despite dropping the groundbreaking bombshell story of "Palestinian" brothers from the Rafah refugee camp in Gaza who donated $33,000 to Obama's campaign, no big media picked up the story. Jihadis donating to Obama from Gaza? Could there be a bigger story? Foreign donations are illegal, but this story was all that and so much more. The "Palestinian" brothers were proud and vocal of their "love" for Obama. Their vocal support on behalf of "Palestinians" spoke volumes to Obama's campaign. And yet still no media. But Obama pricked up his ears. He smelled trouble and while no media asked, he answered anyway. Sen. Obama's campaign immediately scrambled and contended they had returned the $33,500 in illegal contributions from Palestinians in Hamas-controlled Gaza, despite the fact that records do not show that it was returned and the brothers said they have not received any money. Having gone through all of Obama's refunds redesignations etc, no refund was made to Osama, Hossam, or Edwan Monir in the Rafah refugee camp. And still no media. One of the Gazan brothers, Monir Edwan (identified here), claimed he bought "Obama for President" T-shirts off Obama's website and then sold the T-shirts in Gaza for a profit. All purchases on the Barack Obama website are considered contributions. The Palestinians allegedly claimed "they were American citizens", so said Obama's people. They listed their address -- zip code 972 (ironically the area code for Israel) and they input "GA"the state abbreviation for Georgia (screen shot here) They actually lived in a Hamas controlled refugee camp. So if Obama's people thought it was "Georgia" why did they ship the tee shirts to the correct address in Gaza? Shipping overseas to a Gaza refugee camp is vastly different than the state next door. Still no media. "Some young men even bought the T-shirts for 60 shekel ($17.29), which is a lot to spend in Gaza on a T-shirt, but that is how much Gazans like Obama," Edwan claimed in a follow up article in the conservative websiet WorldNetDaily. And Hamas has publicly endorsed Obama. And still no media. Obama's campaign said the Palestinian brothers in the Middle East made $33,000 in illegal donations to the campaign via the internet. The donations came in between Sept. 20 and Dec. 6 and virtually all of the money, about $33,500, was returned by December 6. But the refunds weren't reported to the Federal Election Commission due to a technical error, campaign officials said. If McCain had been involved with something so dark and nefarious, taking money from Islamic jihad, his candidacy would never withstand the media blowback. But it was the son of hope, the agent of change, the one we have been waiting for , so the media yawned. The jihad donations were hardly the only bloody red flags. The first in my series of posts ran July 19th. The documents were so unwieldy, readers like John, Doc, and Cathy (who discovered Rafah) were working furiously to cross check our findings at the FEC site and then mine the data. Obama's overseas (foreign) 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 are aggregating in excess of the maximums when all added up. 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, Mississauga, 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, Half a million dollars had been donated from overseas by unidentified people "not employed". Digging deeper, all sorts of very bizarre activity jumped at us. Dr and JJ continued to break it down and pull data from various sources. We found Rebecca Kurth contributed $3,137.38 to the Obama Campaign in 112 donations, including 34 separate donations recorded in one day, How about this gibberish donor on the 30th of April in 2008. A donor named Hbkjb, jkbkj City: Jkbjnj Works for: Kuman Bank (doesn't exist) Occupation: Balanon Jalalan Amount: $1,077.23 or the donor Doodad, The # of transactions = 1,044 The $ contributed = $10,780.00 This Doodad character works for FDGFDGF and occupation is DFGFDG The more questions we answered the more questions we discovered. Thousands of Obama's foreign donations ended in cents. The "cents" did not make sense. And we compared McCain donation documentss to Obama's. McCain's records are nothing like

Obama's. McCain's are so clean. No cents, all even dollar amounts. But Obama's contained thousands of strange, odd amounts -- evidence of foreign contributors, since Americans living overseas would almost uniformly be able to contribute dollars. Still no media. Julia Gorin told me a funny story two months ago. Her husband's co-worker wanted to see what would happen if he tried giving a contribution to the Obama campaign via a credit card. He used his Macy's card. The system accepted it. He tried the same with McCain's campaign, and the transaction wouldn't go through. Now, obviously, down the line, the Obama transaction would fail as well, but it goes to the point that there is no safety system in place -- it'll just accept any and all money, which helps explain how his campaign raised so much more money than everyone else's. Despite the evidence of dirty campaign donations, crickets chirped in newsrooms across the country. The moment my Gaza story started to get some chatter on talk radio, the left and their supplicant handmaidens in the media sprang into action and created a McCain illegal campaign contribution "scandal". The Washington Post published an inaccurate allegation and then retracted not a day later, at the risk of looking stupid. They are jeopardizing the little credibility that they have left. ....a Washington Post story detailing some suspicious looking contributions to the McCain campaign bundled by Harry Sargeant III. Shortly after posting, a correction appeared in the original report, as follows: An earlier version of this story about campaign donations that Florida businessman Harry Sargeant III raised for Sen. John McCain, former New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani and Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton incorrectly identified three individuals as being among the donors Sargeant solicited on behalf of McCain. Those donors -- Rite Aid manager Ibrahim Marabeh, and lounge owners Nadia and Shawn Abdalla -- wrote checks to Giuliani and Clinton, not McCain. Also, the first name of Faisal Abdullah, a McCain donor, was misspelled in some versions of the story (noted by Amanda Carpenter). So here an intrepid blogger finds a keg of dynamite of dirty dollar donations to Obama and what does the media do? They ignore it. And when forced to confront it by the sheer newsworthiness of the story, what happens? They go after McCain. They punish McCain. And that is meant to be a lesson to all of us, Whatever you find, whatever you discover about the Candidate of Mystery, they will blow it back in your face. And they did. Almost immediately. The irony and the upshot of all this. John McCain is reviewing contributions. Ain't that a kick in the head. I can tell him he needn't bother. Been there, done that. Nothing to see, keep moving. Obama's out there raising millions, some in illegal donations and the Washington Post jumps on McCain for a $50k, which hasn't been shown to be illegal, but merely "inappropriate." The left and their handmaidens, the mani stream media, were so quick to deflect this hit, it seems we have hit a raw nerve. I intend to keep digging. Stay tuned.,

UPDATE: Told you so: Monitors say McCain did not violate finance laws Guardian hat tip Van WASHINGTON (AP) - Republican presidential hopeful John McCain won a round against Democrats on Thursday when the Federal Election Commission rejected their contention that he violated campaign finance laws during the GOP primary. The FEC's draft opinion affirms McCain's right to bypass the public financing system and the strict spending limits that come with it. That was a rejection of the Democratic National Committee's complaint asserting that McCain's campaign had wrongly received loans based on his participation in public financing before later withdrawing from that system.

To the Best of Obama's Ability


Obama said he would gather the best and brightest, the best and the brightest what? Fixers and creative racketeering accountants? The campaign is required by LAW to collect employer/occupation information from donors. That might help in that annoying requirement to verify that a donor is actually legitimate. The Obama for America campaign wrote a letter to the FEC back in October of 2007 stating that they trying their best! See the letter. In the meantime, they have submitted over 25,000 individual donations that do not include that individuals employer. There is no record of a report supplying the employer names in follow up compliance required by law. Theyll try harder next time. Theyve just been failing to do it since January, 2007, the earliest date of a donation without employer.

Obama Contributions: Moving On MoveOn's Money

Isn't Obama pushing the 527 limitations on coordination with a campaign which they are not allowed to do by law? Obama paid MoveOn credit card fees of $18,000 because they processed campaign contributions for the Obama campaign. When did MoveOn become a bank or a finance company? Was Obama REIMBURSING MoveOn for their cost to process contributions for the Obama campaign? Why would Obama do this unless MoveOn was giving the contributions to his campaign? They cannot legally give money to Obama. It appears they did. MoveOn.org spent 1.5 million setting up Obama's facebook page- Cost me nothing to set up mine---See attached FEC info. UPDATE: CORRECTION SEE BELOW(not for set up, but for ads) Download 2008iedetail.xls (hat tip to Cathy and Laura, super sleuths, great Americans) Barack has been accused of: Contributions-Excessive; Contributions-Prohibited; Electioneering in the 2006 election in the case of CITIZENS FOR GIANNOULIAN aka GIANNOULIAS FOR TREASURER UPDATE: American Thinker: Soros, Obama, and the Millionaires Exception (hat tip Cathy) Because Obama was running against Blair Hull in the primary and then Jack Ryan in the general (both multi-millionaires), Obama could, and did, receive especially large donations from individuals, to so-called "millionaires exception." Normally individuals are limited to giving $2300 to candidates in federal elections, but when candidates are running against millionaires, these limits are lifted and candidates are allowed to receive up to $12,000 from a single individual. Soros and his family gave Barack Obama $60,000. This does not include money that Soros was able to funnel to so-called 527 groups (Moveon.org, for example) that have also been politically active; nor does it include money that Soros was able to raise from tapping a network of friends, business associates, and employees. After taking advantage of the special freedom to raise large amounts of money from influential individuals, and as the campaigns entered their closing rounds, news was leaked to media outlets that both Hull and Ryan had personal scandals associated with them. The release of this news devastated both of their campaigns, leading to an easy run to victory for Obama in the primary and then in the general election. The New York Times Magazine revealed earlier in the year that David Axelrod, Obama's chief political and media adviser, may well have been behind the leak of the story that doomed the Hull candidacy as the primary reached its home stretch. Axelrod is known for operating in this gray area, part idealist, part hired muscle. It is difficult to discuss Axelrod in certain circles in Chicago without the matter of the Blair Hull divorce papers coming up. As the 2004 Senate primary neared, it was clear that it was a contest between two people: the millionaire liberal, Hull, who was leading in the polls, and Obama, who had built an impressive grass-roots campaign. About a month before the vote, The Chicago Tribune revealed, near the bottom of a long profile of Hull, that during a divorce proceeding, Hull's second wife filed for an order of protection. In the following few days, the matter erupted into a full-fledged scandal that ended up destroying the Hull campaign and handing Obama an easy primary victory. The Tribune reporter who wrote the original piece later acknowledged in print that the Obama camp had "worked aggressively behind the scenes" to push the story. But there are those in Chicago who believe that Axelrod had an even more significant role - that he leaked the initial story. They note that before signing on with Obama, Axelrod interviewed with Hull. They also point out that Obama's TV ad campaign started at almost the same time. Axelrod swears up and down that "we had nothing to do with it" and that the campaign's television ad schedule was long planned. "An aura grows up around you, and people assume everything emanates from you," he told me. UPDATE: Cathy sent this for clarification: About MoveOn.org Political Action MoveOn.org Political Action, one of the largest Political Action Committees in the country, brings real Americans into politics to fight for a more progressive America and elect progressive candidates. It conducts major campaigns, from its work to protect the Supreme Court from a hard-right justice to its campaign to defeat the right wing and elect moderates and progressives in 2008. But in contrast to most PACs, which funnel industry contributions to candidates in exchange for access, MoveOn.org Political Action brings hundreds of thousands of small donors together to elect candidates who will represent the American people. With one secure online credit card transaction, you can immediately make contributions to several campaigns. All contributions go to the individual campaigns in the amounts you specify. MoveOn.org Political Action takes care of all the required FEC paperwork by transmitting necessary contributor information to each campaign. Because its a federal PAC, MoveOn.org Political Action cant accept donations greater than $5,000. And in fact, MoveOn.org Political Action is mostly funded by people who give less than $100 folks who dont have a lot of money but want to see a change. Through 2004, MoveOn.org Political Action raised approximately $11 million for 81 candidates from over 300,000 donors. In 2005, MoveOn.org Political Action grew to 3.2 million members and 125,000 members contributed $9 million to progressive candidates and campaigns (average donation: $45). UPDATE CORRECTION:sLIMGUY ADVISED: From just a quick glance that wasn't for a facebook site but for reimbursement of advertisements on facebook that were done by moveon. I don't have a facebook account so I don't know what the ads were saying that they were serving up. So technically it wasn't for creation of a site but spreading the word. Similar to a google adsense buy which they also did. [...] Another questionable set of line items shows BHO giving money to something called "Republican Majority Campaign" But I don't know the legal end ..not a lawyer but for BHO to give moveon money to run a moveon ad is really strange in a mutual backscratch circle kind of way. It is like his campaign getting an issue ad out there without it being direct from them. Would have to figure out what the ad content was and did it advocate BHO or a position he

OSAMA FOR OBAMA! THIRD "PALESTINIAN" BROTHER/DONOR EXPOSED! "GAZAN" CONTRIBUTIONS FLAGGED BY FEC, OBAMA NEVER REPORTED
A third brother has emerged from the Palestinian donation cache for Obama. His name is OSAMA! I previously broke the story of Monir and Hosam Edwan. There is a third brother:

Osama. Osama Edwan -- another brother from Gaza. Two donations, both dated 11-10-2007, here and here. Not only did Obama not report this jihad cash to the FEC, despite what they've claimed, the "Pali" brothers have not received their jihad cash back. In digging deeper into the illegal foreign campaign contributions from Palestinians, Cathy came across these FEC letters. Obama knew these contributions were illegal and "Palestinian." He didn't report them. He took a page from his days as a "community organizer" for the most corrupt political machine in America. It's what they do. Bringing the worst in American politics to the national level. It seems the FEC actually did their job. But the chosen One-bama is special and above the law....... he is a citizen of the world.

Obamas campaign filed their 10/01/07 thru 12/31/07 Year End report with the FEC on 1/31/08. On 4/15/08 the FEC sent a letter requesting additional information for 36 contributors the Obama campaign had submitted. There is an attachment to this letter with the names, dates and amounts. On this attachment, 7 of Hosam Edwans contributions/transactions are questioned (even though there are 10 transactions) and only 1 of Monir Edwans contributions is questioned (even though there were 22 contributions/transactions). The response date to this letter is May 15, 2008. Obamas campaign filed an Amended 10/01/07 thru 12/31/07 Year End report on 5/15/08. On 7/30/08 the FEC sent another letter requesting additional information for SIXTEEN PAGES of questionable contributions/transactions. The time period covered in the amended report is the same as the first report. Now there are many more questions. Included in the questions this time are contributions/transactions for Monir Edwan, this includes the same contribution in the earlier report plus twenty more for Monir Edwan.

This can only mean that the Obama campaign failed to report the contributions of Monir Edwan in the first report. He knew. There's another red flag in the FEC letter of July 30, 2008. They advise, It appears that several transactions on Schedule(s) A supporting line(s) 17(a) of your report disclose the original contribution of an individual more than once. If this is true, the Obama campaign is inflating the total of the contributions that they have received. This could have a negative impact on additional fund raising if known by the general public. Attachments: FEC Letter 4/15/08; FEC Letter 7/30/08 and Monir & Hosam Edwan detail contributions worksheet (notations added referencing FEC requests for additional information).

OBAMA'S FOREIGN DONATIONS: THE GLOBAL CANDIDATE FROM IRAN TO BRAZIL TO SOROS
More questions are are raised than answered in the further investigation of Obama's foreign donations.(hat tip Cathy) Iranian operative Farah Alaghband lives in London and is chairman of The Balli Group. Download alaghbandfarah.pdf UPDATED: Farah Alaghband is the wife of Hassan Alaghband, who is brother of the chairman of Balli group which has continually violated the sanctions against Iran in the futile effort to halt its nuclear enrichment program. The Commerce Departments Bureau of Industry & Security is training its sights on the British steel trading giant Balli Group. Property of the Alaghband family of Iranian origin, Balli has been accused of leasing airliners to Tehran. But it is probably also being penalized for its key part in maintaining tight commercial and diplomatic ties between Iran and the West. How Three Boeing Airliners Ended Up in Iran. Even though one of the Balli Group's leading offices is in Houston, the company which boasts annual sales of over USD 1 billion, has been banned from exporting or helping to export American goods subject to restrictions until September 18 of this year. The Temporary Denial Order slapped on it by the BIS came on the heels of several operations in recent years by one of its affiliates, Balli Aviation. When United Airlines was placed under Chapter 11 in 2002, Balli Aviation bought three aging Boeing 747 airliners from the company (all three entered service in 1993). The aircraft were subsequently leased to another affiliate of the Balli Group, Blue Sky Airways, which began operating last year in Tehran to carry Iranian passengers to South East Asia and Mecca. (M0re here) The Temporary Denial Order imposed by the US Department of Commerce on a number of companies including Balli Group plc does not relate to arms but to passenger airplanes.

. The chairman of Balli, Vahid Alaghband,[see correction below] whose personal fortune has been estimated at GBP 125 million, is one of the co-founders of the Iran Heritage Foundation that devotes itself to promoting Irans cultural heritage. Each year the Foundation throws a Nouroz Gala for the Persian community living in exile in London. Elsewhere, the Alaghband family figures among contributors to the PARSA Community Foundation which specializes in bankrolling projects carried out by Iranians or members of the Persian diaspora. Indeed, the PARSA Community Foundation donated a grant to the National Iranian American Council, an organization set up in 2002 to push in Washington for the restoration of diplomatic relations between the United States and Washington.The NIAC, which has won the backing of George Soros Open Society Institute, endeavors to tone down the saber-rattling rhetoric of numerous neo-conservative think tanks in the U.S., among them the Committee on Present Danger and the Foundation for Democracy in Iran. UPDATE CORRECTION: Ken Timmerman advised me that Farah Alaghband is NOT the chairman of Balli Group. She (for Farah is a she, not a he) is the wife of Hassan Alaghband, who is brother of the chairman of Balli. Balli Group is run by the three Alaghband brothers Vahid, Hassan, and Nasser. Vahid is the oldest and the chairman. Farah is a U.S. Citizen, both she and her husband (who is a U.S. Citizen) were educated in the U.S., as is their daughter. For more on their motives read Timmerman's piece (April /08): Pro-Iran Group Wants Iran Diplomacy OT but related: FUNDRAISING FOR OBAMA- A group of politically engaged Afro-Brazilians want to find an Obama of their own. Watch this Reuters promo piece about fund raising for Oabam in Brazil. NUTS! With two thousand stickers, uncountable pamphlets, posters and an email address, the group of Brazilian Obama supporters have managed to raise $1,800 for Obama's campaign. Deborah Lutterbeck reports. SOUNDBITE: Ivan Rodrigues, saying (Portuguese): "What is this Brazil I live in? A Brazil that recognizes the rich in a way and the poor in another, the blacks in a way, the Indians in another, a Brazil that judges bankers in a way, and that judges the citizens who work every day in another way. So I believe the Brazilian Obama will understand people's needs and listen to this cry which lies inside each one of us." Is any of this legal? Or is this more change we can't believe in?

OBAMA'S DONATION OBAMANATION: Saputra, Anton , INDONESIA


In a previous post, we were trying to make sense out of "CENTS" in the foreign donation docs. Obamas campaign donation pages are rife with donations that end in CENT. Thousands of them. Odd numbers all. Cathy and I have gone through thousands and thousands of foreign donations that end in cents (as in dollars and cents) for Obama and there were NONE for McCain. More evidence of foreign contributors, since Americans living overseas would almost uniformly be able to contribute dollars. The donations dont show up on the FEC search either by individual or by the candidate. If you scroll through the pages of the donations alphabetically for Obama, the dollar amounts are what youd expect legitimate donations to look like. i.e., $250, $500, $1000, $2300but when you look at the database of transactions it is nothing like that. You get $74.37, $42.95, $116.38, $29.70like that (those are actual examples). Clearly this is what you would get if you converted a foreign currency into dollars, e.g., 50 Euros would be roughly $ 77.12 Download SampleIndividualsodddollarandcents.pdf Let's pull yet another one of the foreign donors that end in a bizarre .32 cents. Why is this guy giving to Obama? From Indonesia .... where Obama grew up and attended Koranic classes.

"PALESTINIAN" CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTION: OBAMA SHIPPED TEE SHIRTS TO GAZA?


The Washington Wire has the details of the latest cover-up coming in the Obama campaign donation scandal . Obama claims it's all been a mix up. Plausible deniability? Not where there's a smoking gun, in Gaza no less. Monir Edwan (identified here) claimed he sold the T-shirts in Gaza for around $9 and that a profit was made. "Some young men even bought the T-shirts for 60 shekel ($17.29), which is a lot to spend in Gaza on a T-shirt, but that is how much Gazans like Obama," Edwan claimed. Obama campaign shipped shirts to Gaza? Shipping overseas is vastly different than the state next door. How did the Edwan brothers get the tee shirts if Obama sent them to Georgia? Who from the campaign sent the tee shirts to Gaza? Obama is going to need a couple of days to come up with the next lie. Obama Camp Routed Out Illegal Donations from Palestinians Washington Wire (hat tip Cathy) Obama campaign officials said a trio of Palestinian brothers in the Middle East attempted last year to make $33,000 in illegal donations to the campaign via the internet. The brothers sought to buy Obama for President T-shirts in some 97 attempts, 32 of which were initially successful. They wrongly identified themselves as American citizens, campaign officials said, and listed their address as GA, the abbreviation for Georgia, when in fact they live in a refugee camp in Gaza, a rump city-state between Israel and Egypt that is under the control of Hamas. The donations came in between Sept. 20 and Dec. 6 and virtually all of the money, about $33,500, was returned by December 6. But the refunds werent reported to the Federal Election Commission due to a technical error, campaign officials said. The remaining $2,500 was refunded Monday. The refunds will all be reflected shortly in an amended report. New controls to prevent such attempts are now in place, the campaign said. This story is unnerving Obama and his pied piping media. They are running scared. They are desperately trying to find any donation dirt on McCain but it's not there. Trust me I have been checking. The media is publishing inaccurate innuendo and rumor and then retracts not a day later. at the risk of looking stupid. They are jeopardizing the little cred they have left. GO HERE NOW I have been pursuing this story since mid July an I will tell you Obama's donation trail is as dirty Chicago politics. This is the left's feeble attempt to head the trouble off at the pass. No way. UPDATE: Now KOS is blaming WND for the "Palestinian" illegal donation story, calling it a set-up. How funny is that? I broke that story and Aaron Klein picked it up. Why isn't KOS accusing me of being Mossad. "It could be true that [donations] were made, but as a part of a deliberate set-up to make Obama look bad. ... Aaron Klein reports from the Israel for WND. ... Again, obviously if an actual illegal donation was actually made it should be returned, but it would be interesting to find out who really made it and why," reads an article on the Daily Kos site. Wow. KOS is a real Jew hater, eh? "By the way, Aaron Klein is clearly an [sic] conservative anti-Obama reporter for the ultra-right-wing WorldNetDaily," the site contends. In response, WND editor and publisher Joseph Farah commended the Daily Kos team for "their imagination in suggesting WND actually set up the Palestinian donations to the Obama campaign."

"That's a good one! It was an elaborate sting operation by an independent news source not feeding at the Obama media trough, says Daily Kos. Talk about your twisted, convoluted conspiracy tales. Maybe WND was also behind the forged Obama birth certificate published by Daily Kos. "Making up these wacky stories shows the desperate lengths Daily Kos will go to deny their beloved candidate would do anything wrong," Farah added. Kill the messenger. Leftist tactics 101. My first story on Obama's bizarre and illegal activity posted July 19th on overseas contributions: Who is Jeanne McCurdy? 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. 500k donated by "not employed" people (overseas) On July 23rd we addressed Obama's bundling - that got Obama's corruption eruption team into high gear. My primary issue in that post concerns bundling, the aggregation of small individual contributions, submitted for verification for legality by the Obama campaign to the F.E.C. John and I touched on this issue in my previous post, Obama's Foreign Contributions: Who is Jeanne McCurdy, in which the bundling tactics of an Obama fund raiser named Jeanne McCurdy was disclosed. We documented almost $800 worth of campaign contributions which simply cannot be documented by anybody as to where they came from, or from whom, or whether the persons were American citizens or perhaps from person with interests violently opposed to American interests. A Rebecca Kurth contributed $3,137.38 to the Obama Campaign in 112 donations, including 34 separate donations recorded on 30-April-2008. The history of anonymous donors from April of 2008, over just 3 pages of F.E.C. records. In contributions from $1 to $250 --over $800 came into the Obama coffers completely without attribution, and in a manner in which the sources can never be verified. The F.E.C. did absolutely nothing to regulate this.

Gazans Deny Obama Returned their JIhad Dough: No Honor Among Thieves
Now this is rich. I thought there was honor among thieves. Apparently not. Aaron Klein, in an update to the story I broke last week about Obama receiving contributions from Gaza, is reporting that despite Obama's claims that he just returned the money, The "Paelstinians" decry lie! Can you spell blackmail? I wonder what it's going to cost Obama, you know the Gazans don't play fair. Obama said new controls are in place to prevent any similar attempts in the future. New controls? Like what? Shutting down anti- Obama sites? Arabs deny Obama camp returned illegal donations WND WND Candidate's staffers insist Gaza brothers refunded, but men say, 'We did not receive any money back' Sen. Obama's campaign contends it returned $33,500 in illegal contributions from Palestinians in Hamas-controlled Gaza, but the donors told WND today they have not received any money. The Wall Street Journal reported it spoke to Obama officials who said the donations from three Palestinian brothers were received between Sept. 20 and Dec. 6 last year, and virtually all of the money was returned by Dec. 6. The campaign said, however, the refunds were not reported to the Federal Election Commission due to a technical error. The Obama camp insisted the remaining $2,500 was refunded Monday and all of the refunds will be reflected soon in an amended report. The campaign said new controls are in place to prevent any similar attempts in the future. But WND asked two of the brothers Monir and Hasam Edwan to respond to the campaign's claims. "No, we did not receive any money

back from the Obama campaign at any time," said Monir Edwan.

Last week, the blog Atlas Shrugs outlined the series of donations made last year by Monir Edwan and Hosam Edwan, totaling $29,521.54. A third brother, Yousef, reportedly gave the campaign about $4,000.

Poll: AMERICANS DISGUSTED WITH OBAMA'S JIHAD CONTRIBUTIONS


ATLAS BREAKS THE STORY OF OBAMA'S GAZAN CONTRIBUTIONS!

Atlas Shrugs: Obama's Contributions: Foreign and Domestic

Page 39 of 46

WND is running a poll on the story Atlas broke on Obama's jihad contributions from Gaza. The majority of the folks are disgusted by it and rightly so.
It speaks volumes about the kind of support he has 31% (699)

It's an outrage that should spark a probe of all of Obama's fundraising

30% (692)

Criminal charges should be the result

Hamas endorsed Obama. The Edwans are a large clan that include top Hamas supporters. Speaking to WND, the two brothers praised Obama and admitted giving the money online to his campaign. They said they are not U.S. citizens or green card holders but are citizens of "Palestine." The Edwans denied they are affiliated with Hamas. Palestinian sources in Gaza confirmed the Edwans in question are secular, but could not say whether they supported Hamas. I have previously posted on the illegal and bizarre donations of Obama's "foreign" contributions here. Obama took in 500, ooo donated by "not employed" people abroad.

WND RUNS MY OBAMA GAZA CONTRIBUTION EXCLUSIVE


Aaron Klein over at WND picked up on the story I broke here: Obama's Gaza Contributions on July 31: Although election donor data indicate Georgia, USA here: Donation Details: Adwan, Monir | Rafah, Georgia. There ain't no such place in the land of Georgia peaches. It's a Gaza refugee camp. The file attached has both Monir & Hosam Edwan. Both from Rafah. Both over allowed spending limit. Here is the file: Download EdwanDetail.xls. It details Edwans's contributions total $24,321.41.The contributions are all to Obama the candidate. Different files for the party or committees. Cathy's source of the data is from the FEC site. Presidential download file zip. Named ALL. Dated 6/30. She went back to find it today so I could be sure it was legit. Here is the link Unzipped it is the basis for everything she submitted. How much money was raised from the phone banks in Gaza (see video)? Here's an excerpt of the WND article: Money quote: :"My brother Hosam and I knew that Obama will be a big hit even before he became a candidate. We knew the guy would be a celebrity in Gaza so we decided to invest the amount of $29,000 to buy Obama T-shirts from his website and sell them in Gaza," Monir Edwan told WND, speaking by cell phone from Gaza". Palestinians donate $29,500 to Obama Gazan brothers' illegal contributions listed in government election filings Aaron Klein JERUSALEM Palestinian brothers inside the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip are listed in government election filings as having donated $29,521.54 to Sen. Barack Obama's campaign. The donations would violate election laws, including prohibitions on receiving donations from foreigners and guidelines against accepting more than $2,300 from one individual during a single election, Bob Biersack, a spokesman for the Federal Election Commission, told WND in response to a query.

Atlas Shrugs: Obama's Contributions: Foreign and Domestic

Page 40 of 46

The contributions also raise numerous questions about the Obama campaign's lax online donation form, which apparently allows for the possibility of foreign contributions. Last week, the Atlas Shrugs blog outlined a series of donations in 2007 made to Obama's campaign from two individuals, Monir Edwan and Hosam Edwan, totaling $29,521.54. In an online form on Obama's campaign site, the Edwans listed their street as "Tal Esaltan," which they wrote was located in "Rafah, GA." Rafah is not a city in Georgia. The Atlas blog immediately raised concerns that the money may have been donated from the Gaza Strip town of Rafah. The Edwans' donations are listed in both FEC filings and other election filing sites, such as CampaignMoney and donordata.org. UPDATE: Stop the ACLU is covering it as well. UPDATE: TINBH in the comment section The story is now being featured live (8 pm - eastern) on WMAL 630 (DC area) as a "breaking news" story. Also according to WMAL 630 - Reuters has picked it up and 630 also reports that ABC is vetting the story at this time. WMAL 630 -just credited "Atlas Shrugs" for original story break.

Obama's Fishy "Personal" Fund Raising Pages


Barack Obama's records are either incredibly shabby or purposely deceptive. Many My BHO members (55,000 according to the website) have their own fund raising pages: (hat tip Cathy) An anonymous reader posited this: Since I have the user number for the argument simply by viewing the page and what they describe in their own page source as 'simple page security simple report' and the script to call to the donation routine it opens it up to all sorts of things. Now lets take this as a what if. You are a big pocket donor and want to shove funds in via the under 200 donation doorway which does not get itemized in the FEC reports How you play it Write a script to query All the donor pages like the ones in you post Determine unfunded amount necessary to reach goal for each volunteer Using a debit/credit/prepaid whatever card anonymously push money in via the donor routine via a remote procedure call using the page user number as an argument for the donation She / he sees a report to think they 'convinced' people to donate and feel validated and oh so happy and lights a candle on their personal shrine at home. Lots of people (shills really) have full thermometers or even more for super duper friends and all is well in the world. If you need more places to shill money through...no problem ...fake a donate via me page.... Wash, rinse, repeat as necessary. Since you are signing up voters in 17 states, you have names and addresses to use for donor names etc via prepaid cards and what are the odds they will be a friend to a mini bundler who would send them a thank you note? So Joe Blow from Florida does a prepaid card donation via somebody from Oregon and they don't know each other from Adam. Joe has no way to check neither does Oregon person. Check out any of the stories on the web about the field people "obama fellows" out there registering...they feed all the data into the computer at the end of the day. The important bottom line here is there is zero linkage between the page donations from the website and the donations of that person to the FEC in their name. FEC stuff is their own cash they gave to Obama, not money raised on the site.

Student, Morad Tabbicca from Ghana has a keen interest in politics and admires Barack Obama. His fundraising goal is below:

Morad seems to be doing it right. There is no record of a contribution directly from him to BHO in a search of the FEC website or in the FEC download of BHOs individual contributors file. So, one is led to believe that the 8 people contributing $485 did that under their own names. However, Christine Wakim is a puzzler. She set a goal of $500 but has raised a total of $810 from 9 people (the number 9 is important as youll see) according to her personal fundraising page at My BHO Christine's Personal Fundraising Page. A search of the FEC website shows that Christine has three contributions totaling $650. But WAITthe FEC website counts her 3/18/08 $200 contribution TWICE!

Going back to the downloaded Obama FEC database, Christine has NINE individual transactions that total $939.70. The 3/18 and 5/18 contributions are on this list, but another 7 are on the list that are NOT on the query. Here's the back up: Download WakimChristine.pdf Receipt #28931993883 FEC Search 28931993883 shows that Christine donated $1,026.04 FOR THE ELECTION CYCLE-TO-DATE! So, which is it? $650, $810, $939.70 or $1,026.04?

And then there are Obama's Gibberish Donors ....


Ah yes, we must not neglect the gibberish Obama donors. Here we have: Download GibberishDonors.zip (hat tip Cathy) The name: Hbkjb, jkbkj City: Jkbjnj Works for: Kuman Bank (doesn't exist) Occupation: Balanon Jalalan Amount: $1,077.23 Date: 10/28/07 Gibberish must be challenged! Comparing McCain to Obama: McCain's donors all give in even dollar amounts. Many of Obama's donors give in odd amounts with pennies. Was there a particular donor drive asking for odd amounts? McCain's records are nothing like Obama's, though. McCain's are so clean. Julia Gorin relayed a funny (/not) story two months ago, her husbands co-worker wanted to see what would happen if he tried giving a contribution to the obama campaign via a credit card. He used his Macys card. The system accepted it. He tried the same with McCains campaign, and the transaction wouldnt go through. Now, obviously, down the line, the Obama transaction would fail as well, but this goes to show that there is no safety system in placeitll just accept any and all $$$, which helps explain how his campaign raised so much more money than everyone elses.

Here's the file: Download DoodadDetail.xls (Hat tip Cathy - she's the bomb) The # of transactions = 1,044 The $ contributed = $10,780.00 This Doodad character works for FDGFDGF and occupation is DFGFDG ALSO works for LOVING and occupation is YOU ALSO works for VCX and occupation is VCVC UPDATE Deb sent me this radio clip comes from the 30 July 2008 BTR broadcast of NO WE WONT PUMA radio -- between the 50-60 minute mark. Speakers are Riverdaughter (asking for info) and Nancy A (answering). Listen here: Download 20080730 Listened to the NO WE WONT (the PUMAs) BTR radio show last night, and they interviewed Mary A. (No Quarter writer) about Obama's connections to ACORN. Very damning stuff, and she is continuing to research it. The particular thing I want to mention to you is someone asked Mary A. about the bundling of contributions. Mary A. discussed this for a few minutes, but she did not say anything was proven, but it is being looked into. The rumor is someone was at an Obama headquarters (not sure where), and observed a series of homeless people going into the headquarters and emerging later and heading straight for a public library. The suspicion is these homeless people are being given $50 ATM cards and instructed to donate $40 of it to Obama's campaign USING A NAME SUPPLIED TO THEM, and then allowed to keep $10 of the money for themselves. The people looking into it are connecting the activity with several small donations being made under the same name on the same day. This sounds like what you're looking into with the overseas contributions.

Obama, Who is Dr. Okechukwu Dimkpa?


I attempted to call the good doctor Okechukwu Dimpka in both Salisbury and 500 Academy Street South Ahoskie, NC 27910 North Carolina to ask him about his complicated election donations. There is no such person.

Obama's Gazan Contributions

Atlas reader Cathy and others have been indispensable in helping to track Obama's very questionable campaign donations. A number of Atlas readers have been helping me go through thousands upon thousands of docs relating to Obama's bizarre illegal activity, foreign and domestic. The latest jawdropper: there is a large contributor in the 'G's'. Largest. Name is Monir Edwan. City is Rafah and the State is GA. You'd think GA is for Georgia. IT'S NOT! There is no Rafah, Georgia. It's Rafah, GAZA. Although election donor data indicate Georgia, USA. File here: Donation Details: Adwan, Monir | Rafah, Georgia. There ain't no such place in the land of Georgia peaches. It's a Gaza refugee camp. The file attached has both Monir & Hosam Edwan. Both from Rafah. Both over the allowed spending limit. Here is the file: Download EdwanDetail.xls. It details Edwan's contributions, totaling $24,321.41. The contributions are all to Obama the candidate. Different files for the party or committees. Our source of the data is from the FEC site. Presidential download file zip. Named ALL. Dated 6/30. Here is the link unzipped. It is the basis for everything submitted. Thanks, Cathy! How much money was raised from the phone banks in Gaza (see video)? More on Obama's Foreign Contributions. UPDATE: First off, I will be filing a complaint with the FEC - either alone or through an organization. Cathy found more detail: There's more: Note these receipts are not inclusive of all the information in the FEC detail file. In October of 2007: Hosam receipt dated 10/30/07 is for $956.52 (general contribution) his Election Cycle total as of this date is $5,387.13. On the database this amount is redirected (where is not known), but his total is still above allowed amounts (IF HE'S AMERICAN). Monir has two receipts. One dated 10/27/07 for $1,290.63 (primary - this is in the FEC file), the second dated 10/30/07 for $1,671.85 (primary - this is in the FEC file). The total on the receipt for Election Cycle is $9,598.54 (above allowed). NOTE THE TOTAL HE GAVE JUST ON 10/30/07, ACCORDING TO THE FEC FILE, IS $7,435.81. The phone banks were buzzing?

Obama's Anonymous Foreign Donors and Other Bizarre Illegal Activity


The treasurer must check committee records regularly to make sure that successive contributions from one contributor remain within the limits. $50 Limit on Anonymous Contributions An anonymous contribution is limited to $50. Any amount in excess of $50 may not be used for federal election purposes. 110.4(c)(3). I have been pouring over docs from Obama's foreign contributions and it's rotten. As I pointed out here, there are way too many overseas contributions and I find it hard to believe they are all American citizens. $500,000 came into the campaign via not employed people. How does the FEC monitor that? Ranging in value from 75 cents to $250 (well over the anonymous limit) there are 81 donations from all the world (and this is just in the document I have been analyzing). It is rather suspicious that all 81 anonymous donations are devoid of any identification information. My file on anonymous donations: Download Atlas-AllAnnonymous.pdf For example, there are two donations on sequential on the 13th and 14th of February of $250 $250 by anonymous country "information requested" no employer no occupation. Again, over the maximum allowed for anonymous contributions. Mind this list is not complete. I have no idea how much more there is. If one lists by city, there is $223,000 from "information requested" (meaning no info) city. Helloooooooooooo. These are some big donations. Download AtlasAllindividualdonations.pdf Single Donors from overseas that exceed the legal limit: [UPDATE CORRECTION -$4,600 is the legal limit--$2,300 for primary, $2,300 for general.] Single amounts from $4,600 from Margaret Vento (homemaker) on the 8th of June 2007 her country and state was unidentified. [Can she donate $4,600 to the primary race?] There 5 donations of $4,600. There are three individuals Philip Ryan who works for Credit Suisse, London and he gave four separate donations: On 31st of March 2007, he gave $2,300. Then on the 29th of September he gave $2,300 which was then "given back" and on the same day gave he gave $4,600.[Again, this esceeds the primary limit] Philip Ryan of London gave of total of $6,900 in the year 2007.

The next bizarre donor is Richard Baumann (UK lawyer) has a total of 29, yes folks, 29 transactions. Seven of which are negative. And the balance of which are of course positive. The total of $4,850 over the legal number. Strangely enough, the all date January, February, May of '08. They range from $25 to $2,125. What a frickin mess. How much money was raised from the phone banks in Gaza (see video)? From the FEC website. The ban on political contributions and expenditures by foreign nationals was first enacted in 1966 as part of the amendments to the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA), an internal security statute. The goal of the FARA was to minimize foreign intervention in U.S. elections by establishing a series of limitations on foreign nationals. These included registration requirements for the agents of foreign principals and a general prohibition on political contributions by foreign nationals. In 1974, the prohibition was incorporated into the Federal Election Campaign Act (the FECA), giving the Federal Election Commission (FEC) jurisdiction over its enforcement and interpretation (more here) During the current election cycle, individuals may contribute up to $2,300 per election to Federal candidates. Contributions of cash which exceed $100 from one person are prohibited. If a committee receives a cash contribution exceeding $100, it must promptly return the excess amount to the contributor. If an anonymous cash contribution over $50 is received, the amount in excess of $50 must be used for some purpose unrelated to federal elections. Anonymous donors may not exceed $50 Contributions made by one person in the name of another are prohibited. No person may knowingly permit the use of his or her name to effect such a contribution. It is also prohibited to knowingly assist someone in making or to accept a contribution in the name of another. It is also unlawful to knowingly permit the use of one's name to effect a contribution in the name of another or to help someone make or accept such a contribution. ILLEGAL ACTIVITY The treasurer of a committee is responsible for ensuring that all contributions are lawful. 11 CFR 103.3(b). If the treasurer has reason to suspect that a contribution prohibited, he or she must, within 10 days of receiving the contribution, either return the contribution to the donor or deposit the contribution. 11 CFR 103.3(a).

Preliminary Report - Strategic Analysis Obama Presidential Campaign Finance


Obama spent $738,812,857 to get into the White House and 46% of the total money raised for all candidates in the 2008 Presidential Election. This compares to three hundred and ten million spend by John McCain. The top spender of the 2004 election was George W. Bush at $374.7 million followed by John Kerry at $348.4 million. In 2000 George W. Bush spent $193.9 million and Al Gore spend $ 133.1 million. 1996 expenditures were $108.5 million by Clinton and $110.2 million by Dole. Getting into the White House is big business, where the money comes from determines favor.

The participating banks are generally owned by the Vatican through the Rothschilds.

The big question on most peoples mind would probably be Why is the Vatican funding an outspoken Muslim like Obama? The Answer is simple, the Vatican has been directly or indirectly behind almost all the wars, depressions and holocausts since the Roman Empire The Founders who were Masons considered the Vatican as their arch enemy. The Society of Jesus or Jesuits, otherwise known as the Black Popes are the Catholic Mafia. Extracts a Jesuit Oath of Office filed in the library of Congress http://www.libertyforlife.com/religion/jesuit_oath_of_office.htm: "I do further declare that I will help, assist and advise all or any of his holiness agents, in any place where I should be in Switzerland, Germany, Holland or America, or in any other territory I shall come to, and do my utmost to extirpate the heretical Protestant or Masonic doctrines, and destroy all their pretended powers, legal or otherwise. ... I will, when opportunity presents, make and wage relentless war, secretly or openly, against all heretics, Protestants and Masons, as I am directed to do, to extirpate and exterminate them from the face of the whole earth, and that I will spare neither age, sex, nor condition, and that I will burn, hang, waste, boil, flay, strangle, bury alive, these infamous heretics, open up the stomachs and wombs of their women and crush their infants heads against the walls in order to annihilate their execrable race That when the same cannot be done openly, I will secretly use the poison cup, the strangulation cord, the steel of the poniard, or the leaden bullet, regardless of the honor, rank, dignity or authority of the persons whatever be their condition in life, either public or private, as I at any time may be directed to so do, by any agent of the Pope, or superior of the Brotherhood of the Holy Faith of the Society of Jesus." George Bush who claims to be a Mason is seen welcoming the Pope to the White House in the following picture. All the Founders who were Masons would not have hesitated to shoot both Bush and the chief pedophile cover-up champion for the Catholic Church, Pope Benedict.

Few Americans fully comprehend the Vaticans consistent desire to destroy the USA. Few have any idea of the Vaticans direct involvement with the Nazis and genocide around the world. The big question is whether Albert Pike the head of the Masons at the start of the Uncivil War was a Jesuit or a Mason. A must read: http://www.libertyforlife.com/nwo/albert_pike.htm

It should be noted that the conclusion of Pikes Plan is that the people will be obliged to rise up and destroy these destroyers of civilization, which would obviously include the Pope. The conclusion is somewhat contradictory to the overall plan which has effectively handed the USA and most of the world into the hands of the Pope and Old World Order.

The Vatican Bank: ISTITUTO PER LE OPERE DI RELIGIONE = INSTITUTE FOR THE RELIGION WORKS
The Institute for Works of Religion (Italian: Istituto per le Opere di Religione - IOR) commonly known as Vatican Bank was formed during World War 2 and is located inside the Vatican City. The Bank has been involved in numerous scandals including money laundering of drug dealer funds and Nazi war crime loot. IOR follows the typical extreme corruption found in the Roman Catholic Empire. It is run by a professional bank CEO who reports directly to a committee of cardinals, and ultimately to the Pope (or the Camerlengo of the Holy Roman Church during a sede vacante). Since its assets are not considered property of the Holy See, it is not overseen by the Prefecture for the Economic Affairs of the Holy See, The Institute was involved in a number of major criminal, political and financial scandals. In the 1980s, concerning the 1982 $3.5 billion collapse of Banco Ambrosiano, of which it was a major share-holder. The head of the Vatican Bank from 1971 to 1989, Archbishop Paul Marcinkus,was under consideration for indictment in 1982 in Italy as an accessory of the bankruptcy; however, he was never brought to trial due to the Italian courts' ruling that the priest, being a high-ranking prelate of the Vatican, had diplomatic immunity from prosecution. [3]

1. Origin
The Istituto per le Opere di Religione was founded on 27 June 1942 by Pope Pius XII. It absorbed the Amministrazione delle Opere di Religione (Administration of the Works of Religion), [4] which was in no sense a bank, having been established by Pope Leo XIII on 11 February 1887 to manage the much reduced funds at the disposal of the Pope after the complete loss of the Papal States in 1870; these funds were greatly increased as part of the settlement of the Roman Question by the Lateran Pacts of 1929. The purpose of the Istituto per le Opere di Religione is "to provide for the safekeeping and administration of movable and immovable property transferred to entrusted to it by physical or juridical persons and intended for works of religion or charity". [5] It is thus not a department of the Roman Curia, and is therefore not among the departments of this central administrative structure of the Roman Catholic Church. [6] Nor is it a central bank responsible for a country's monetary policy and for maintaining the stability of a currency and money supply. It is unlike a normal bank also in that any profit it makes does not go to shareholders, which in this case do not exist, but is used instead for religious and charitable purposes. [7]

2. Organization
According to the norms of its present statutes, which came into effect in 1990, the IOR is directed by a supervisory council and by an oversight commission of cardinals. As of 23 September 2009 the supervisory council is composed of [8] :

President: Ettore Gotti Tedeschi Vice-President: Ronaldo Hermann Schmitz Carl A. Anderson Giovanni De Censi Manuel Soto Serrano

3. Controversy
The Vatican Bank is said to be a successful and profitable bank. By the 1990s, the Bank had invested somewhere over US$10 billion in foreign companies. In 1968 Vatican authorities hired Michele Sindona as a financial advisor, despite Sindona's questionable past. It was Sindona who was chiefly responsible for the massive influx of money when he began laundering the Gambino crime family's heroin monies (taking a 50% cut) through a shell corporation "Mabusi". This laundering was accomplished with the help of another banker, Roberto Calvi, who managed the Banco Ambrosiano. Both Calvi and Sindona were members of the P2 Lodge. [9] -

P2 lodge was headed by Licio Gelli, and was implicated in numerous Italian crimes and mysteries, including the nationwide bribe scandal Tangentopoli, the collapse of the Vaticanaffiliated Banco Ambrosiano, and the murders of journalist Mino Pecorelli and banker Roberto Calvi. P2 came to light through the investigations into the collapse of Michele Sindona's financial empire. When searching Licio Gelli's villa, the police found a document called the "Plan for Democratic Rebirth", which called for a consolidation of the media, suppression of trade unions, and the rewriting of the Constitution. When Pope John Paul I became Pope in 1978 he was informed about the allegations of wrongdoing at the Vatican Bank, and instructed Jean-Marie Villot, Cardinal Secretary of State and head of the papal Curia, to investigate the matter thoroughly. Pope John Paul I died after only 33 days in office, leading to claims that he had been murdered as a result of discovering a scandal. Pope John Paul I is generally accepted to have died from natural causes, although some medical experts believe that he may have died from a pulmonary embolism or an adverse reaction to the medication that he was taking rather than from a heart attack as was stated in original press reports of his death.

3. 1. Banco Ambrosiano scandal


The Vatican Bank was Banco Ambrosiano's main share-holder. Father Paul Marcinkus, head of the Institute for Religious Works from 1971 to 1989, was indicted in Italy in 1982 as an accessory in the $3.5 billion collapse of Banco Ambrosiano, one of the major post-war financial scandals. Banco Ambrosiano was accused of laundering drug money for the Sicilian Mafia, which used Propaganda Due (aka "P2"), a mobbed up Masonic lodge, as an intermediary. P2 and its Worshipful Master, Licio Gelli, were also involved in financing right wing terror groups during the 1970s. As for Fr. Marcinkus, he would never come to trial in Italy, where courts ruled that he possessed diplomatic immunity. He lived in retirement in Sun City, Arizona (US) until his death on February 21, 2006. The Vatican Bank has denied having legal responsibility for the Ambrosiano's downfall but did acknowledge "moral involvement", and paid $241m (169m) to creditors. As of 2006, investigations are continuing concerning the murder of Ambrosiano's chairman, Roberto Calvi, which, according to Ernest Backes, former #3 of Clearstream, may have been linked to the death of Grard Soisson, who used to work for Clearstream, a "bank of banks" which practices financial clearing. According to recent wiretap information, however, Calvi's death was almost certainly decreed by the Cupola, the ruling council of the Sicilian Mafia, which had come to view Calvi as a liability since the bank's collapse.

3. 2. Other allegations
Several books, such as Unholy Trinity: How the Vatican's Nazi Networks Betrayed Western Intelligence to the Soviets, Genocide in Satellite Croatia 1941-1945 and The Vatican's Holocaust, which appeared during the 1980s and 1990s were highly critical of the Vatican Bank's historical relations with right-wing governments and especially with the collaborationist regime of the Independent State of Croatia during World War II. [10] [11] [12] Sources such as these

engendered initial defensive hostility and controversy, which centers on conclusions drawn from the documentation rather than the documents themselves. According to a 1998 report issued by the US State Department, the Nazi Croatian treasury was illicitly transferred to the Vatican Bank and other banks after the end of World War II [10] . For its part, the Vatican has repeatedly denied any Franciscan participation in Ustashi crimes or the disappearance of the Croatian Treasury, yet has refused to open its wartime records to substantiate its denial. On October 21, 1946, a Top Secret report from US Treasury Agent Emerson Bigelow (called "The Bigelow Report"), which was declassified in 1997, quoted a "reliable source in Italy" (who corroborated evidence already obtained by CIC intelligence officials of the Army) [13] , who alerted his superior that Croatian officials had sent 350 million confiscated Swiss francs (CHF) to the Vatican Bank "for safekeeping", a sum largely in the form of gold coins [13] . On the way some CHF150 million were allegedly seized by British authorities at the border between Austria and Switzerland, which brought the secret transfer into the open. "There is no basis in reality to the report", said Vatican spokesman Joaquin Navarro-Valls, as reported in Time magazine. [14] The Vatican Bank has been often accused of funding the Solidarity Polish trade-union as well as the Contras, managing US covert funds.

JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A.


JP Morgan inherited his business from George Peabody. George Peabody was an American nobody the Rothschilds hired to run their parties in England and then used as a cover to enter into the US. When JP Morgan recently died he only owned 7% of JP Morgan the primary owners are the bankers for the Vatican, the Rothchilds. On Sunday, June 18, 1815, Rothworth, a courier of Nathan Rothschild, head of the London branch of the family, was on the battlefield, and upon seeing that Napoleon was being beaten, went by horse to Brussels, then to Ostende, and for 2,000 francs, got a sailor to get him to England across stormy seas. When Nathan Rothschild received the news on June 20th, he informed the government, who did not believe him. So, with everyone believing Wellington to

be defeated, Rothschild immediately began to sell all of his stock on the English Stock Market. Everyone else followed his lead, and also began selling, causing stocks to plummet to practically nothing. At the last minute, his agents secretly began buying up the stocks at rock-bottom prices. The Rothschilds were so unpopular in England following their scam that when they threw lavish parties, no one came. So they hired George Peabody. JP Morgan was also used to build the Titanic for the express purpose of murdering the three wealthiest men who stood in the way of the Vaticans plan to take over the Federal Reserve Bank. The highly experience Titanic Captain, Mr. Smith, a Jesuit, would never have sailed the Titanic at full speed on a pitch black night through a minefield of icebergs. They made sure Guggenheim, Astor and Straus went to the bottom of the ocean with the Titanic, clearing the way for the passing of the treasonous Federal Reserve Bank Act.

THE BANK OF NEW YORK MELLON


BNY Mellon Corporation (NYSE: BK) is a global financial services company formed on 1 July 2007 as result of the merger of The Bank of New York and Mellon Financial Corporation. The Bank of New York was founded by Alexander Hamilton on 9 June 1784 When the bank had been founded in 1784, it had been established by a series of documents drawn up by Alexander Hamilton.[9] It wasn't until 2 May 1791 that the Bank was able to procure a charter.[9] The company employs about 42,900 staff worldwide and has over US$928 billion in assets under management and $20.2 trillion in assets under custody and administration.[4] It operates in six primary financial services sectors including asset management, asset servicing, wealth management, broker-dealer and advisory services, issuance services, and treasury services.[6] It is the oldest banking corporation in the United States, tracing its origins to the establishment of the Bank of New York in 1784, by American Founding Father Alexander Hamilton. Gerald Hassell said Bank of New York Mellon had become the second largest provider of fund administration services in Germany following its acquisition of BHF Asset Servicing GmbH The U.S. bank should become the largest provider within three years, Hassell said, adding he was also on the lookout for acquisitions in the rest of Europe. - http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSLDE62T0A020100330 More soon on these banks:

Attempted legal action against Vatican


Main article: Class action suit against the Vatican Bank and others Vatican Bank and Franciscan Order were accused of financing the ratlines and ODESSA and laundering concentration camp loot. A class action suit, Emil Alperin et al. v. Vatican Bank et al., was filed in the United States district court in San Francisco on November 15, 1999. The plaintiffs are concentration camp survivors of Serb, Jewish, and Ukrainian background and their relatives as well as organizations representing over 300,000 Holocaust victims. John Loftus, coauthor of Unholy Trinity, serves as an expert witness in this case. All charges relating to the Vatican have been dismissed. [16] Another suit, Levy v. CIA, filed under the U.S. Freedom of Information Act, sought the release of U.S. intelligence agency files regarding the alleged Vatican spymaster, Fr. Krunoslav Draganovic. New records on Draganovic were released as a result of that lawsuit in 2001.

Suing Vatican Bank


Richard Ludwig legal@sapphirecapitalcentral.com writes:
The account used in the US is: Account no.: 001-1-97500 With: JPM CHASE MANHATTAN BANK NEW YORK Its an Interbank clearing account. I guess the case you refer to is The Draganovich case and Alperin et al v. Vatican. The problem is that the IOR is considered to be at the same status as the Central Banks and therefore immune to litigation, I believe the angle needs to be the personal responsibilities within the use of the

IOR. There are many of these files and some of these only used the IOR for legitimating and the actual transfer went into different accounts, some to the Fransiscan Order accounts of local monasteries some via the orthodox church accounts in Greece. Chase was at the center of the US handling as was Citibank and Wells Fargo, there are Foundation accounts in the IOR which correspond to Swiss and Vatican depositories that have not been opened for years and include precious metal, art etc and they are kept from the dormant status by status messages from the IOR, I doubt you can even litigate this in the US; even with the US judges believing that they are omnipotent the system in the US favors rich and influental parties and the US administration ha no interest in this matter coming forward. The precursor of the CIA had even outsourced the documentary regime to an outside position in the South Americas. As far as I know there is a verification link for US banks but its in the offshore correspondent account department which means its pretty well protected and does not carry any info beside verifying the instruments issued for these accounts.

Alperin v. Vatican Bank


Originally filed in Federal Court in San Francisco in November 1999. The plaintiffs are concentration camp survivors of Serb, Jewish, Roma and Ukrainian background and their relatives as well as organizations representing over 300,000 Holocaust victims and their heirs. The plaintiffs seek an accounting and recovery of the Ustasha Treasury that according to the US State Department was illicitly transferred to the Vatican, the Franciscan Order and other banks after the end of the war. Defendants currently include the Vatican Bank and Franciscan Order. These defendants combined to conceal assets looted by the Croatian Nazis from concentration camp victims, Serbs, Jews, Roma and former Soviet citizens from Ukraine, Belarus, and Russia 1941-1945. Levy v. CIA is a lawsuit filed under the Freedom of Information Act seeking release of US Intelligence agency files regarding the notorius Vatican spymaster, Fr. Krunoslav Draganovic. New records on Draganovic were released as a result of the successful conclusion of that lawsuit in 2001.

The donation should be made out to "Istituto per le opere di religione" and routed to Swift Code IOPRVAVX, Good Samaritan Foundation, account number 14825-007. Considering the fact that the Catholic Church has been blamed for much of the spread of AIDS in Africa and has also been directly implicated in the Rwanda genocide, one cannot help to ponder on the meaning of the AIDS account ending in 007.

Background
If we do not know history we are bound to repeat it. 64 AD: Nero sets fire to Roma and blames the Christians for it 250: emperor Decius orders the first empire-wide persecution of Christians

300: the population of the Roman Empire is 60 million (about 15 million Christians) 303: Diocletian orders a general persecution of the Christians 313: Constantine ends the persecution of the Christians 313: Constantine recognizes the Christian church 380: Theodosius I proclaims Christianity as the sole religion of the Roman Empire 739: emperor Leo III issues the Ecloga that introduces Christian principles into law

In 1436, Johann Gutenberg altered an olive press to create a printing press machine making it possible to print more copies in a few weeks than could have been produced in years using handcarved block printing methods. Before the printing press was created, only the church and royalty were wealthy enough to have books printed. The Church for example kept the Bible in Latin ensuring their subjects could not read the word. In 1517, Martin Luther published the Disputation of Doctor Martin Luther on the Power and Efficacy of Indulgences: Out of love for the truth and the desire to bring it to light, the following propositions will be discussed. Luther went on to write what amounted to a 95 point scathing criticism of the Catholic Church and gave birth to Protestantism. Access to information helped to feed Europe's brainpower, closing out the Middle Ages for good and helping to open the door for the Renaissance. The United States of America represents the fruit of the Renaissance and the Reformation and the primary target of the Vatican.

Working as the Vatican's investment banker since 1823, the Rothschild Banking Dynasty has successfully acquired ownership and/or control of virtually everything of value in the world today. This includes all banking, oil, gold, diamonds, real estate, drugs (both legal and illegal drugs), the military-industrial complex, the medicalindustrial complex, the prison-industrial complex, the mafia, and all governments, including their military and intelligence operations and President Obama.

The Real Truth About Obama (RTAO) v. FEC and US Department of Justice
http://www.fec.gov/law/litigation/rtao.shtml

The Real Truth About Obama, Inc. (RTAO) v. FEC and US Department of Justice Case Summary
On October 1, 2008, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit denied The Real Truth About Obama, Inc.s (RTAO) motion for an injunction pending appeal and motion to expedite consideration of the case.

Background
RTAO is a nonstock, nonprofit corporation in Richmond, Virginia, registered with the IRS under 26 U.S.C. 527. RTAO is not a federally registered political committee and claims that it does not engage in express advocacy or make contributions to political candidates. According to RTAO, the organizations primary purpose is to educate voters and engage in get-out-the-vote drives, along with other activities that are consistent with Section 527 of the Internal Revenue Code.

RTAO intends to engage in certain activities in the current election cycle that it claims will educate the public about Senator Barack Obamas policy positions, including the creation of a web site, digital postcards and audio ads for radio broadcast and web site posting. The organization intends to fund its efforts by sending written communications to potential donors that describe the organization and upcoming projects. RTAO intends to raise more than $1,000 and to disburse more than $1,000 to broadcast audio ads and place them on the web site. RTAO claims that it is chilled from proceeding with its intended activities because it believes that it will be deemed a political committee by the FEC and subject to FEC and DOJ investigations and possible enforcement actions that may result in civil and criminal penalties.

Complaint
On July 30, 2008, RTAO, a nonprofit "527" corporation, filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia challenging the constitutionality of three provisions of FEC regulations and an FEC "enforcement policy." The complaint alleges that certain provisions of Commission regulations are unconstitutionally overbroad, void for vagueness, contrary to law and in violation of the First and Fifth Amendments. The plaintiff further alleges that the provisions in question exceed the FECs statutory authority and have a chilling effect on their speech. Regulations in question include those related to express advocacy, funds received in response to solicitations and the Commissions implementation of the Supreme Courts decision in Wisconsin Right to Life v. FEC, along with the Commissions "enforcement policy" on political committee status. The suit was filed against the FEC and the United States Department of Justice, the entity charged with criminal enforcement of the federal laws at issue. The Federal Election Campaign Act (the Act) and Commision regulations define a political committee as any group or association that receives more than $1,000 in "contributions" or makes more than $1,000 in "expenditures" during a calendar year. Groups or associations that meet this definition must follow the Acts limitations, prohibitions and reporting requirements. 11 CFR 100.5. Expressly Advocating. An "expenditure" includes, among other things, funds spent for a communication that "expressly advocates" the election or defeat of a clearly identified federal candidate. 11 CFR 100.22. A communication can be considered express advocacy either by use of certain explicit words of advocacy of election or defeat or by the only "reasonable interpretation test." 11 CFR 100.22. Under the reasonable interpretation test, a communication is considered to expressly advocate when, taken as a whole and with limited reference to external events, such as the proximity of the election, the communication can only be interpreted by a reasonable person as advocating the election or defeat of a candidate. 11 CFR 100.22(b). RTAO asks the court to find the "reasonable purpose test" for the definition of "express advocacy" unconstitutionally vague and overbroad and in excess of the FECs statutory authority.

Donations to "Support" or "Oppose" "Contributions" include, among other things, funds received in response to a solicitation that indicates that any portion of the funds received will be used to support or oppose the election of a clearly identified federal candidate. 11 CFR 100.57(a). RTAO asks the court to find this provision unconstitutionally vague and overbroad under the First and Fifth Amendments because the organization claims that "'support' and 'oppose' are undefined, go beyond express advocacy and are unconstitutionally vague." "Major Purpose Test." A group or association that crosses the $1,000 contribution or expenditure threshold will only be deemed a political committee if its "major purpose" is to engage in federal campaign activity. RTAO claims that the FEC set forth an enforcement policy regarding PAC status in a policy statement 1 and that this enforcement policy is "based on an ad hoc, case-by-case, analysis of vague and impermissible factors applied to undefined facts derived through broad-ranging, intrusive, and burdensome investigations . . . that, in themselves, can often shut down an organization, without adequate bright lines to protect issue advocacy in this coreFirst Amendment area." RTAO asks the court to find this "enforcement policy" unconstitutionally vague and overbroad and in excess of the FECs statutory authority. Electioneering Communications. Under FEC regulations, a corporation or labor organization can make certain electioneering communications so long as the communication can be reasonably interpreted as something other than an appeal to vote for or against a clearly identified candidate. 11 CFR 114.15. This provision is part of the revised electioneering communications regulations that were promulgated to implement the Supreme Courts decision in Wisconsin Right to Life, Inc. The Court found that WRTLs ads in question could reasonably be interpreted as something other than an appeal to vote for or against a specific federal candidate and, as such, did not constitute the functional equivalent of express advocacy. The Court noted that the ads content lacked "indicia of express advocacy" because they made no mention of "an election, candidacy, political party, or challenger . . . and [took no] position on a candidates character, qualifications, or fitness for office." The Commission subsequently promulgated regulations that include a test to determine whether an ad can reasonably be interpreted as something other than an appeal to vote for or against a clearly identified candidate. 11 CFR 114.15. RTAO claims that this regulation exceeds any permissible construction of the Courts decision and is unconstitutionally vague and overbroad and in excess of the FECs statutory authority.

Motion for Preliminary Injunction


On September 11, 2008, the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia denied RTAOs/the plaintiffs motion for a preliminary injunction against the Federal Election Commission (FEC). RTAO was seeking a preliminary and permanent injunction enjoining the FEC and DOJ from enforcing these rules and "enforcement policy." In addition, the plaintiff was seeking a declaration that the challenged regulations and "enforcement policy" are void and set aside.
