Power Line reports how a reader at National Review Online “Corner” had his clearly phony $5 Obama donation accepted, but rejected by the McCain campaign. PL concludes:
Everyone knows that Barack Obama has created the biggest money-machine of any politician in American history. But it is becoming increasingly evident that Obama’s money-machine is largely fraudulent and therefore criminal.
He speculates about media coverage:
One can imagine a world in which newspaper reporters think it’s a serious matter when a Presidential candidate tries to buy an election with illegal and fraudulent contributions. That, of course, is not the world that we live in. Have you seen Sarah Palin’s shoes?
I know. Page one NYTimes stuff if I ever saw one.
Newsweek offers more on the fund-raising point.

I see a continuity of criminality here. The man calling himself “Obama” was part of a criminal underworld in Chicago with Ayers, et al., and ACORN. Then he got into corrupt Chicago politics (“Tony” Rezko, et al.), and now he’s on top of an organized crime empire, involving many of his old “activist” running mates, dealing in illegal campaign donations and voter fraud. The palm-greasing (his and his cronies’) via the illegal donations must remind “Obama” of the good, old Annenberg Challenge days.
If this is the way he acts as a candidate, imagine what he’ll do once elected? Oh, but we don’t need to imagine things, we need but look to sub-Saharan Africa.
If only America had an independent media.
Of course, I’m from the Wyatt Earp School of Journalism, which these days is a very small and lonely school, indeed!
Hopeless trying to raise serious issues with liberals — they feel so good about themselves for voting for a half-black man for president who will bring change and keep them comfy all their lives, nothing else matters.
It matters not to liberals where from the money comes. It is the end result that matters and that is winning. If it takes funny money to win, so be it. The mainstream media sees it the same way. Since Obama is their chosen one, calls to investigate will fall on deaf ears!
RE; “they feel so good about themselves for voting for a half-black man for president who will bring change and keep them comfy all their lives, nothing else matters.”
Never forget — feeling good is better than being good!
We are at the edge. Whose reflection do we see in these waters? For years we have heard nothing else from our “educated ” leftist friends but how close this country is to facist state. Now we clearly see this was projection of their own state of mind. They are totalitarians, maybe not all, but most. Useful idiots these guys are. They can, as one Ph.D. friend who recently turned wrote me, finally feel good. I believe we may soon have a constitutional crisis on our hands . Emperor Obama will not stand down when it is obvious he is not qualified. With all his international bucks, he and the ignorant masses will call this payback time. . . . Let us pray.
