Obama’s ‘Good Will’ Hunting | Newsweek Periscope | Newsweek.com

Quote:
Consider the cases of Obama donors "Doodad Pro" of Nunda, N.Y., who gave $17,130, and "Good Will" of Austin, Texas, who gave more than $11,000—both in excess of the $2,300-per-person federal limit. In two recent letters to the Obama campaign, Federal Election Commission auditors flagged those (and other) donors and informed the campaign that the sums had to be returned. Neither name had ever been publicly reported because both individuals made online donations in $10 and $25 increments. "Good Will" listed his employer as "Loving" and his occupation as "You," while supplying as his address 1015 Norwood Park Boulevard, which is shared by the Austin nonprofit Goodwill Industries. Suzanha Burmeister, marketing director for Goodwill, said the group had "no clue" who the donor was. She added, however, that the group had received five puzzling thank-you letters from the Obama campaign this year, prompting it to send the campaign an e-mail in September pointing out the apparent fraudulent use of its name.
This guy and his campaign are some of the dirtiest people I've seen in ages. Soros must be running out of phoney names to funnel cash into the campaign.

Nope, but it sure doesn't make it the campaign-killer than sanrene would like it to be. McCain's just mad because people don't want to send him money.....

Well then since it's not okay from either/any angle, does that mean you're voting Libertarian?

If not, and you're voting Republican, EXPECT people to call you on this one.

Industry Gushed Money After Reversal on Drilling - washingtonpost.com
Campaign contributions from oil industry executives to Sen. John McCain rose dramatically in the last half of June, after the senator from Arizona made a high-profile split with environmentalists and reversed his opposition to the federal ban on offshore drilling.

Shame on you Obama shame on you fleecing America.

McCain will never take money like Obama has from terrorist countries and foreigners who do not like us.

He bundles groups of fake names into the system to cover something up.

He has been called on this before yet no one does a thing.

Time to put an end to Obama protectionism and start holding him accountable.

I think we're just seeing the tip of the iceberg of your boys dealings. Before it's all over he just may have a wider slime factor than Clinton and THAT is sayin somethin!

Industry Gushed Money After Reversal on Drilling - washingtonpost.com
"The timing was significant," said David Donnelly, the national campaigns director of the Public Campaign Action Fund, a nonpartisan campaign finance reform group that conducted the analysis of McCain's oil industry contributions. "This is a case study of how a candidate can change a policy position in the interest of raising money."
