We know this isn't true, well, most of us do, but that ignorance of the issue is what obama counts on - that, and a lenient press that will give him a pass for the bald-faced lie.
What jumped out at us in this exchange was Obama's statement, "the vast majority of the money I got was from small donors all across the country." We've seen that statement repeated elsewhere, but the evidence doesn't back it up.
He really has no shame in the various lies that so easily slip from his lips.
George Soros and other foreigners were his biggest donors. Why do you think he went to great lengths to hide who the donors were? Funny, that now, Dems want to pass a bill that states you can't get foreign donations and have to be transparent as to where the money came from. LMAO, it worked so good for Obama, they don't want anyone using it against them!

"In the general election, Obama got about 34 percent of his individual donations from small donors, people who gave $200 or less, according to a report from the Campaign Finance Institute. Another 23 percent of donations came from people who gave between $201 and $999, and another 42 percent from people who gave $1,000 or more."
34+23=57..If my math is correct that means the majority 57% of donors dontated less than $1000.

Sounds like Obama told the truth.
I guess it all depends on how much the other 43% gave.
Since you appear to like math so much...
If 99% of the public donate $1, and the other 1% donates $1,000,000... did you get more money, or less money from small donors?
The topic says "vast majority of MONEY", not vast majority of donators...
BTW, I dont think I've met anything funnier on CD, (and I've read lots of histerical things here), than someone who chose the name "Pelosi".. ooohh the laughter!!!
And...we should believe YOUR interpretation over Politifact, which lists this as a blatant lie?
Ahh, so it's up to "interpretation" and NOT fact. There's no "boldface lie" if it's up to interpretation..57% is more than 43%..Sorry but you can't change that FACT.
Interesting that conservatives are complaining about donations. Shouldn't you be at the stripclub spending taxpayer money?

I must say that I saw lists of some of the names who gave small amounts and too many of them were not from this country. I am sure that if the truth were known very much of that money was handed out by Soros and others and then handed in since nothing had to be done to prove anything. some of your small donors had the same names as many Mickey Mouse and other characters.
Please don't take offense at me calling lies Pelosi since I have been doing that for a couple of years instead of using the more common bs. I think Pelosi sounds so much more like the crap so often. I won't stop just to keep from hurting you or anybody else.

I take no offense to anything on an annonymous message board..If you think ANY politician actually knows where every dime they receive comes from, you're kidding yourself.
I wonder how much the Saudi royal family gave the Bush administrationS.
Obama is a master of deception. He is a typical politician who happened to be at the right place at the right time.
How's the "Hopey Changey" thing working out for you?
