New Details On RNC's FEC Complaint Over Obama's Misbegotten Millions

Amanda Carpenter's got 'em.

Update:  Seems like a good excuse for a commemorative movie poster.

Barrys Millions

I'm delighted to see that McCain's new "gloves off" strategy involves informing people about Congressional Democrats' (including Barack Obama's) responsibility for the bad decision making at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac that helped lead us into the current financial crisis (despite years of warnings by McCain and other Congressional Republicans about the government-sponsored firms' irresponsible lending practices).

Now what I'd like to see is John McCain challenging Barack Obama from tomorrow night's debate podium to finally release the contributor details of his more than $200 million in small-dollar donations, given the gross irregularities involving fictitious donors that have already been substantiated among these transactions.

Failure to oblige would be another example of Obama's consistent lack of transparency, even in the face of alleged large-scale fraud.  And complying with the request would open one helluva kimono.

Update:  More bogus donors surface.  (HT: HA Headlines)

CBS News has learned that two donors to the Obama campaign that gave a total of $7,722 appear to have made their contributions under fake names that look like they were written by a mouse running across a keyboard: Dahsudhu Hdusahfd of Df, Hawaii with the following employer CZXVC/ZXVZXV and Uadhshgu Hduadh listed as living in Dhff, Florida listed their employer as DASADA/SAFASF.

The campaign can't chalk this up to ignorance, because they clearly noticed the irregularity.  They just failed to rectify it.

Despite numerous refunds from the Obama campaign, Hdusahfd still has a record of giving a total of $7500 to Obama which is well over the legal limit for the primary and general election of $4600. Hduadh gave $14,200 but the Obama campaign returned all but $222.00.

You're joking, right? They can't even get him to release his birth certificate with a court case... http://www.americasright.com/2008/10/berg-v-obama-update-monday-october-6.html
