Does anyone else smell the lies and hypocrisy? Obama is claiming Republicans and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce are using foreign donations to steal democracy and elections. This has been proven a lie, yet Obama continues to spread it. Obama is actively misleading the American people and he used a progressive blogs information as his "proof."
Even the New York Times exposed Obama's lie!
Let's flashback to this little news nugget from the Washington Post:
Sen. Barack Obama's presidential campaign is allowing donors to use largely untraceable prepaid credit cards that could potentially be used to evade limits on how much an individual is legally allowed to give or to mask a contributor's identity, campaign officials confirmed.
Faced with a huge influx of donations over the Internet, the campaign has also chosen not to use basic security measures to prevent potentially illegal or anonymous contributions from flowing into its accounts, aides acknowledged. Instead, the campaign is scrutinizing its books for improper donations after the money has been deposited.
The Obama organization said its extensive review has ensured that the campaign has refunded any improper contributions, and noted that Federal Election Commission rules do not require front-end screening of donations.
In recent weeks, questionable contributions have created headaches for Obama's accounting team as it has tried to explain why campaign finance filings have included itemized donations from individuals using fake names, such as Es Esh or Doodad Pro. Those revelations prompted conservative bloggers to further test Obama's finance vetting by giving money using the kind of prepaid cards that can be bought at a drugstore and cannot be traced to a donor.
The problem with such cards, campaign finance lawyers said, is that they make it impossible to tell whether foreign nationals, donors who have exceeded the limits, government contractors or others who are barred from giving to a federal campaign are making contributions.
Obama just wants to silence his critics and using lies to do it is so Obama. The hypocrisy continues with the DISCLOSE Act that Obama and the Democrats are trying to pass. It is hypocrisy because the bill exempts Unions and a number of interest groups who give heavily to Democrats.
It's the continued attack upon the First Amendment, brought to you by the Obama administration.
