- Here?s more on that from 2008: ?A breakdown of controls has enabled foreign and other unaccountable funds to pour into the Obama campaign ? and it?s not an accident.?
Plus, from the Washington Post: Obama Accepting Untraceable Donations. ?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.?
More here. ?Then there?s the question of whether foreign nationals are contributing to the Obama campaign. There is more than enough evidence to warrant a full-scale investigation by the Federal Election Commission, including the $32,332.19 that appears to have come from two brothers living in a Hamas-controlled Palestinian refugee camp in Rafah, GA (that?s Gaza, not Georgia). The brothers? cash is part of a flood of illegal foreign contributions accepted by the Obama campaign.? - Reply to this comment
- Since I didn't watch, is this the show where he thought a moratorium to investigate abuse of the mortgage industry should be brought to an end quickly and without much investigation? That will come back to bite both him and Obama in the behind too.

- WOW Never seen the Axe squirm like that LOL,kudos to Bob for asking some REAL questions for a change. Typical of this administration though they can dish it out but can't take it. They never did answer for all the UNDISCLOSED donations to Obozo's campaign from benign organizations like move on? answer that question Axleboob. And this one takes the cake "Well, do you have any evidence that it's not, Bob?" did you get that one Biden

- Rule of thumb at this point. If Axelrod is on, my tv is off. I decided a while back when he let us know the contempt he felt for democrats to the left of himself; that would be me among others. I never watch the bum and I'm going to vote for every independent I can find on the ballot, write in where there is no independent, and then I'm going to sit back and watch him choke on the results of his and Obama's ill-advised statements and bad leadership.

- Although I agree with Axelrod that foreign special interests will assist to undermine our republic, I doubt he would have been espousing the same rhetoric if his party had been the primary benefactors of these monies. Both parties are to blame for this, had they opted for campaign reform and rid the lobbyists of influence in the first place, anonymous donors would not be an issue to begin with. So I say in this case the dems reap what they sow. The recent SC ruling, and the bill that was suppose to undermine it somehow but did not do so are responsible. So another nail in the coffin for the people by the people demise.

- @_-_One_American_-_, LOL the 5 plus trillion previous administration added in addition to the interest payments that arise from it, our debt is increasingly paying for previous years of deficits, Bush's 2001-2009 budgets reflected that, and the republicans who were in control of managing the two wars did a horrific job. 1.7 trillion dollars lost in tax revenues due to tax cuts and in addition funding a war costing over a trillion, and add that to our recession which began conveniently as soon as the republicans left and the dems having to clean up the worse recession ever. yeah, I'm sure the republicans have better solutions, my arse. We need to get out of Afghanistan and Iraq completely and do an overhaul of the government, clean up waste, fraud and digitize it!!!

- Both Bush and Obama have done this country wrong. The back and forth finger pointing is getting old.
All politicals current and past are crooks, every one of them. - Reply to this comment
- Expect news of a quick way to become rich for American entrepreneurs, the Chinese government will soon end their restrictions against free trade and give all outsiders a chance to tap into their workforce. An investment of 50 thousand USD will buy a factory full of sewing machines and 500 low paid workers to operate them. A woolen ladies scarf will cost 10 cents to produce and bring back a buck. An owner will become a millionaire in less then a year. This is only one example of the great deals that will soon be opening up in the land of smiling yellow faces who love all races.

- I don't understand those who support Republicans the issue with waiting for November? Wait for what more incompetence from your leadership that is the reason why the country is in the state that it is in? If the American people are this stupid to put you back into power after the last 8 years then it is time to raise the flag upside down!
