OBAMA'S DONATION OBAMANATION - Dollars and Cents Making No Sense

In a previous post, we were trying to make sense out of "CENTS" in the foreign donation docs. Obama’s campaign donation pages are rife with donations that end in CENT. Thousands of them. Odd numbers all. Cathy and I have gone through thousands and thousands of donations that end in cents (as in dollars and cents) for Obama and there were NONE for McCain. More evidence of foreign contributors, since Americans living overseas would almost uniformly be able to contribute dollars.

The donations don’t show up on the FEC search either by individual or by the candidate. If you scroll through the pages of the donations alphabetically for Obama, the dollar amounts are what you’d expect legitimate donations to look like. i.e., $250, $500, $1000, $2300…but when you look at the database of transactions it is nothing like that. You get $74.37, $42.95, $116.38, $29.70…like that (those are actual examples). Clearly this is what you would get if you converted a foreign currency into dollars, e.g., 50 Euros would be roughly $ 77.12 Download SampleIndividualsodddollarandcents.pdf

Let's pull yet another one of the foreign donors that end in a bizarre .32 cents.

OBAMA’S CAMPAIGN IS ACCEPTING HIGHLY ILLEGAL CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS FROM UNIDENTIFIED FOREIGN CONTRIBUTORS WHICH IS HIGHLY ILLEGAL! IS IT TRUE THESE ILLEGAL CONTRIBUTIONS ARE COMING FROM SOCIALIST/COMMUNIST SOURCES AND RADICAL FOREIGN MUSLIM CONTRIBUTORS WHO ALSO MAY BE TERRORISTS AS WELL!!!

ps: caps used to emphasize How Outrageous and Illegal Obama and his Minions are in accepting these Illegal Funds!

[Soliton]

The guy is in Indonesia.

Thanks for sharing this info. - very strange indeed. Clearly points to donations coming in from outside the US... What’s with the Employer answer, too? “I am at least 25 years old”. What in the heck does that refer to, or have to do with an employer? It makes me wonder who actually filled out this form, and if they are familiar with English at all...

There is something SO WRONG about accepting any foreign contributions for any campaign, IMHO (this would exclude American citizens living abroad - but, something tells me that is NOT the situation here at all...).

I really hope they are able to do some digging into where exactly Obama is getting all his funds from. The thought of groups of liberals (socialists, Communists, and their “friends”) claiming a stake in our election like this is incredibly troubling... Especially when we are at war already with people Obama seems to have little problem with, and the world is marching ever closer to the next “big one” as we speak...

Saputra appears to be an Indonesian name. DJ is two letter code for Dijibouti. The Gulf States have MANY SE Asians working there. The only odd thing is the first name Anton.

[visualops]

There was a time...or maybe there wasn’t... when investigative reporters would jump on a story like this. This is so over the top, I can’t believe only the pajamas media is looking into it. That’s just shameless.

213.32 Djibouti Franc = 1.24023 US Dollar
213.32 US Dollar (USD) = 36,691.0 Djibouti Franc (DJF)

Median price = 0.005612 / 0.005814 (bid/ask)
Minimum price = 0.005612 / 0.005814
Maximum price = 0.005612 / 0.005814

I wrote to Glenn R. Simpson at WSJ Online who mouthed the Obama talking points that they had returned the money (Routed the Illegal Donations Out). He responded that he had no intention of following up on the story.

Well, that about says it for the MSM. Dying the death of a thousand cuts. Blogger cuts.

[PghBaldy]

EEEEEK! I accidently hit some button on his Fiendster profile, and it says I want to be his Fiend! He appears to be from (ANglicized spelling) SURAKARTA HADININGRAT, Indonesia - now living in Dijibouti?

How does an internet campaign receive and convert foreign contributions?

Perhaps BHO's website has some information?

This is interesting:
Julia Gorin relayed a funny (/not) story two months ago, her husband’s co-worker wanted to see what would happen if he tried giving a contribution to the obama campaign via a credit card. He used his Macy’s card. The system accepted it. He tried the same with McCain’s campaign, and the transaction wouldn’t go through. Now, obviously, down the line, the obama transaction would fail as well but ut it goes to the point that there is no safety system in place—it’ll just accept any and all $$$, which helps explain how his campaign raised so much more money than everyone else’s.

I wonder just how inflated nObama's contribution numbers are? Because you know month after month of insane numbers helps keep up that "inevitable" meme.

[visualops]

Not just “inevitable” but inflated popularity. The libs especially want to be in the “in” crowd.
