Please don't forget those two brothers who contributed to "Osama" Obama's campaign and listed their addresses as Rafah, GA. GA did not stand for Georgia; GA meant Gaza!

Oh, I won't. I am the one who discovered them and Pamela Geller of Atlas Shrugs reported on it.

I have done some more digging and have found that, based on FEC reporting, the campaign did not refund ANY of the $33k donated from the brothers in Gaza as reported in this WSJ Online piece by Glenn Simpson Obama Camp Routed Out Illegal Donations from Palestinians . I contacted Glenn Simpson to inquire if he had a follow up to this story on the 'routing out' and he replied that he had no intention of writing anything else.

I did follow up and I found that the campaign has reported credit card chargebacks (oh really?) and has PURGED the donation transactions from the Edwan brothers (Monir, Hosam & Osama) of Rafah, Gaza Strip from their database. I did keep a backup of the original transactions, but if you query the FEC site now, Monir results in 0, Hosam results in $891 (hey guys...still illegal) and Osama is just gone.
