I believe that it is in fact HIGHLY illegal, and restated as such in the CFR act. I'm concerned that Drudge wouldn't address that - he drops the ball way too often.
I'd love it if someone could provide documentary proof though. I have quite a few places I'd love to post this little nugget of info.

It may be perfectly legal under the 527 rules. I'm not precisely sure. The 527 is not technically a corporation, which is how it skirts the soft money and advertising bans in the first place.
If they're taking foreign donations, it's disgraceful. This is the race for an American president - if they can't win without the support of Americans, why bother?

Is it illegal when the funds have been laundered via MoveOn.org?

Are you sure about that? I wonder if that applies to 527 organizations? This is one of the reasons the Dems wanted this - to get around the disclosure laws. We need to find this out. Make you wonder about Hillie's new organization. Certainly quite a bit of NGO money is international.
What is really amazing here is that the left see nothing at all wrong with this.

Wonder if all this money couldn't be confiscated if it were proved that drug money was donated to the fund? They confiscate cars, houses etc.
