Where DOES the Money Come From?
Atlas Shrugged ^ | July 20, 2008 | pharmamom

Posted on 07/20/2008 5:00:27 PM PDT by pharmamom

I don't know if this has received Freeperization yet, but Atlas Shrugged has an interesting post about Obama's evidently very-rich-yet-unemployed donors. Surely this will be followed up on by the MSM?

Soros-funded straw donors?

Foreign money coming through straw donors, just like those Chinese laundry folks through whom Red China and Norman Hsu was funneling big money to the Clintons.

It's pretty easy to figure out...!

Working link to Atlas Shrugs article

. LOTS of foreign addresses. Here's a sample:

A red flag is a donor like Jeanne McCurdy. Look at the contribution excerpt below. It's a compilation of a mere four pages of listings, pages 40-44, approximately 9% of the pages of the total document I received, and it lists contributions made by a Jeanne McCurdy, who is always listed as unemployed, and who does not have an address at least as can be found in the files provided (and, as you might well expect, no phone number or email address either).

John did a computation of her contributions from roughly Aug. 07 through Feb/Mar of 08, and it is over $1200. She ranges from a $15 to a $400 contribution, most running $25/35 to $50. Several of her separate contributions are listed on the same day, a very curious way to make campaign contributions, which are usually in response to mailed solicitations. (She should accumulate them, save on postage.)

Someone needs to forward this to Rush, Glenn, Shawn, and Mark Levin.

Silvie, can you get this article to Chris Plante? Talk Radio needs to see this now and talk it up to get someone’s attention...!

The FEC will investigate this . . . and issue their ruling in mid to late 2009. There will be a small fine and a strongly worded letter.

“Soros Buys Presidency” would make a good headline.

the reason, imo, that al obama went off the government dole

is because he does not want to account for his finances.

We need to convert this list to a data sheet, so we can compile individual contribution, , the dates and the amounts paid in, and aggregate the total contributions. There are about 5 or 6 people who "feel" like the Hitchcockian Ms. McCurdy in this mess, so far, and we're only 44 pages through a close to 500 page document. Can any Atlas reader tell me how to convert a word document to a data sheet?

If it can be done someone on FR will know how to do it.

You mean we have another Hillary/Soros funding?

Shouldn’t these people be investigated?

UPDATE Jeanne McCurdy works for CBS! TRK sent me this.

She has a blog on Obama’s site & shows up on a Huffington Post page donating over $3K to Obama

Here she is at the Huff Po’s Fundrace

Also shows up as a writer for CBS on Linkedin.com also see this:
In part of our initial discussion, the New York Giants asked us to produce and provide a two-minute video about FOP that they would play on the big-screens during the pre-game ceremonies. A request was made to Hillary’s friend - Jeanne McCurdy - to help in this regard. (here)

UPDATE: Why would Rebecca Kurth give $3137.38 in 112 donations including 34 separately recorded donations on 30-Apr-2008? (ha tip gadget doc)

UPDATE: Interesting tidbit from Dee: Check out Kurth’s middle name ... Hussein. Rebecca Kurth’s Obama blog (Milton Keynes, UK)

Another interesting tidbit from gadget doc. 500k donated by “not employed” people.

heh.

I wonder why the heck she’s using an APO (Army Post Office) in Frankfurt Germany as an address. Or is that Barack’s address?

Why is anyone surprised? Dead voters appear in Democrat-heavy cities every election, and last-minute voter registration drives are really just vote multiple times campaigns.

Go, Atlas!

Of course it's foreign money. This is the being stuffed here by globalists. Interesting times ahead.

Yeah, I discovered that. Sorry. I don’t do this posting to other people’s stuff very often, so I screwed it up. Anyway, I didn’t know if it means anything or not...I do suspect that even if legal, should it ever make the MSM (in a parallel universe where pigs fly and Hell is very, very cold), people would wrinkle up their faces and say, “Huh?”

VR,

I clicked on the article, and it doesn’t show up (Atlas Shrugged). I need an article to forward to Chris. Let me know if you can link me to it.
