The skeleton in Obama’s money closet
By Judi McLeod


Robert Wolf, CEO of UBS Americas, who has bundled more than $370,850 for Barack Obama so far this year, is one of the most embarrassing skeletons in BO’s money closet, now that the financial institution Wolf heads up in America has been outed in The Nation’s Attack of the Global Pirate Bankers.

I just want to know where the $1,000,000 Sen Obama gave to cousin Raila Odinga to use in his campaign to become President of Kenya came from. Why has no one addressed this or "followed the money" to the source? Did Sen Obama use his campaign contributions or his personal income? For a couple who complains about spending $10,000 a year on their daughters' after school activities, I'm inclined to think that the money did not come from his personal income.

Was the lead para written by the author of the piece? It was so confusing, I had no desire to click on the link and read the original.

Wasn't it Laz who was so proud of never reading the articles, just responding to the post? Where IS Laz, anyway? ;)

Sorry you found it confusing. When excepting must be done ... it must be done. The only way to know or learn anything is to read. But if your not interested, why even click into the posting. The article was very interesting. Sorry for wasting you time.

I was not commenting on your excerpting abilities, sorry if you thought I was dissin’ ya! I will read the article, just later, with no distractions. My comment really meant: If the writer really writes likes this, I'll need a couple martoonies to read the article...so that means after 5 pm! I do want to know what she has to say.

Sorry bout that.
