Della's street [Mark Steyn]
I mentioned earlier that "Della Ware" of "12345 No Way" had managed to make a campaign donation to the fraud-friendly Obama website but not to the McCain site, and that the Obama money was whisked out of her account and into Barack's swollen coffers moments later. "Della" - real name Erika - emailed The New York Times and managed to persuade them to cover the story, if only on their blog. We'll see if the news is fit to print tomorrow morning. The headline is unusually robust - "Obama's Online Site Accepts More Fakes" - although the story continues:
To be fair to the Obama campaign, officials there have said much of their checking for fraud occurs after the transactions have already occurred. When they find something wrong, they then refund the amount.
If they'd really wanted "to be fair", the Times would have pointed out that, in order to accept donations from "Della Ware" and "Saddam Hussein" et al, the Obama website had, intentionally, to disable all the default security settings on their credit-card processing. I took a look at the inner sanctum of my (alas, far more modest) online retail operation this afternoon and, in order to permit fraud as easy as that which the Obama campaign is facilitating, you have to uncheck every single box on the AVS system, each one of which makes it very explicit just what you're doing - ie, accepting transactions with no "billing address", no "street address" match, no "zip code" match, with a bank "of non-US origin" (I've got nothing against those, but a US campaign fundraiser surely should be wary), etc. When you've disabled the whole lot one step at a time, then you've got a system tailor-made for fake names and bogus addresses.

Stalinists 'R Us
If this had been McCain, every news station in the country would be running the story, and Pelosi would be calling for a senate Hearing
Well, the only standards the democrats and our ‘free press’ have are the good old double standards.
obama ‘appears’ to be Mr. Clean, upright citizen, but I believe he’s running the dirtiest, most crooked campaign ever.
Yep
Could BO’s head of finance have her fingers on this
Penny Pritzker controls Transunion the credit reporting company. Does she have her fingers on the credit card co. accepting these donations?
THE Penny Pritzker...the one who was head of FAILED Superior Bank....and had a big part in CREATING the sub-prime fiasco......THAT Penny Pritzker???? MSM...are YOU reading....???? Doing any RESEARCH????? Or do we plebes have to do it all for you!?
Wonder if these aren’t massive PCI violations as well.
Maybe she is “gleaning” information from other credit companies. We call this credit card fraud. She might call it “potential donor mining”
Sounds like the type of lending practices and voter registration practices advocated by dems for years. Where's the friggin media in all this?!@?
I was on the elliptical machine at the gym tonight, and was watching a bit of Wolff Blitzed with the sound off, and the big graphic said “VOTER SUPPRESSION?”
They're in the tank, and they're reveling in it. Journalism's dead.
Obama has turned Nixon into a minor leaguer. Lyndon Johnson has nothing on this guy. Obama is involved with: organized massive vote fraud, organized knowing campaign finance fraud, coverup upon coverup, incitement to riot, Logan Act, incitement to committ loan fraud, interfering with US Foreign policy, bribery, perjury, obstruction, plus siamese twin mind melds with killers, communists, racists, and the main stream traitor media.
LBJ was far more orderly about it. His voters actually showed up at the polls in alphabetic order!
What’s the best way to look up Obama’s contributors? The fec’s web site is s-l-o—o-—w.
#4 =>> Must see Pic. & thread... Ob & the credit cards donations...
#6 => obama ‘appears’ to be Mr. Clean, upright citizen, but I believe he’s running the dirtiest, most crooked campaign ever.

Listening to Austin Hill in DC this evening, when the 9 PM ABC “news” break came on. Eagerly anticipating the vital stories about ACORN and the Obama Crime Syndicate’s continued election fraud campaign, just imagine my surprise when they breathlessly led with Ashley Todd’s hoax, the fresh new “scandal” about Palin’s makeup consultant earning $28,000 in two weeks, her falling favorability numbers, and the ABC poll indicating Messiah’s 9 point lead.
ABC’s got the champagne on ice and the big banner reading “WE DID IT!!” all ready to break out on erection, er, election night.
