"According to a published report this week, the Federal Election Commission is unlikely to vote to audit the Obama campaign finances, and will sweep aside a formal demand for an full audit that was filed by the Republican National Committee on Oct. 6.
"But interviews with current and former FEC officials, as well as a review of FEC commissioners' public statements, suggest that the commission could pursue an audit for cause of the Obama campaign, based in part on allegations of widespread fraud and illegal donors as reported by Newsmax.com and other publications during the election season.
"Helping impede the FEC was the junior senator from Illinois, Barack Obama, who placed a hold on a Republican nominee in October 2007. That action had the effect of keeping the commission on the sideline for the entire primary season."

Apparently, blocking the FEC from auditing your own campaign by bogging them down with another campaign is not an abuse of power.

The One has subverted the Law in so many ways. I doubt if anything will stick because officials will be loathe to overturn this ‘historic’ election. 0bama was always counting on that.

If I wasn’t a believer in prophecy before, I’m turning the tide now. Every day something new makes my jaw drop at the ridiculousness of what this man has gotten away with and how people are falling all over themselves to shove people out of the way for him. It’s amazing and surreal. Like a car crash I don’t want to see, but I just can’t look away.
I don’t have any faith that the FEC will audit him or his campaign. There are too many people lining pockets for that to happen.

A detroit radio station called the Kenyan embassy after the election of Obama. After a lot of trouble they get through to the ambassador of Kenya.
The ambassador of Kenya says that obama was born in Kenya and that his birth place has become a national shrine.
Listen to the
recording here
The quote is around 12:35, so if you dont have time to listen to the whole thing, you can jump ahead.
Be sure to download the recording as well. The chances of it remaining online for long are remote.
If you have the skills to post it on Utube...please do.
The Arnold would have run for president long ago and likely won if he were a "natural born" american. He's not. He's naturalized. So he can't run. And he knows it. (though there were some trial balloons sent up a couple years back about changing the law.)
Like the Arnold, Obama looks to be a naturalized citizen.
In any case the supreme court--at Justice Thomas instigation-- is taking up the issue Dec 5

The more apparent crimes that Mister Obama gets away with, the greater the magnitude and frequency of such deeds in the future.
Think confiscation of rights and property and silencing of political enemies here.

GOP better find their gonads in the defense of this nation or we’re doomed to a dictatorship of epic proportion. Our children and grandchildren’s futures are at stake as is our freedom and security. The stakes are that high!
Anyone know who we can start calling and demanding “justice?” If we don’t stand up on this one, we’re just like the Germans that watched Hitler come to power.

and if found guilty will be slapped on the hand.
To: HuntsvilleTxVeteran
If found guilty, the MSM will blame McCain for having put together such a complicated law! Now that would require the arrogance only the left possesses.

Had the situation been reversed & DNC filed, you can bet your bottom dollar the audit would have occurred.

prepaid credit cards with no way to trace the actual donor, seems OK right? Sorta like Chinese dish washers giving Hilda $2000 each, or Algore’s Buddhist nuns... what's so out of line?

Oh, I don’t expect this to amount to anything. I am just astounded that nobody objected to such an obvious conflict of interest. Use the system to destroy the system.

Just one more white wash.
Tell me, Do you believe the Government?
If the govt. said the sun comes up in the east I’d check if I were you.
