Norman Leboon . . . Donated to Barack Obama's Presidential Campaign (DemonRat Obama Contributor)
OpenSecrets.org ^ | March 29, 2009 | Dave Levinthal and Evan Mackinder

A man accused of threatening to kill House Minority Whip Eric Cantor (R-Va.) appears to have twice donated money to Barack Obama's presidential campaign, the Center for Responsive Politics' research indicates.

Federal records indicate a Norman Leboon Sr. of Philadelphia donated $255 to Obama's campaign on June 20, 2008, followed the next day by a $250 donation. They are the only federal-level donations made by a person with the surname "Leboon" on record.

So now we find that, of the cases of "incivility" and "threats," allegedly by the "tea bagggers," against DemonRats, the only clearly documented one that's produced an arrest was apparently made by a DemonRat who contributed more than $500 to the Obama campaign against Eric Cantor. I'm SHOCKED, simply SHOCKED. Some "tea bagging" member of the Baptist Ladies Aid must also be guilty.

Those Open Secrets entries list "Norman Leboon Sr." and his profession as "retired/disabled." I think it may be the FATHER of the 33-year-old man who was just arrested.

Let's be careful out there.

The 30 something guy names himself on all those YouTube videos as Sr. He has a teenage kid named Norman as well.

You don't seem to have read all the article, including the following sentences:

FBI officials on Saturday arrested Leboon at 1653 Benner St. in Philadelphia -- the same address listed in conjunction with the two donations. Campaign finance disclosure documents list Leboon's occupation as "disabled/retired."

Leboon refers to himself in numerous videos posted on the Internet as "Norman Leboon Sr."

All I did was recommend caution. It’s too easy to overreact when we think we have a link to the Obama campaign.

It does appear that this is the same Norman Leboon who was arrested.

The neighborhood he lives in and the entire city has been going down the tubes for decades.

Product of his environment, no schooling, no reason, can’t think and isn’t worth a crap.

Sorry to say I went to school in Philly.

Geno’s does make good cheesesteaks though. Stop there when I can.

If it didn't have a "Le" in front, I'd say it sounded Dutch.

Just goes to show that if you’re gonna threaten a president or congresscritter, write a book or make a movie and call it “art,” which is protected speech.
