An audit of Obama’s campaign can only result in a Bush indictment.

“We found no serious or substantial irregularities...”

It’ll go something like that.

Took them long enough to start it. I bet it will be over by the end of the month.

The two FEC staffers doing the audit were shown outside the polling place in the Germantown section of Philadelphia in 2008. Keepin it real!

They’re trying to head off opponents attempts to show where his money came in 2008 before 2012 campaigning starts. They won’t have to answer direct questions. They’ll just say the FEC found no irregularities. And questions about his 2012 contributions will be nipped in the bud.

I think you’re right. I think Hillary unleashed Trump because of this thinking. I think they’re right.

Perkins Coie is the law firm keeping Obama’s documentation a secret. One of their former clerks was given a job in Judge Carter’s court when a suit was filed challenging Obama’s eligibility. I believe Obama’s personal WH lawyer is from Perkins Coie, unless recently changed.

IIRC, a Lawyer for PC was prepping for definition of NBC as well.

In 2008 Obama’s campaign website deliberately turned off all security checks in handling credit card transactions. The website allowed contributions from Mr. Woodya Bendover and Adolf Hitler of 12345 No Such Place Ave. With essentially no limits, and no tracking of illegal overseas sources, he raised a record amount of funds.

The Obama campaign’s website deliberately disabled the Address Verification System (AVS) check. AVS is required by Visa/MC for all Internet mechant accounts to prevent fraud. Yet the Obama campaign was able to override AVS and somehow not get sanctioned by Visa/MC for it. It was willful attempt to avoid the verification of the addresses of the cardholders who contributed to Obama’s campaign.

The potential for the FEC's audit became increasingly more likely as the FEC questioned some of Obama campaign filings. In all, the FEC wrote 26 letters to Obama for America warning the campaign that if it did not adequately respond to the agency's questions that it "could result in an audit or enforcement action."

rules are for other people. There was no stopping this juggernaut.

I can’t wait for Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck to take the stand and testify they made campaign contributions. If it gets too rough, I wonder if Disney will fire them.

Probably the FEC will use investigators from Gaza or the Hizbollah. Thanks Qbert.
