As a follow up to the information I provided in my earlier post about the FEC complain the RNC has filed against the Obama campaign for illegal fundraising, here comes CBS with new information on new illegal and unidentified donors!
CBS News has learned that two donors to the Obama campaign that gave a total of $7,722 appear to have made their contributions under fake names that look like they were written by a mouse running across a keyboard: Dahsudhu Hdusahfd of Df, Hawaii with the following employer CZXVC/ZXVZXV and Uadhshgu Hduadh listed as living in Dhff, Florida listed their employer as DASADA/SAFASF.
CBS News did not find any records of these last names, towns or employers anywhere else. Newsweek reported two questionable Obama donors over the weekend named “Doodad Pro” and “Good Will”.
Contributions from the two donors Hdusahfd and Hduadh were made on the same day starting on July 16, 2008. Federal Election Commission (FEC) records show the campaign began refunding the donations as early as August 6, 2008.
Despite numerous refunds from the Obama campaign, Hdusahfd still has a record of giving a total of $7500 to Obama which is well over the legal limit for the primary and general election of $4600.
Because the Obama campaign did not have any checks or security verification questions on their websites to guarantee that the donors were eligible US citizens, the suspicion is that many of these donors are foreign nationals.
On the donation screen, the address section provided a drop down for donors to choose between all of the countries currently admitted to the United Nations.
This stands in stark contrast to the fundraising efforts of both Hillary Clinton and John McCain who require that a donor in a foreign country fax in a copy of their passports to prove that they were eligible to donate.
The Obama campaign took no such precautions. Not even close.
Up to half of Obama’s fundraising to date has come from so called “small donors” who, under current FEC law, do not have to disclose their personal information or have to be indentified by the campaign. The only reason that some of these irregularities are being caught is because the small donors are donating a totality of large amounts, but in small increments.
As I showed in my previous post, more than a few even listed their addresses in places like Iran, Gaza, Syria, UK, and the like.
Who are these donors named “dasuiohjehnhreiawhio?” Where are they from if not “diashklne?”
We may never know.
