True, according to Snopes.com, Dowd...Hold on there. True, according to Snopes.com, Dowd didn't write the column. But that does not deal with the issues raised there. We still don't know who --if anyone!-- CHECKS on statements by the campaign regarding possible foreign donations--and when. How are we assured that foreign citizens have not contributed to Obama's campaign? This assurance is to be found on the donation form. It consists entirely of a check mark BY THE DONOR affirming that his contribution does not come from a foreign source. A check mark! That's IT? We are not assured that the campaign itself actually checks any further than looking for a check mark. We are not assured by Snopes.com whether US Federal laws prohibit such donations. Assume for the sake of argument that such laws exist: who checks up on compliance, and when-- (before or after the new president is sworn in?) Is it up to the OTHER campaign to check it out, or do the Feds devote the time and effort? So while Dowd may not have written the column, serious issues have still been raised.Concernedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01666993639667520328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6632148178430811066.post-6115660345586158622008-07-16T05:34:00.000+03:002008-07-16T05:34:00.000+03:00Dowd did not write it.http://www.nytimes.com/2008/...Dowd did not write it.<BR/><BR/>http://www.nytimes.com/2008/06/29/opinion/29dowd.html<BR/>It’s Over, Lady!’<BR/>Though the victor and vanquished stood side by side, there was plenty of ambiguity, duality and ferocity in Unity, N.H.<BR/>June 29, 2008<BR/><BR/><BR/>http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/donations.asp<BR/><BR/> <BR/><BR/>http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/07/08/maureen-dowd-becomes-fict_n_111509.html<BR/><BR/><BR/>But even if Maureen did not write it, could be possible to fraudulently funnel campaign money to the Obama campain, <BR/><BR/>The only thing that would tie the contributions together would be the credit card.<BR/><BR/>(Visa ,MasterCard ,American Express ,Discover )<BR/><BR/>every other piece of info on the contribution page can be faked.<BR/><BR/>https://donate.barackobama.com/page/contribute/main?source=homedropdownBurtBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07184408616594358095noreply@blogger.com
