Obama has to know which international leaders to bow to.

My point was that during the 08 election they claimed int'l donations were "oversights", since it's illegal to accept them. Now, not so much?

Expats working abroad are still permitted to donate if memory serves. My concern is that these folks are really just bundling foreign donations and funneling them into the campaign. It would be interesting to see the records on the donors that are located outside the US.

Did anyone notice that last name on the list?  That is THE Corzine that vaporized 1.2 billion dollars at MF Global.  Ugh

By having bundlers gather and funnel the money to Obama, they are responsible for verifying the legality of the donors, not ObeyWon.  That's his story and he'll stick to it.

That's why I put it on here. Fox had been hammering that part of the story hard.
