Probably not so bad with the MSM protecting him as much as they did in 2008. With only 2% of his #181M donations reportable last month, 98% of them are once again coming from contributors as diverse as Bart Simpson, Daffy Duck, O.J. Simpson. And what was in in 2008, something like $200 million illegaly donated from foreign sources? Putin is just dying to get Obama re-elected so he can finally get his missile deal done to completely screw the U.S. of A.

Since last week, the news sphere has been buzzing about the possibility of an Obama campaign foreign donor scandal being the big October surprise of 2012. Since the Washington Examiner first reported the story last week, many are asking how the Obama campaign will handle foreign donation allegations expected to go public Monday in a major magazine and national website story. The Obama campaign has already tried to block the story from publication and although the details of the scandal are still under wraps, we do know taxes and unsecured credit card transactions are about to cause a major headache for the Obama campaign.

[COLOR="Red"]I think I'll wait until Monday to see what's going on. Sounds like rumors and mudslinging right now.[/COLOR]

Just yesterday, we received news the Obama campaign raised a whopping $181 million in September alone, pulling the question of foreign donations even closer to the surface and putting Obama closer than ever to reaching a $1 billion fundraising number.

The biggest commercial beneficiary of the "Obamaphones" is TracFone, whose owners have donated and bundled more than $1.5 million to O since 2007. It was in 2008, Obama's election year, that the "Obamaphone" became into existence, and now costs taxpayers $1.6 billion. They raise this money by allowing the FCC to literally impose a "fee" on your cell phone bill. A fee that almost certainly will have to go up (as much as $7.00/month by one estimate I read) to pay for the six million and growing Obamaphones to date. (There are one million Obamaphone users in Ohio alone.)

Our Democrats all say that they need to pay more...

The Wall Street Journal’s Stephen Moore has just come out with a new book titled Who’s the Fairest of Them All?: The Truth about Opportunity, Taxes, and Wealth in America and he reveals some interesting information about how much the top ten percent of income earners in the United States pay in federal income taxes as opposed to any other industrialized nation in the world.

According to Moore, these earners pay almost half (45 percent) of the country’s total taxes. This conclusion flies in the face of the liberal concept that top earners in the U.S. are not paying their “fair share� in taxes. Moore explains:


“The United States is actually more dependent on rich people to pay taxes than even many of the more socialized economies of Europe. According to the Tax Foundation, the United States gets 45 percent of its total taxes from the top 10 percent of tax filers, whereas the international average in industrialized nations is 32 percent. America’s rich carry a larger share of the tax burden than do the rich in Belgium (25 percent), Germany (31 percent), France (28 percent), and even Sweden (27 percent).�
