Political Punch

I think Obama should disclose his PLACE OF BIRTH and his REAL vault BIRTH CERTIFICATE.

He is an Illegal Alien, not qualified to run as President.

ABC Must report on this and expose the basis of the 6 yes SIX current civil suits filed against Osamabama to produce his Birth Certificate.

Osaamaba has produced 3, yes THREE variants of his Birth 'extract', all proven fakes or tampered with, which makes them INVALID, and in addition are NOT the actual Vault copies to prove place of Birth.

There are many Traitors out there today who are not upholding the US Constitution.

Dont prove yourself to be one of them.

Foxy.

Open your eyes MIKE when you read and repeat information!

From Open Secrets:
Obama: Full Disclosure 92.4%, Incomplete 2.2%, None 5.5%
McCain: Full Disclosure 86.8%, Incomplete 3.1%, None 10.1%

..... is for MORE THAN $200 DONORS not small donors of which Obama has millions?

The facts I saw is that 80% of Obama donors go UNAMED!

"it's tough for ten people to pour through millions of donors"

Another examples of OBAMA AUDACITY!

May I suggest that a part of the $ 150 million for Sept. be used to clean it up before it does become public?????

WHY NOT ASL OBAMA TO PLEASE MAKE THE SAME INFO AVAILABLE ABOUT HIS DONORS!

Show us you are not hiding anything. We can catch funny donations for McCain and check if they are returned. Since Obama is the one, we will be able to prove he has done no wrong as ABC wants to believe.

OBAMA IS SILENT BECAUSE HE CANNOT MAKE HIS DATABASE PUBLIC. THE PRESS IS COVERING. THIS WILL COME OUT AT SOME POINT.

THE PRESIDENCY IS WORTH A LIE OR CHEAT RIGHT?

McCain released over a thousand pages of medical records. Obama? Obama released a one page check up, no medical records at all. And speaking of not releasing documents. Why has Obama sealed, SEALED his college records?

I think that anyone in the news business ought to have learned by now to take anything the RNC says with more than a grain of salt.

"As for the McCain campaign's transparency, it's indisputable that it's better than the Obama campaign's when it comes to small donors."

So Jake, if it is indisputable Obama is worse on small donors, then I guess you mean to say that McCain isn't disclosing at all when it comes to large donors?

"A man who has nothing to hide, hides nothing."

That certianly explains the way in which McCain "released" his medical records.

They probably aren't releasing those names because they know if they have incomplete data like McCain, the Conservative media will infer those were donations from terrorists overseas.

"As for the McCain campaign's transparency, it's indisputable that it's better than the Obama campaign's when it comes to small donors."

Is that damning with faint praise intentional? "Yeah, it may be a big list of people named Anonymous Anonymous, but at least there's a list". The Obama campaign should put out a similar list with "we don't know" filled in for the name, and they would match the pristine standards of the McCain campaign.

"I've donated a little over $100. I prefer to keep that information between me and the Obama campaign."

While I understand a desire for privacy, you should know that if you donate a penny to Obama, the FEC has to be notified.

The FEC has all these records, Obama is not hiding them.

They just haven't made donations under $200 public because there is no legal requirement and the task itself is enormous.

I posted a perfectly sound reason on your other thread. Perthaps Jake is trying to discourage donations from people who DON'T live in secure houses in secure neighborhoods with security alarms and someone always home. Those might be DEMOCRATS, right?
So let's go back to only encouraging campaign contributions from people who can list their business, or accountant's business, as their address, right?

I've donated a little over $100. I prefer to keep that information between me and the Obama campaign.

It's very likely that if my information was released regardless of how much I donated (i.e. below $200), I would not have donated.

Of course, that's probably the goal of the Republicans. They don't want transparency (which the Obama campaign has actually been better at), no, they just want to supress donations.

What a joke they are.

A man who has nothing to hide, hides nothing. Open up the books, Obama.

There is no need to reveal donors info below $200...the average donor for O bama is $87.00...most of his donors are donors that do not give me a lot of money...this proves to you how much support he is getting....

"CHECK OUT FOX NEWS WEB SITE MCCAIN IN LEADING IN TROOP SUPPORT 3-1,"

What a shock FoxNews lying.

The Center for Responsive Politics, which analyzes campaign finance data, reports that a surge of donations for Mr. McCain in the final months he was able to accept campaign contributions moved him into the lead. By the end of August, Mr. McCain received $461,350 from military donors to $450,950 for Mr. Obama.

One of the interesting trends of the election was that anti-war candidates, not only Mr. Obama but also Ron Paul, were getting more support from the uniformed military than hawkish Mr. McCain. That remains the case. Mr. Obama received $340,400 from members of the uniformed service branches compared to $321,500 for Mr. McCain. Mr. Paul had taken in $213,000 from uniformed service members.

The report also shows that Mr. Obama also is ahead of Mr. McCain in military donors with overseas addresses, both those working for the Department of Defense as well as members of the uniformed services. A total of $74,650 came in for Mr. Obama from those posted overseas to $16,600 for Mr. McCain.

At least we can see where McCain's donor problem lie. That's a giant step in transparency, even if imperfect. I don't expect any campaign to not have problems, I just think it's helpful to know about them. And telling when they won't share.

What's with the $.01 contributions?

CHECK OUT FOX NEWS WEB SITE MCCAIN IN LEADING IN TROOP SUPPORT 3-1, CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT. OUR TROOPS THAT ARE FIGHTING THIS WAR BELIEVE MCCAIN CAN AND WILL END THIS THE RIGHT WAY. WHERES MSNBC AND CNN? THEY WONT REPORT THIS

God help us if Obama is elected!

I think Obama should disclose all his donors.
