Please allow me to revise and extend my remarks.
Where do rights come from and where dose Obamas money come from? What do they have to do with each other?
Obama talked up taking public financing when it made him look clean in the primary. McCain even says that Obama agreed to take public money and the resulting spending limits if McCain did. When Obama moved from his nomination team toward Howard Dean and the party team he changed his song. Obama said that his internet fund rising was a new kind of clean public finance. This after it was clear McCain would unilaterally disarm and take public financing what ever Obama did and after the nomination races were settled. Now we learn that the internet fund rising was just as tricky as computer voting.
The existence of anonyms prepaid credit cards that can transfer money into Obamas cash mill mean that Obama money could have come from anywhere. The sprit of election law in this country is that contributions must be recorded. This is the wired equivalent of grocery bags full of cash moving around in car trunks but better. The cash is laundered into campaign accounts. Obama can publicly brag about his no records money. JFK would be proud. Some reporters have downplayed the importance of this mother of all loop holes because the say that the money is so untraceable that Obama doesn?t even know where it came from so it can't be a bribe. Silly reporter?s cool aid is for kids. While there may be some true mystery money, bundling net-roots cash would be simple. Bundling which is a no-no was the practice of an employer who could only legally give $2K forcing many employees to write $2K checks from personal accounts and then give them to the employer. The employer puts all the check in on envelope and delivers them him self in return for the favors that big donation can buy. You set up a charismas tree which is a large set of small transactions that are coordinated. They pretend to be small and separate to remain legal or get some preference but in truth they are one big transaction. So Barbra or some South American revolutionary gets some clerical workers to transfer cash or wire transfers into untraceable prepaid credit cards. Then you do the typing to push the cards into team Obamas new kind of politics. If you use key stroke history logs or video of the screen shots wile typing in the card numbers, recording the time and size of the transactions you can deliver the recording to an obamanistan who is down with the game team. The evidence that a large set of donations were made from the same group of people is the equivalent of the envelope with a name on it stuffed with checks. Obama can check your record of sending money with his records of receiving money and know for whom the cash totals toll.
I should say that while I know that this is possible with a little skill at spy craft and I know that may American pols have played different variations on this scam I do not know any particular facts that prove anything. Then again "trust me I am a change kind of leader" is not the sprit or the letter of American campaign law. Making the rules up as we go is such a hard habit to brake. It is hard to prosecute crimes that haven?t been prosecuted before so inventive criminals get some slack, even more so if they win.
So what right do I have to care how my commander in chief is selected? Well that brings me back to the nasty stuff I have been saying about the French. The "Chesses Eating Surrender Monkeys" are in fact not cowards at all. They are just two comfortable with half measures and playing footsy with evil. They found a way to put one foot in the Third Riche and keep one foot out. They were fine with one foot in N.A.T.O. and one foot out. The global war on terror is a N.A.T.O. mandated except for when it isn't. You see French are statist. What traditional Americans see as plain evil the French see as an unfortunate lack of sophistication. Wile those American cowboys can be damned convenient they don't understand how to run a nation state.
Remember I am talking in big stokes. There are French who think like Americans and Americans who think like French. We could see an American thinking
Reasons and Excuses
That old broken politics that Obama deplores isn?t gone. Palin has been swimming through it ever since the convention. The bulk of the hits she takes are about inarticulate interviews wile she was adjusting to big league pitching and her dress. As for the gaffs we should make a chart or the misspeak from each person in the race.
Palin pondered theoretical changes to the role of the V.P. and got cotton mouth when she didn?t want to talk about what papers she reads. If you say you read it are you endorsing it or if you say you don?t read it are you saying you?re uninformed? It?s like asking a student to go on record about who?s their favorite teacher- you make one friend and may enemies.
Biden dangled bait in front of our enemies. These people think they can make friends and influence people by humiliating America. Biden as much as said we would be very easy to humiliate just after an Obama swear in. Obama benched Biden for a wile but the press never talked about tension between that team. Terrorist raise donation and volenters by killing Americans and Democrats raise money and volunteers by calling Pennsylvania?s racist. Was Biden protecting us with those comments?
Obama wants to spread the bitterness around and talk face to face with the Legion of Doom wile back bighting Pennsylvania.
McCain wanted to make some hay out of Murtha?s slur against the KeyStoneState and got it flat backward saying,?I couldn?t agree more.?
Pelosi, who is authentically Catholic the way Taco Bell, is Mexican health food, tried to teach a Bishop doctrine. She got an invitation to come to the principal?s office and say that waist to his face. She could also explain why she wants to continue receiving Holy Communion. Not much press on that one. If Palin had slighted the Catholics it would have been a ten day story.
People living with every pleasure and no obligation are not good to them selves or others and frequently end up under heavy obligations and with little pleasure. We are unfit to be our own judge. We need corrective lenses.

"Special Report With Brit Hume" from October 22, 2008. This copy may not be in its final form and may be updated.  link KRAUTHAMMER: What's remarkable about the reaction to Palin is not only the unfavorable. It's the loathing, the absolute hatred that you hear, especially from intellectuals, feminists, sort of east coast, west coast, pointy headed. And this is because EASTON: But some conservative women, too. KRAUTHAMMER: But this had a pedigree. It didn't just start. In the '80's, you had the Margaret Thatcher and Jeane Kirkpatrick who were considered because they were not liberal, they were conservative. They were actually it was said of them as has been said of Sarah Palin, they were not women because you couldn't be. If you were a conservative. You were, by definition, a patriarchal thug. And if you happened to be a woman, it was simply in women's threads. EASTON: That is not true. There is a lot of respect for Jean Kirkpatrick. There was. There was a lot of respect for her. KRAUTHAMMER: The viciousness with which she was attacked as a contradiction in terms, a conservative woman. In Palin's case, I think what adds to it is her decision at her age with four other children to have a down syndrome child. This, too, as Joseph Epstein wrote, in feminist circles if abortion is not about this, what's it about? And they look at her as sort of a back room a backwater hick, who, for religious reasons, went ahead and had a child that they would never have. Underneath it, I think, deep underneath it, I think it's a self-loathing on the part of these feminists, knowing that what she did is virtuous and a generous act that they would have never have undertaken. And her having undertaken it is an affront to them, a silent rebuke. Dust n? Bones Guns and Roses
