One of obamas top campaign contributors accused of fraud.
« on: April 01, 2012, 02:51:48 PM »
A major contributor to President Barack Obama's re-election effort is accused of defrauding a businessman and impersonating a bank official.

Donor Abake Assongba gave more than $50,000 to Obama this election season. But her past legal troubles, which include unpaid debts, are creating a new headache for Obama's campaign.

The allegations were first reported Sunday by The Washington Post. Its report says Assongba tried to rip off more than $650,000 from a Swiss businessman and use the funds to build a multimillion-dollar house in Florida.

A campaign spokesman declined comment to The Associated Press but told the Post it reviews issues involving questionable donors. Obama's campaign returned $200,000 last month to two men whose brother was a Mexican fugitive wanted by federal authorities.

True, and that explains why the former Mormon bishop won't return contributions from porn executives! :o :o :o :o :o

What....?  Your saying somebody associated with politics committed fraud?  I don't believe it...
I'm voting 3rd party in this election by writing in Jesus Christ for president.  Sadly even if this were an option most of you would still vote Republican because "It's a two party system."

Did they not used to say at one time back in the day that "Birds of a feather flock together"?  The more we learn about Obama the more we see how true such a saying really is.  I mean Obama has a long history of hanging out with racist bigots and criminals not to mention appointing a few to his administration.
