The unprecedented 600+ million dollars that Obama has raised, in turn, should (but doesn’t, at least in MSM) raise questions about popularly held assumptions.

Democrats’ constant cry that they are the party of the poor & oppressed doesn’t exactly correspond to the obscene amount of funding raised for Barack Obama. Look at the million plus funds (mostly from out-of-state donors) raised in a matter of hours for MN’s Michele Bachmann’s democratic opponent.

Just where is all this money coming from? You might ask Barack Obama or David Axelrod, but even they couldn’t tell you. Apparently, the Obama campaign subscribes to a “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy when it comes to receiving money. They can’t tell you if the money is from non-citizens, from foreign or domestic terrorists, or from sources that have exceeded the legal donor limit.  At best, this is willful ignorance that reinforces Obama’s glib disposition to deal “without precondition.” It’s time we think about the consequences of such an approach.
