Do you any evidence to back that up?

You just seem to be wildly grasping for whatever dirt you just might be able to scrape from under fingernails at this point. Funny thing is. You seem to be the one wanting to shove the hands in the dirt in the first place.

You're getting a little defensive. All I said is that it was "interesting".

That still doesn't add up. $55 Million?

So by adding all those up, what dollar amount did you come up with then?

rheff78 · #96 03-10-2008, 02:29 PM

I tihnk maybe ya'll are misunderstanding me. He raised $55 million in just the month of February. That just seems like an awful lot to raise in one month, don't you think?

I just don't see the leap from "he raised a lot of money" to "he must be friendly with terrorists" as anything other than slander.

I wasn't referring to just the comment about the money. You've made several unsubstantiated claims here against Obama. You try to bury him in mud...with talk of terrorist ties and whatnot, when you have no real evidence to back yourself up. Like I said...you want there to be dirt so badly you are the one shoveling it. I'm not getting defensive, just stating an observation I'm sure everyone else here is seeing.

rheff78 · #99 03-10-2008, 02:40 PM

But you took upon yourself to bring it to light. Listen, the claims I've made aren't unsubstatiated. He IS and WAS friends with known terrorists. That's all I'm saying. IMO I don't want a president that is associated with known terrorists or groups. You're more than welcome to support Obama, that's your right, but don't be offended when past actions of his are brought to light. Just an opinion.

If you really look at that site, you will see that it says that it only tracks any donations over $200. PLUS, if you go to sort by date and you see the beginning of donations at 1/31/08 you should also see that the pages are done by the 50s. 50 donators to a page and the first several pages doesn't even get out of the As. If you can't figure out that you take tens of thousands of people, times the hundreds and thousands they are giving and you end up with millions of dollars then maybe it is your math that doesn't add up.
