POLITIFACT says this about FOREIGN money in the 2010 campaign: http://politifact.com/truth-o-meter/article/2010/oct/12/facts-chamber-foreign-money/
To which I say, do you --Politifact-- SERIOUSLY want to convey the idea that somehow Obama is misleading us in regard to foreign money? After all, you say he is only "half right" simply because we don't YET have proof of this money coming into this campaign. We're just now getting proof of 2008 & 2009 campaign donations in October of 2010!
PROOF is really hard to get because THAT IS THE POINT of SECRET donations from nameless, faceless people and corporations. NO PROOF! ("Gifted" to the U.S. via GW Bush and his Roberts' U.S. Supreme Court ruling in the "Citizens United" January 2010 case.)
Consider this: do you really think that an Indian or Chinese or Mexican company who stands to make millions or billions of dollars via the outsourcing of American jobs isn't funneling as much money into this campaign as it can in order to protect those dollars? ESPECIALLY if they could do so anonymously? Come on! Get real!
