Who Your Friends Are Says A Lot About You.

  My mother always said, "Show me who your friends are,  and I'll tell you what kind of person you are." I believe she is right. I hate to pass judgement on anyone, it does at least on the surface appear that President Obama's reelection campaign could use a little campaign finance reform. The AP and The Washington Post have reported that President Obama,  will more than likely have to return a fifty thousand  dollar campaign contribution which he received from someone named Abake Assongba, Assongba, is being accused of fraud and impersonating a bank official. Miss Assongba,is accused of stealing some six hundred fifty thousand dollars to build a home in Florida and still owes ten thousand dollars in unpaid  rent for an apartment in Brooklyn. this highly questionable fifty thousand dollar contribution  comes on the heels of another two hundred thousand dollar  campaign contribution from famed casino owner Juan Jose Cardona that  Obama's reelection campaign has agreed to return.
  I don't know but it appears to me,  that the staff that runs the Obama campaign should examine their list of donors a bit more closely. I'm not suggesting for a moment that this type of thing doesn't happen with Republican campaigns but remember President Obama's campaign tactics were going to be different. He was going to run a more transparent campaign. I'd have to say his campaign is transparent all right, I can see right through it! I think this is just another example of dirty back room Chicago,  politics as usual.I would have to say that President Obama's choice in friends only  serves to make me trust him less and I didn't trust him much to start with! as always, my friends, these thoughts remain, just, some words, to think on.
