Full disclosure: I’m for Duncan Hunter.
Still, whatever problems MS has with RP, he’s being grossly unfair and obviously shrill about it. A few weeks ago, his website had a story that RP got a $500 donation from some supposed “neo-Nazi,” which I have a hard time believing, because RP’s paleo-libertarian ideology clashes with real neo-Nazis in many areas. I wouldn’t put it past certain left-wing goobers to have made a fake donation to RP’s campaign in the name of this supposed neo-Nazi; in fact, one left-wing “alternative” publication tried a few months ago to make $5 donations in the names of some notorious and controversial people to the campaigns of HRC, BHO, Romney and Giuliani, as an acid test to see which campaigns would return the fake donations.
Back to the matter at hand, MS’s website today had a link to a story that the RP campaign refunded about $3,000 of his $4.2 million haul on November 5 to the banks representing the accounts of stolen credit cards that were used to make donations during that one-day blitz. The link from MS’s site to that article would lead you to think that a very high percentage of that $4.2 million came from stolen credit cards.
UPDATE 11/14: Turns out the donations to the RP campaign during the November 5 drive from foreign (largely Nigerian) credit card thieves weren’t done because they like RP, they were done because they knew RP’s campaign would be a good place to test the stolen credit card info with small ($5) donations, just to see if the cards work, in which case they’ll move on to bigger purchases.
