Those were the Republican strategist’s words this morning when I asked him if he would disclose the names of donors to his conservative Crossroads GPS group that supports Republican campaigns via ads.
“The president is being hypocritical about this. He had no problem at all with this when groups were spending money on his behalf in 2008 and not disclosing donors. He had no problem at all not disclosing his own donors, tens of millions of dollars of contributions to his campaign,” Karl Rove said on “GMA.”
“And now he turns around because Republicans have taken up and started doing the same things Democrats have been doing for years,” he said.
Due to the Supreme Court’s ruling in Citizens United companies can donate an unlimited amount of funds anonymously. Yesterday at a campaign stop in Pennsylvania Vice President Biden accused Rove of raising money from “shady sources” and even challenged to Rove to “tell me that this money isn’t coming billionaires and millionaires, insurance companies, oil companies, major executives who have about as much in common and concern with the people in north east Pennsylvania as I don’t know what.”
Rove passed on Biden’s challenge – but when I asked him about Obama’s accusation that those unknown donors could be “foreign-owned companies” he said the money is not coming from foreign companies.

I believe Karl Rove over obama and his lying cohorts in cluding the coolaid drinking Stephanopoulous !!
Poor little Obammy boy and his crew of crooked czars, they are on the run. I just love watching them all trip on all their lies and high crimes. So all i have to say today is, …. Run Obammy, run! Yes run to the sand for your burial in the sand and get ready for the stoning to come!
Here's the gig to me: The Democrats are "now" 100% Marxist's money and the Republicans are yet to be determined. However, all ties go to the winner??? Abbott and Costello come to mind. It's clear the Wilson was a Marxist and FDR also was Marxist with no debate, as his FDR's latest version Obama, also called in Scripture the "forbidden foreigner(non-Israelite) put over Israel by the seed of Joseph, not Judah(Genesis 48:16 & Deuteronomy 17:15). Bottom line is that the Marxists(Anti-Messiah's) run this country and have for years since at least 1901, but probably sooner than that knowing that Marx formally introduced "Lucifer" to America in 1848(Lincoln?)! Yes, even Lincoln, a lawyer, by the way, came after Marx! "All the worlds a stage and the men and women only players!" Yes, William Shakespeare even knew! All we need now is the "evil" white man being declared the only problem in America and these white men exterminated through another holocaust. Watch!
O'Bammy, where did you get your donations? We all know the Palestines and the Pakistanians were funding your campaign. Probably Saudi Arabia too. You are a two-faced lying scum bag.
Who but the stupid sob's that voted for this lying b-s-a-d would believe anything we has to say. Every time he moves his lips he lies!!!
Biden's hypocrisy is commical to say the least!
Disclose Obama's donators from the 2008 election first before you condem any lack of disclosure by Conservatives of their donators whether it be a organization or individual.
This reminds me of a recent column by Joseph Farah touching on the woman taken in adultery, John, Chapter 8. Where the scribes and Pharisees were tempting Jesus that they could have something to accuse him of either touching on their law or the Roman law but he did not take that bait and neither should the Republicans. They brought him a woman they said was taken in the very act and you can't commit adultery without a partner.
~ Le 20:10 ¶ And the man that committeth adultery with another man's wife, even he that committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.~
These scribes and Pharisees were ignoring this part of the law, making them sinners and unworthy to cast that first stone. When there were none left to accuse the woman then Jesus told her to go and sin no more. In other words he did not hold her for her past but she could not continue to commit adultery as many of our current teachers of morality seem to teach. Read Ezekial chapter 18.
I am not saying all financing comes from a pure motive because it doesn't. Ponzi had to put up some finance to get his scheme going. That made him a thief and if I put up campaign money to get personal quid pro quo that also makes me an outlaw. If you are running for office and take that contribution with such an intent that also make you an outlaw. Therefore the majority of people voted into office seem to be outlaws and if they can control the law they can also control the punishment. That seems to be the current standard operating procedure so Obama, Pelosi, Reid, Barney Frank et al live in security while despising our Constitution.
We are given a sound mind that we may pass judgment on these things and we are also given sound doctrine on which to base that judgment. If we use neither we do become victims of the lawless.
Poor little Sambo and his partner Joe Bite Me will they disclose all those donors that gave to Sambo in 2008.Hell these 2 won't give you the right time of day let alone the truth.I wonder if Joe Bite Me has to pay taxes on his hair replacement and did he get this new rug to please his trophy wife.
Isn't Karl the one who was going to help Bush and the neo-cons create a "permanent Republican majority"? No wonder his employer is Fox News.
obama and soros and the tides foundation wanting 1 new world order.
James where in the world did you come up with that comment!
You need too lighten up on the smoke!
Where else does an ignorant libtard come up with comments? From where he sits.
He makes them up,don't forget he's a teacher ,historian,blogger and former journalist for Pravda.He must be a product of hippie dope smoking parents.
My parents and I all probably wish we were young enough for that to be true, Ed. On the other hand this is about as close as you generally get to the truth, so congrats on that.
Thank you and atleast you come back with something others don't respond.Have a good day
Thanks. And a good day to you, as well.
THIS EXPLAINS WHY YOU ARE SO DUMB!
James possibly you were mentally damaged when you were still in your mothers womb from too many drugs or a overdose? At least you are honest about your heritage & coming from hippie dope smoking parents.
