Acorn, this... many interesting words seem to be flowing next to the 'chosen one' - illegal, immoral, greedy, ignorant (since he didn't know about any of these events, people etc.) and that's just 4... or is it 3 (I'll have to check with Biden on this one).

And exactly how many illegal donations did McCain get, hmmm? We know he solicited the Russian Ambassador to the UN for donations.

Barack Obama's 'Auntie Zeituni', found by The Times living on a Boston housing
estate, appears to have made an illegal contribution to her nephew's
presidential campaign because she is not a US citizen.

Following the revelation, Obama's campaign issued a statement saying that
Senator Obama had no knowledge of his aunt's immigration status, and that he
believed all appropriate laws should be followed in dealing with the issue.

Zeituni Onyango, 56, the half-sister of Mr Obama's Kenyan father, gave a total
of $260 to the Obama campaign during the third quarter of this year, records
show.

The Associated Press reports that Ms Onyango is living in the United States
illegally after an immigration judge rejected her request for asylum four
years ago.
