McCain campaign to return $50K in disputed donations (Sargeant's partner)

[rinsd]

WASHINGTON - John McCain's campaign said Thursday it is returning tens of thousands of dollars in contributions solicited by a foreign citizen.

The move follows the disclosure that the money was being raised by a Jordanian man who is a business partner of prominent Florida Republican Harry Sargeant III.

The McCain campaign said some of the people solicited by Mustafa Abu Naba'a had no intention of supporting McCain for president.

Campaign spokesman Brian Rogers said "that just didn't sound right to us" so the money is being returned.

Notice the framing. Its that a "furrner" solicited the donations.

Not the complete fraud of the operation.

Sargeant supposedly raised over $500K so I hope there are more "unaware" McCain supporters out there.

1. Ted Stevens money, now this. And, likely more of Sargeant's $$$

to be returned. Filthy pukes.

2. and how convenient that there is no FEC to investigate.....

that we have to rely on a McCain butt kissing MSM to do their job.

3. Will McCain return the money coming in from oil execs through their low level employees?

Yet another case of "if this happened to Obama then all hell would break loose" but McCain gets a free ride. How mavericky.
