A blogger's painstaking research into suspicious campaign contributions to the Obama campaign hit paydirt, as the mainstream media plagiarized her efforts and the Republican National Committee filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission.
The blogger, Pamela Geller of Atlas Shrugs, documented -- and Israel Insider reported -- numerous suspicious donations out of Gaza, which were later claimed to be for T-shirt purchases. The shirt explanation, however, didn't wash, and the Obama campaign has been left to explain why contributions that it said were returned apparently were not.
But the real story appears to be the sheer magnitude of such small and unaccounted for contributions, which may amount to tens of millions of dollars. There are indications that many of these contributions have come from the Arab world.
