Bush To Return Campaign Money

Donor had deals with Hussein's government

<snip>

WASHINGTON -- President George W. Bush said Friday he will return a campaign donation after the Free Press reported on an Iraqi-American donor from Michigan who had business dealings with former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein's government.

"Due to the seriousness of the allegations and due to President Bush's strong positions, we felt it appropriate to return the funds," spokeswoman Merrill Smith said.

8. Ah HA! That proves that Bush was taking money from the enemy.
Bush is financed by terrorists and there's no denying it now - he HAD to give the money back... that's OK, he's making a killing with all the oil they're sucking out of the ground.

I will be reminding everyone standing next to me in the check-out line from now on.
