Well right off the bat ,one is in Israel and the other the PRC. .
However ,the fundraising in Israel involved American citizens who were not hiding their contributions in under $200 donations from untracable pre-paid credit cards.
Romney's finance event marked the first time a presidential candidate has raised cash in Israel. The campaign accepted contributions only from American citizens—since candidates and parties are blocked from raising cash from foreign sources.

You will recall in 2008 the Obots deliberately turned off the systems that would have guarded against the kind of fraudulent donations . The compliant press did not bother extensively covering the story during the key weeks before the election.
Well now the web site ;Obama.com ,was purchased by an Obama bundler named Robert Roche, who has ties to the Chinese gvt and who's business depends on it.
You don't have to worry .The press will not cover this in a way it deserves to be covered .After all ;they are too busy following the President around as he defends Big Bird.

He's in deniel Karma he doesn't want to admit that without chinese manufacturing his economy would collapse. His country has been sold down the creek to the communists by those same capitalists he loves so dearly and all he wants to spout is patriotic claptrap, He is worse than the chinese

Do you really think that he will reign in the profits his old company enjoys? Or old clients who he has dealt with and profited from? Or the sons he has raised to be the business man that he is?
Have you forgotten the IRA that continues to grow from his Bain association, or "blind" trusts that continue to profit from his business dealings? He doesn't have to own a company to profit from it. Why would he stop after he takes his own tax cuts that benefit him greatly, and his investors.

In the case of Sensata, Romney reported a charitable donation of $405,000 in Sensata stock that he received as “partnership distributions” in 2010 and 2011, according to his tax returns.
"One hundred seventy workers at a Sensata Technologies plant in Freeport, Illinois — of which Bain is the majority owner — are calling on Romney to help save their jobs from being shipped to China. The factory manufactures sensors and controls that are used in aircraft and automobiles, but has been dismantling and shipping the plant to China piece by piece — even as it requires the workers to train personally their Chinese replacements, who have been flown in by management."

Imagine the guys who has to build the stage the bosses used to announce the plant closing.
Pro-Obama super PAC charges Romney worker built 'own coffin' - The Hill's Video
Former Marion, Ind. Paper plant worker Mike Earnest said he and other employees of the American Pad and Paper plant were asked to build a stage from which company officials told them the news that their plant was being closed.
“Mitt Romney made over $100 million dollars by shutting down our plant and devastated our lives,” employee Mike Earnest said in the ad. “Turns out by building the stage, it was like building my own coffin. And it just made me sick.”
Teach a guy to fish and he can feed himself and his family if he gets dumped by the thrill of chinese cheap labor.

Well Tom it's a before and after situation if GM had been efficient and making the auto's the market wanted the jobs wouldn't be going to China, but what's the difference between China and South Korea, bet you didn't complain when US auto makers bought into South Korea, have you bought your Great Wall yet I hear it's the new Hyundai. This is the aftermath of your multinational corporations, it came back to bite you on the bum

So the court says there is nothing wrong with the law ;but gets to decide when the law can be implemented ? Nothing political in that decision.

Hello again, tom:
Nothing political in that decision.
A federal court on Wednesday blocked South Carolina from enforcing its new voter photo ID law in next month's election, saying that there was not enough time to educate voters and officials about it.
I don't know about you, but when I read the decision, I see that the PROCESS of implementing the law was flawed.. Once THAT problem is fixed, they have NO problem with the ID law, and I don't either.
That's anything BUT political, yet you see activist judges... Dude!
