Romney Donor Finds Out What it Means to Be on President Obama‘s ’Enemies List’

Romney Donor Finds Out What it Means to be on Presidents Enemies ListFormer governor Mitt Romney & President Obama

Team Obama “named and shamed” eight private citizens for donating to former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney, The Blaze reported two weeks ago.

Frank VanderSloot, one of the eight men detailed by the president’s “Truth Team,” is discovering what it means to be on a president’s “enemies list.”

VanderSloot has run a wellness-products company called Melaleuca Inc. out of Idaho Falls, ID, for the last 26 years, the Wall Street Journal’s Kimberley A. Strassel reports. By all accounts, it’s a healthy and prosperous company — something of a rarity in this current economy. But that doesn’t matter to certain members of “Team Obama.” VanderSloot gave $1 million to the pro-Romney Super PAC Restore Our Future and that was enough to land him a spot on the enemies list.

The eight donors are “wealthy individuals with less-than-reputable records” and some of them have even been on the “wrong side of the law,” according to President Obama’s KeepingGOPHonest site.

And as for VanderSloot, he is a “litigious, combative and a bitter foe of the gay rights movement,” the site claims.

But that’s not all. This is where it starts to get dicey. Strassel gives us details:

About a week after that post, a man named Michael Wolf contacted the Bonneville County Courthouse in Idaho Falls in search of court records regarding Mr. VanderSloot. Specifically, Mr. Wolf wanted all the documents dealing with Mr. VanderSloot’s divorces, as well as a case involving a dispute with a former Melaleuca employee.

Mr. Wolf sent a fax to the clerk’s office — which I have obtained — listing four cases he was after. He would later send a second fax, asking for three further court cases dealing with either Melaleuca or Mr. VanderSloot. Mr. Wolf listed only his name and a private cellphone number.

Wait — an anonymous investigator contacted court officials and requested copies of documents dealing with VanderSloot’s divorce cases? That sounds familiar.

Some digging revealed that Mr. Wolf was, until a few months ago, a law clerk on the Democratic side of the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations. He’s found new work. The ID written out at the top of his faxes identified them as coming from “Glenn Simpson.” That’s the name of a former Wall Street Journal reporter who in 2009 founded a D.C. company that performs private investigative work.

The website for that company, Fusion GPS, describes itself as providing “strategic intelligence,“ with expertise in areas like ”politics.” That’s a polite way of saying “opposition research.”

Although there are no records indicating Fusion or Wolf have been paid by the Democratic National Committee, Strassel notes that “it is not uncommon to hire a less controversial third party, which then hires the researchers.”

Romney Donor Finds Out What it Means to be on Presidents Enemies ListFrank VanderSloot

Strassel tried contacting Wolf to ask him about his investigation.

“It’s a legal thing,” is all Wolf would say at first. Later, he sent the Wall Street Journal reporter the following statement in an email:

Frank VanderSloot is a figure of interest in the debate over civil rights for gay Americans. As his own record on gay issues amply demonstrates, he is a legitimate subject of public records research into his lengthy history of legal disputes.

Well, that‘s kinda’ true. VanderSloot has been a “figure of interest” in the gay-rights debate ever since he became the target of liberal bloggers and activists back in January when the first PAC disclosures were released.

When activists dug into his past looking for dirt, all they could do was accuse VanderSloot of being a “gay bashing thug.”Romney Donor Finds Out What it Means to be on Presidents Enemies List

The 63-year old has since addressed these accusations, saying that he has “many gay friends whom I love and respect” and who should “have the same freedoms and rights as any other individual.”

But despite his clarification and the rebuttal to his detractors, Team Obama is running with the narrative and accuses the businessman of being a “litigious, combative and a bitter foe of the gay rights movement.”

“[W]hen I first learned that President Obama‘s campaign had singled me out on his ’enemies list,’ I knew it was like taping a target on my back,” VanderSloot said.

“[But] the public beatings and false accusations that followed are no deterrent. These tactics will not work in America,” he said, adding that he’s “contemplating a second donation.”

      This is how I see it, we have the present Democrat Party=Socialist Party, we have the Moderate Democrats=The Old Democrat party. We have Moderate Republicans=Old Blue Dog Democrats, we have Tea Party backed Republicans=The Traditional Conservative Republicans. Oh and throw in a few Neocons and Old guard Flip Floppers like McCain. The Tea Party needs to keep cleaning house, pushing out the RHINO‘s NEOCON’s and the Old Guard from both sides of the aisle and maybe we’ll get this country back on track.

      Once we get rid of the Old Guard GOP we need to push them out of the RNC as well while we’re on the way and bring true Conservatism back. The folks from the Frankfurt School really did a number on the U.S. and its going to take us a while to repair the damage so pack a lunch. We‘ve got a lot of work to do and we can’t do anything less than restoring the Republic, The Constitution and Bill of Rights and clean up the past Judicial missteps as well and misconseptions that have been perpetuated.

      Obama said, “Of the 8 donors – some have been on the wrong side of the law.” I assume they paid the piper and went to jail and have been released. I remember that Obama had to give some money back after his patrons went to jail. Remember the biggest Ponsi scheme on record – Bernie supported Obama. A lot of Obama supporters owe the IRS – Al Sharpton 1.2 million, Warren Buffet 1.1 Billion. While picking Szars – 6 had to decline, except Turbo Timmy – the only man that could save the country. And don‘t forget good old Charlie Rangle who just wasn’t paying taxes on his Carribeen condos and those low rent apartments in DC. You and I would have a TAX LEIN AND BE IN JAIL.

I’m not saying Barry Soetoro is a Nazi, but he certainly employs their tactics from what I’ve seen.

      If you attend movies, buy videos, magazines or any other thing produced in Hollywood or the entertainment industry, you should give some very serious thought to the fact that the people in Hollywood and the rest of the entertainment industry support with millions and millions of dollars, the cause of the communist socialist politicians and their movement to destroy our nation.
      If you attend any professional sports functions such as boxing, baseball, football, basketball or watch TV channels that air these sports events you are in need again of giving very serious thought to the fact that many, many of the players and coaches give millions to the communist socialist politicians who are ever closer to destroying our nation.
      Political correctness is thought control by way of fear of retribution in the schools, work place, in public institutions, and many other places where their used to be what was known as freedom of speech. Evil is good and good is evil, this is the idea behind political correctness it is subversive and evil of itself.
      Speak your mind, but more importantly BOYCOTT Hollywood movies or other products and BOYCOTT professional sports events in protest to the leftist socialist-communist movement in this country, take the money you would spend, and spend it on supporting ways to save our constitution, our government, freedom and our way of life.

      1) Encourage the Black militants and leftist groups to take to the street and start burning down cities. Obama can declare martial law and use the National Guard and Army to restore order.

      2) Initiate a war with Iran with inadequate resources to guarantee the lose of American and Jewish lives.

      3) Insult the Chinese to start a run on the dollar, hyperinflation and economic collapse.

      Blaze, you’re being deceptive again trying to link information that comes from a Superpac to the President of the United States. That’s a lie.

      Corporations are people my friends, and this is a corporation, with the rights of a person, that can raise money and do whatever they want. Just like Karl Roves groups cannot legally coordinate with Romney these group are not under President Obama’s control.

      The information comes from a group that resulted from the Citizens United decision (“Team Obama”), a group identical to Karl Rove’s multiple Superpacs. These guys are just doing what Superpacs do, like Karl Rove‘s and the Koch Brother’s. They aren’t associated with President Obama, they are simply advocating in the public interest, which they are allowed to do under the Citizens United Supreme Court decision, just like Rove‘s and the Koch Brother’s and Dick Armey’s groups do.

      It’s false, it’s a lie, to try to associate this groups actions with President Obama. Romney’s already had to disassociate himself from commercials made by his superpacs.

      The statements come from a group that is not under Obama’s control by law. You wanted Citizens United?, you got it. Don’t blamed the President, who was against the decision.

      Restored, Who cares about Romeny’s VP pick when Paul is going to win the nomination? Romney does not have real supporters. He has supporters that blindly listen to the media, a handful of people that know what is best for our country? BS! Rule 38 people. It is too late to get around it and Pau lis going to have an upset. The r3VOLution is going to prevail. No delegate is bound by any state or district. The first round, all delegates can vote their conscience. Over one third of Romney’s supposed delegates are Paul supporters. Paul is winning the majority of delegates in the caucuses. We have done a good job of infiltrating the ranks and will have well over 1144 Paul supporters as delegates at the convention. The media continues to black out all this reality, and it is going to backfire on them severely. With the blackout, Romney supporters lacked in enthusiasm and loyalty and are losing delegates continuously. It is too late now to turn back the tide. We will be a force to be reckoned with at the convention. We will have over twenty thousand military and veterans for Ron Paul surrounding the convention hall. It is going to make great history.

Of course, dirt is expected in Hollywood (and accepted), so the focus would have to be on others. The interesting thing would be, how would the Obama administration handle someone digging into his Super PAC list.

      some of you folks need to take a chill pill. there will be elections in november. dont start believing conspiracy theories. you cant just suspend elections in the u.s. because the people would revolt. i dont see the military backing any move like that either. this is not a third world banana republic where the people are afraid to stand up. if that happened i think you would see the prez being arrested and handed over to the federal marshals by the secret service. another reason you dont make fun of your bodyguards. there are also 50 other armies, the national guard, under the control of the governors who i dont think would let this happen either. so, relax. everything is gonna be alright.

      You are so right. We must band together and defeat Obama in November no matter what. The ones who may prevent this from happening are the Paul fanatics who refuse to vote for Romney. This would be the end of America.

      Obama is a radical thug capable of doing just about anything to the people of this country to achieve his ends. It’s up to us to stop him.

      I sure agree with you SpaceCoyote…I’ve been thinking the same…BO will be more dangerous out of office than in. If folks thought he was dangerous before being President by “crashing board meetings”, etc, wait until he explodes onto the streets w/many more followers (if he loses the election). He truly does hate…not just America…but everyone. He‘d become America’s Bin Laden. BO has no real affinity to folks who just happen to have black skin…the first two people he ordered killed were those black guys in the life raft who pirated that boat.

      I can only imagine what a person must feel about both a father and mother dumping him, creating a Mulatto child that doesn’t fit in with either race (his opinion), with Communist leaning grandparents who hate America also. Apparently, BO finally decided that his black skin was the safer/easier side with which to relate. I have a sister in law (former) who has half black/half white children and they fit in with society just fine. They don’t hate either side…they really can’t…mother was white and father black. How can one decide which to hate? If at all?
