Seems they're just making this shit up:

"My column tomorrow is about President Obama's recent attacks on the U.S. Chamber of Commerce for 1) collecting money from foreign affiliates (totaling about 0.05 percent of its budget) and 2) sponsoring ads that criticize Democrats. White House Counsel Bob Bauer insists the president did not mean to suggest any connection between those two points, even though he repeatedly put them in the same sentence, since that would amount to accusing the group of violating the federal ban on election-related spending by foreign nationals. "Obama admits he has no evidence to support that charge." (quotation marks mine) "But neither does he have any evidence to refute it!" (damned if you do, damned if you don't!) Which, according to presidential adviser David Axelrod, is the whole point—i.e., the president feels no compunction about making shit up without full disclosure, who can say whether the Chamber of Commerce is violating the law?" (Who can say HE never did?)
"Well i don't have any proof you DO beat your wife....but then i don't have any proof you DON'T" Likewise no proof I did not kidnap the Lindbergh baby either. SHEESH!
From that vast conservative(?) think tank at the New York Times:
http://www.unitedliberty.org/articles/7135-obamas-false-attack-on-the-chamber-of-commerce-
"[A] closer examination shows that there is little evidence that what the chamber does in collecting overseas dues is improper or even unusual, according to both liberal and conservative election-law lawyers and campaign finance documents.
In fact, the controversy over the Chamber of Commerce financing may say more about the Washington spin cycle — where an Internet blog posting can be quickly picked up by like-minded groups and become political fodder for the president himself — than it does about the vagaries of campaign finance."
And we all know how The New York Times stands up for Conservative values(sic).

Uh huh.... Aside from redistributing our wealth, it's obvious that Obama and his progressive socialists are also good at redistributing bullshit... oh well, there's an ass for every seat.
