WASHINGTON – Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairman Reince Priebus released the following statement calling on President Obama to return the campaign donations he received from Jon Corzine:
“In light of the FBI Investigation into Jon Corzine’s company, President Obama should immediately return the $500,000 that Corzine raised on his behalf.
“As Obama’s ‘great friend’ and designated ‘Wall Street guy,’ Corzine did much more than give the maximum $5,000 to the Obama campaign: he ‘bundled’ at least 100 times that much from his Wall Street friends and fellow executives. While the Obama campaign has entertained the idea of returning the $5,000 Corzine gave himself should he be indicted, that’s simply not enough. The entire amount he bundled should be returned immediately.
“President Obama is fond of proclaiming that his campaign is funded by ‘ordinary Americans.’ But ordinary Americans typically are not suspected of losing hundreds of millions of dollars of their customers’ money. It’s time the President lived up to his rhetoric.”
