Obama and the gay porn baron
A FORMER porn baron has handed donations worth THOUSANDS to Barack Obama in a controversial bid to boost his US presidential campaign.
The News of the World can reveal Obama (right) and his Democrat team accepted the cash from 60-year-old Terry Bean — despite knowing he was once trustee of a hard-core gay video empire.
A source said: “In recent years Bean has tried to distance himself from porn but his past will never go away.
“He was at the helm of a company who have made millions out of sleazy videos.
“And Bean has pledged thousands of this dirty money to Obama and other Democratic causes. He recently sold the company but that’s where much of what’s in his bank account came from. And Obama has willingly accepted it.”
Until just four years ago Bean, who is also a real estate broker from Oregon, was trustee of US firm Conwest who owned Falcon Studios.
They have produced more than 400 explicit gay sex videos with titles like Sleaze and Greased.
DIRTY MONEY: Terry Bean
Bean pledged £1,400 to Obama personally in 2007 and a fundraising group he heads has so far raised £26,740 for his presidential campaign. Our source added: “Bean has helped Obama’s campaign enormously.
“He regularly hosts dinners where he charges big money to raise money for the party.
“He loves the fact it enables him to schmooze alongside politicians like Obama.
“The only reason he sold the porn company was so he could spend more time sucking up to these people without them getting wary of what he did for a living.”
Obama’s spokesman confirmed Bean’s donations but stressed he had also given money to the Republicans.
However, the Republican payouts were small, amounting to less than £1,000.

How about donating and you dont even know it !! I received a call from the fraud team of my credit card company and asked if I donated the full credit limit to Obama America Campaign. Since then I have spoken to two other people who also had money taken... who takes this money and surely they must know such large amounts will be looked into... the only donation I am going to make is to help me in this credit cruch, thank you very much. Lets hope they find out who it is as I have only ever used the card at two places in the UK...

Gordon, it's not newsworthy because he's contributed so little to the Repubs. Hell, I could contribute less than a 1000 dollars. They wouldn't even give me parking permits for that little.
It's certainly somewhat suspect because Obama had a rumored gay lover in his past, who suddenly died just after the story came out. Give up, just because it's aimed at a Democrat -- and a really horrible one -- doesn't make it a smear.
This guy's as bad as McCain, but more smug about it. Unfortunately he'll probably be elected merely because he's black and/or a Democrat, not because he gives a flying excrement about The People. Anyone who thinks he does is just deluding himself.

Why can't we hear about the 103 year old Catholic nun who is leaving Rome to return to Massachusetts to vote for Obama?

I don't think Obama cares where he gets his money from, i personally wouldn't trust him as far as i could throw him and i don't know why people can't see through him.
They'll be sorry if the elect him just because they don't want another Republican. The world and the US does not need a rabid left winger...trust me, this man will be dangerous for America. I had a bad feeling about Blair too - and look at the damage he did to our country.

And so the smears carry on. The last 3 lines said it all - "Obama's spokesman confirmed Bean's donations but stressed he had laso given money to the Republicans. However, the Republican payouts were small, amounting to less than £1000."
He hasn't earned his money illegally, the donations were declared etc.
I don't agree with how Bean made the money but he can spend it like this if he wishes.
Would this be a newsworthy story if it was titled "McCain and the gay porn baron"........
Thought not.
