Facing a request by Justice Department prosecutors for a 16-month sentence, author and filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza rejected their assertion that he hasn’t taken responsibility for his campaign-finance violations.
“I am contrite for exceeding the campaign finance limit, but I am not contrite for being a public critic of the Obama administration,” D’Souza told WND in an exclusive interview Friday.
In a court filing Wednesday, prosecutors argued D’Souza’s continued criticism of Obama in many media interviews after pleading guilty to campaign finance violations demonstrated an unwillingness to take responsibility for his crime.
As WND reported May 20, D’Souza pleaded guilty to using “straw donors.” He reimbursed friends $10,000 for donating to Wendy Long’s U.S. Senate campaign in 2012, circumventing the $5,000 federal limit for individual contributions. Long has been a friend since the 1980s, when both attended Dartmouth College.

If only he had bundled billions of Chinese dollars for Obama everything would have been fine.
