From our friend Z who always does all the digging to get to the FACTS:...
I am sick of Liberals suggesting that Conservatives are funded by special interest groups and are whores to business. Open Secrets has gathered data from the Federal Elections Commission that tells it like it is. We need to use this information to smash down the ignorant Leftist footsoldiers that parrot the mantra.

thanks for all your work on the blog site!!
Obamacare must be a winfall for the healthcare industry...otherwise why such a discrepancy in donations? We knew it would be a boon to everyone EXCEPT for the American citizen/patient. What a crock.
GOSH, WHAT A WHOPPING DIFFERENCE IN CONTRIBUTIONS! CERTAINLY THE "BIG MONEY"
HAS BEEN BEHIND THE DEMOS WHO WANT TO NATIONALIZE THEIR BUSINESSES? NUTS!!!
Imagine the dirty deals that are being made behind the scenes with these industrial moguls....DC has become Sodom & Gomorrah with all the corruption, lieing and stealing going on. AT OUR EXPENSE.
The members of Congress who are up for reelection are dropping like flies. We need an ENTIRE revamping of government. I really think'we should
think about having our government composed of people who have real jobs and they can meet in Washington, D.C. every other weekend to vote on
IMPORTANT issues and paid per diem.
