Obama continues to have one hand in the cookie jar taking what he pleases and the other hand is pointing a finger at the very group he is getting the cookies from and putting them down. Just like Goldman Sachs. Newsflash crats....OBAMA IS A CROOK AND A LIAR!!

Newsflash - unless the - way

campaigns are financed in this country changes, there will always be lobbyists and big donors, and politicians will always take the contributions.

I'm sorry but if I were a politician - sm

I would do what I could to refuse payments from groups that I don't agree with. Obviously Obama has a problem with drilling for oil...so why take money from an oil company? That is why Washington is so corrupt nowadays and another reason why we need to clean house.
They're all alike. The house will never be - clean

by all means. Did you ever wonder what would happen if nobody voted. If not one single person showed up at the polls......
I just don't foresee changing it though. - sm

I will admit that Obama isn't the only politician taking money from groups he later bashes and uses for scapegoats. Most..if not all...politicians do this. How do we stop it? Seriously...just like politicians voting for raises and getting a salary every year for a position they no longer hold. If I quit my job, I don't continue to get paid. So why are they? I'm sorry but all politicians are crooks...pubs, crats, black, white, etc.....they are all crooks.

It doesn't make it right - nm

Unfortunately, there will probably be a new - group

military officials to weigh in on his administration's decision in January to send $400 million in cash to Iran. After all, Iran is the world's leading state sponsor of terrorism, and terrorists prefer cash to wire payments because it's so difficult to track.

This is a very long article. I only posted a little of it. You'll have to follow the link for the rest. Here's a bit of good news for the Washington finger-waggers who think executive compensation has gotten out of hand: A survey of 81 big companies shows that CEO pay dropped by 8.6 percent last year. Now for the worrisome twist: The cash portion of their compensation rose 8.3 percent. That's a sign that companies are de-emphasizing long-term incentives for their top guys, a par ...

Just saw the list you posted thurs of wealthiest politicians. I have no quarrel with the opinion that some politicians enrich themselves in office.  My concern is with the SuperPACs being unleashed in this election.  SuperPACs are making ads that are influencing elections.  Newt was doing well until Mitt's SuperPAC spent millions on ads. His popularity then dropped rapidly.  The SuperPACs are backed by big money whose goal is to get what THEY want, not what is good ...
