Charles at LGF sends word that left-leaning Google has now registered a political action committee. The Guardian writes:
Google’s PAC will be run by a five-person board of directors who will be guided by the recommendations of an advisory committee made up of Google employees. It will raise its funds through voluntary donations from staff.
But judging from the fact that in the past Google employees have been involved with leftwing groups such as MoveOn.org, it will be very interesting to see where that cash is headed.
As noted last year:
Google employees gave $207,650 to federal candidates for last year's elections, up from just $250 in 2000 when it was still a start-up. And 98% went to Democrats, the biggest share among top tech donors, a new USA TODAY campaign finance analysis shows.
More on the Google/MoveOn.org alliance from the WSJ here.
Remember the Google corporate motto? "Don't be evil:"
Yes, Google is another dupe of the left. We expected this position and activity.
Their only saving grace is they have a large stockpile of Michelle photos.
So, what is a search engine that is NOT google?
Gracias
Lycos, Dogpile, MSN, Comcast all have engines. Hopefully, someone will soon rival google for its breadth.

The breath-taking stupidity of newly rich capitalists supporting socialists for office always amazes.
With Google history can be easily revised...
