Below is a list of the senator supporting S.510 and the amount of special interest payola each of them received. Please note that RHINO Saxby Chambliss from GA received the largest payoff. And lets not forget our other RHINO senator Johnny Isakson. A proud day for Georgia.
The first figure is the amount received from groups supporting S.510 and the second figure is the amount from groups opposing S.510. So I guess its a no lose situation.
