Raising millions to get the “big money” out of politics.
Now pay your taxes - the government is broke. :)
Just raking in (taking back) the stimulus money given to the unions.
The slush stimulus con job in action.
The mother’s milk of democrat politicians.
This is exactly why public union collective bargaining is no different than dealing with the devil and has to come to an end.
Commies certainly have big bucks.

Obama has rewarded his best fund-raisers from his 2008 campaign, from handing out ambassadorships —
According to the Center for Public Integrity, one-third of the Obama 2008 campaign’s 556 bundlers were appointed by Obama to jobs or advisory posts. Of the mega fund-raisers — those raising more than $500,000 in 2008, fully 80 percent landed “key administration” posts — many on advisory panels. According to CPI, 24 bundlers are serving as ambassadors.
A few? So I guess the rest were the FILTHY RICH that the 0media keep hidden and DON'T pay higher taxes because they're 0bama's donors?
are they sure it wasn’t 666 fund raisers?
Party of the RICH?
The list is dominated by Jews.
Laundered money from George Soros and foreign governments.
Bundling or not, all the names and amounts contributed must still be revealed to insure none went over the limit
0bama did this last round by having thousands Of unnamed donators under $500. Of course, $10 million would have been donated in a series of ‘minor’ donations from anonymous sources
Don’t forget all the bundlers over in the West Bank and Gaza...
That would be refreshing at least.
Somewhere down the road people will take a serious look at these people and why they want this hateful and incompetent man to be our president.
Amazing the Stockholm Syndrome ,is alive and well,they just LOVE people that hate their Guts!
