while this is a whole lot of change, it hardly represents change in the usual politics and the usual players...
zubair ahmed 500 khaleel ahmed 2000 both charged with conspiring to kill, kidnap or maim persons outside of the united states....while this is change that bo does not want to speak of, it merely trumps the clintons twenty year infatuation with illegal cash from the chinese in exchange for mirv delivery technology....

Spunk, you'd vote for obama even if osama bin laden were funding his campaign.

Nice try grumpy  This table lists the top donors to this candidate in the 2008 election cycle. The organizations themselves did not donate , rather the money came from the organization's PAC, its individual members or employees or owners, and those individuals' immediate families. Organization totals include subsidiaries and affiliates.Because of contribution limits, organizations that bundle together many individual contributions are often among the top donors to presidential candidates. These contributions can come from the organization's members or employees (and their families). The organization may support one candidate, or hedge its bets by supporting multiple candidates. Groups with national networks of donors - like EMILY's List and Club for Growth - make for particularly big bundlers. http://www.opensecrets.org/pres08/contrib.php?cycle=2008&cid=N00009638Since Obama doesn't accept money from Pac's and since it's illegal for corporations to donate to candidates ... then what you're reporting is people who work for these corporations contributed money to a candidate. Shocking!

Bush goes bumbling along, grinning and spewing moronic one-liners, as though nobody understands what a colossal failure he has been. I fear to the depth of my being that John McCain is just like him. Jack Cafferty

Shocking! a distinction without a difference. in short we just no longer call ourselves pacs or lobbyists
