What does this tell you about our presidential candidates?
It tells us what is blatantly obvious, that ALL the other candidates apart from Ron Paul are in the pockets of big business.
Contrary to popular belief, Obama IS funded by lobbying groups. None of the 'big three' are not tainted by commercial money. It means that they are more interested in looking after the interests of the businesses that fund them than of the American people.
Are you aware that $1.2 trillion has 'gone missing' since the Iraqi war began $1.2 tr!!!!!!!! How much is that for every household in the country? What could YOU have done with that money instead of it being 'lost' in the waste, fraud and abuse of the war. The only losers are the American taxpayers, you're being fleeced by your Government, the people that are supposed to look after YOUR interests, not the contractors paid to provide services for the military in an illegal war.
Haliburton is one of the main beneficiaries of such contracts, Y'know who's a major shareholder in Haliburton? George W Bush.
Reply:This doesnt tell us much. The truth of the matter is that candidates are responible for rainsing funds to finance their race, by any means necessary. They all want to win. The good thing is there is only one position. Not like any other job, you truly must be able to last til the end of june.
Reply:It definitely tells me Ron Paul is the only one who hasn't sold out. :) Great question. Have to add that I am writing in Ron Paul this fall. Gotta stand for something!
Reply:Too bad we hear very little from our armed forces.
We sure hear plenty from the banks...in their behind the
curtain sort of way.
Reply:Sorry not much.
Reply:It's nice to see that Americans, private and institutional are interested in their government and are willing to give money to help in democratic elections. I am about to sent 100.00 to McCain.
