I won't speak for BH personally - but i have plenty to say:


1.) $213,000 to Obama huh? So one thing your funny little article doesnt point out is in which time frame was it donated? $213,000 over 2 years? 3 years? 5 years? How long? 6 months?

2.) $213,000 ???? Thats a lota monero to someone like me and i presume you. But to a politician.....$213,000? Are they buying him LUNCH?

3.) $213,000???? Lets compare it to the O.P.:

McCain Has Raised More Than $2.1 Million From The Oil And Gas Industry, Including More Than $1.1 Million In The Month Of June. According to the Center for Responsive Politics, John McCain received $1,039,768 in contributions from the oil and gas industry between January 2007 and May 2008

Now we have some guidelines. And.......here i thought the gas companies were hurting for money? I thought they NEEDED those government subsidies because they DEPENDED on them? Yet....they can afford to give $1.1 million dollars to ONE politician in the month of June? They can give an additional $1,039,768 in the 17 months before the 1.1 million in June?

Gee. I wonder who's backing John McCain?


4.) This article is about John McCain. Bringing Obama into it does nothing but derail. If you want to talk about Obama's donations- do us all a favor and start your own thread Obama has nothing to do w/ this discussion...but since you refuse to acknowledge that - i guess we have no option but to play by your rules. In either event, you've been proven silly


213,000 compared to 2.1 million.

Do you need a calculator?

"Big oil" in McCain's pocket is a scary issue but something scarier is his inability to see ahead as to why offshore drilling is a bad decision for the long term. I can see another Exxon spill in our future if McCain becomes Pres.
