Wow. Not surprising. Actually pretty sad. F’in unions. I am reminded of Ayn Rand’s ‘We The Living.’
These lists are quite telling, especially when you look at people like John McCain. He seems to get much his $$$ from groups that like LIBERALS! There’s a surprise..not.
This table lists the top donors to this candidate in the 2008 election cycle.

And the left has their panties in a wad over the SCOTUS’s ruling about campaign financing because?????
[Well, because they know it sounds good to peeps not aware....but seriously...]
What digusts is the AFSME or whatever. These dues come from the taxpayer. As a taxpayer I have a problem with any of my money going to the campaigns of commie Obama and the likes of Nancy Pelosi. This is one thing the GOP can do if it ever gets into to power again is to ban this from happening. The American people really do not realize what is going on.
after a little cut/paste/work-in-excel:
Total elephant contributions : $624,653,063.00
Total jacka** contributions : $991,565,970.12
Gotta go to work. . . check it later.
Wow! Appears the producers of wealth seem to donate more to Repubs and the takers of wealth (UNIONS) donate to the Dems.
Whod a thunk it!!!
sarcasm off...
Gotta love Amway: 0% to Democrats. No fence sitters here.
