FTC drops investigation of Google less than a week after company exec holds Obama fundraiser
Big Government ^ | 10/29/10 | Ken Boehm

Yesterday, the White House blog asked “as special interest billionaires continued to pour secret donations of millions of dollars each into front groups supporting Republicans, we asked the obvious question: “What do they expect in return?“” They added, “Congressional Republicans have made clear that lobbyists have a seat at the table even when they are formulating their party’s broader strategy and governing vision.”

People in glass White Houses shouldn’t throw stones.

Are you suggesting there might be a connection?

If this can be proven , it might cause a big Ruckus. If not, the only people that will be certain there is a connection are people who hate Obama already. It won’t change anyone else’s mind without some firm evidence. A suspicious timeline isn’t enough for impeachment - though it might be enough for Congressional investigations, once the House is in GOP hands.

Punishing the enemy.

Rewarding the friends.

All part of socialism and communism.

Now Obamunism.

It is going to get worse before it gets better.
