Can't understand why( Sarcasm) I understand he is an enviornmentalist. Jeez, what is Bush thinking?

[stephenjohnbanker]

Nice job, Jorge. Tomorrow you and daddy can nominate Bill clinton for a cabinet position.......that is if daddy is done fawning over him.

[Paleo Conservative]

The nominee, Henry M. Paulson Jr., chief executive of Goldman Sachs

This story confirms my first impression. Anyone important at Goldman Sachs is a big time left wing DemocRAT.

[samadams2000]

Geez. I wont say it. Ill just suck it up again. Emily's list?

Actually, he has given a lot to President Bush and Republicans- I guess they must have had a problem with their search engine.

2002-2004 Cycles (note, some other Henry Paulson's mixed in)

Selective reporting?

[philsfan24]

emily's list? you have got to be kidding me. what a disgrace.

[mnehring]

1998 Cycle shows the same pattern as my last post, mostly Republican causes with token Dems thrown in- with the exception of the League of Conservation Voters, the large contributions went to Republicans.

*** Note, just noticed the 'League of Conservation Voters' donations were by his wife.

Note they say Mrs. Henry Paulson Jr., not Henry Paulson Jr.

I wonder if the Emily List donations are the same?

Looks like bad reporting on the issue..

[FreedomNeocon]

Meh... I'm noticing a trend here of a BIG push on articles that might 'piss off' the true bush haters and posers around here.

I will bet that 90% of the people in this tread don't know a single thing about the guy other than what the OP clipped together.

Furthermore I'll bet that quite a few don't care, and won't try to learn about him, but only clicked the thread because it looked like a good chance to cry and whine and complain as some kind of sick, demented, catharsis.

That is, those that aren't the obvious dimocrap trolls that I always see in these threads.

[Antoninus]

Emily's List is utterly disqualifying.

May as well donate to "Americans for Dead Babies."

[Cicero]

I suppose his political beliefs don't matter if he's competent at the Treasury.

But I confess that I find anyone who donates to Emily's List despicable.

Rich man donating to the baby killers, to clear all that excess population out of the way. Despicable.

[sure_fine]

can he do the job?

[Defiant]

Bob Rubin was a left wing rat, but I think he did a better job than any of Bush's appointees so far.

[no dems]

He gave to Emily's List? Oh my goodness.

[Siena Dreaming]

but there is no record of his donating to Bush.

This statement from the article seems to be flatly untrue.

[deport]

Is this the one and the same..... Henry Paulson, Jr.

At this point in Bush's career, I can't believe anyone would be suprised about this.

My thread from earlier today. Expect more tax favors for the abolishers of private property.

[kittymyrib]

Paulson is for Kyoto and gives to the environazis, supports abortion groups, gives campaign contributions to Democrats including the slimy Christopher Dodd, and is praised by Chuck Schumer today. It seems W has put another viper in the big tent.
