Occupy Barack: Obama Has Raised More from Wall Street than All the GOP Contenders, Combined
This logo…



…is more accurate than we thought. Obama even raked in more cash from Bain Capital, which Mitt Romney founded, than Romney did.

Despite frosty relations with the titans of Wall Street, President Obama has still managed to raise far more money this year from the financial and banking sector than Mitt Romneyor any other Republican presidential candidate, according to new fundraising data.Obama’s key advantage is his ability to collect bigger checks from fewer donors, because he raises money for both his own campaign committee and for the Democratic National Committee, which will aid in his reelection effort. As a result, Obama has brought in more money from employees of banks, hedge funds and other financial service companies than all the other GOP candidates combined, according to a Washington Post analysis of contribution data.

Let’s see…Obama is the national student loan banker now, and he’s in Wall Street’s hip pocket. But the occupiers seem to want him re-elected.

More than 1 million people have donated money to help President Obama win a second term.
Obama does not accept campaign contributions from registered lobbyists or political action committees. None of the
Republican candidates has made a similar pledge.

Obama aides say topping one million donors by this point in the 2012 campaign puts them well ahead the record pace for
donor engagement they set four years ago.
The majority of contributors to Obama are small-dollar donors, giving $200 or less, according to the campaign’s Federal
Election Commission filings.  The average donation in the 3rd quarter was $56.

The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral
philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.

it's not the bobblehead in front......the masses just like ear tickling....kind of like Jersey Shore ........


...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.
