Here is a table of McCain's top political contributors.

Wow.

Most of
these are involved in the Subprime Scandal. There is banking, big
media, IS and IT for federal gov., foodservice for gov., energy giants,
big pharma, and large equity investment firms.

This is the kind of the information that could help
expose McCain as the true Washington insider he is, and NOT a defender of the Constitution and the people.

He takes his marching orders from.....:

flagged this story as Good Stuff

Funny how few stories exposing the negative aspects the Republicanzz seem to get flagged by Editors or Wranglers.  You think maybe there's a little bias here?  Maybe a small matter of where NP's capitalization comes from.

In fact it has been some time since NP got their last $10 million dollar capitalization, at which time owners said that they were going to take a chunk of that and actually pay contributors here.  

Funny how that money hasn't shown up in any of our pockets.

Mountaineer, I don't question the newsworthiness of this piece but you need to site your sources. A link to where you got this information from would suffice.

You're right, BigT. Also, Mountaineer, you need to re-file this under opinions, as you allege that McCain "takes his marching orders from....". If that's true, then Barack Obama takes his marching orders from indicted Syrian slumlord Tony Rezko. The fact that Obama got huge donations from Rezko is a fact, the statement that because of that he gets marching orders from him (if made) would be opinion-just as your McCain statements are opinions.

Also note, your Ron Paul pieces that are identified as press releases from the Paul campaign (according to your link and they are copies of those releases) need to be identified as press releases, vs. news. There's a difference.

Isn't it news that there is a Press Release? And my piece wasn't about Obama it was about McCain.

There is a difference between news and a press release. Check out some good j-sites.

 I was making a comparison using another candidate by referring to Obama.

Did McCain or Palin receive any political donations or contributions from the lobbyists, executives, or corporate officers of FreddieMac, FannieMae?
