Congressmen sponsor bills that benefit themselves and their families financially.

"Those lawmakers were among 73 members of Congress who have sponsored or co-sponsored legislation in recent years that could benefit businesses or industries in which either they or their family members are involved or invested, according to a Washington Post analysis. The findings emerge from an examination by The Post of financial disclosure forms and public records for all 535 members of the House and Senate."

If they included cronies in this analysis, they've find every bill is designed to financially benefit the politician, his family or his cronies. This is the real function of government. Everything else is just a charade. This is why the easiest way to become a millionaire is to become a congressman.

Goldman Sachs abandons Obama and switches to Romney.

"Prompted by what they call regulatory attacks on their business and personal attacks on their character, executives and employees of Goldman Sachs have largely abandoned Mr. Obama and are now the top sources of money to presidential candidate Mitt Romney and the Republican Party.

In the four decades since Congress created the campaign-finance system, no company's employees have switched sides so abruptly, moving from top supporters of one camp to the top of its rival, according to a Wall Street Journal analysis of campaign-finance data compiled by the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics.

Employees at Goldman donated more than $1 million to Mr. Obama when he first ran for president. This election, they have given the president's campaign $136,000—less than Mr. Obama has collected from employees of the State Department. The employees have contributed nothing to the leading Democratic super PAC supporting his re-election.

By contrast, Goldman employees have given Mr. Romney's campaign $900,000, plus another $900,000 to the super PAC founded to help him."

Flip a coin. A real coin.

Black actress supports Romney. Liberals attack her.

Obama learned a lot of things from Clinton like how to solicit illegal campaign donations from foreigners. He did a good job of that four years ago, so why would be expect anything different this time?

Michelle Malkin reprints a number of previous Obama campaign donation scandals. The country yawns. Nobody cares when Obama lies, cheats or steals. He's Obama. And when I say country, I mean Obama's accomplice press.
