Obama: Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae, & Lehman Brother
If you watched the news last night, you saw Senator Barack Obama criticizing Senator McCain for being obligated to the financial industry which as we all know is in a deep crisis. I actually thought it was a good attack until I did some research.
It turns out it is Barack who is in the back-pocket of the financial industry according to data from the Center for Responsive Politics. As a United State Senator, Barack took over $170,000 from Fannie Mae officials. The junior Senator ranked number 2 in donations behind Chairman Chris Dodd.
During this Presidential campaign Obama has taken $370,000 from Lehman Brother officials. On the other hand, McCain has only received $117,000. Goldman Sachs people are also big contributors to Barack. They donated $691,000 to him while McCain got $208,000.
Barack claims that voters are going to get more of the same if you elect Senator McCain. However, it is Barack who is more obligated to the financial industry that is causing this economic crisis not Senator McCain.

What a horrible, depressed economy when the candidate of gloom and doom (sorry, hope and change) is close to raising $400 million for his campaign and is having a dinner for $28,500 a plate contributors. I hope those gamblers haven't taken away from the profits at "The Boat."
Barack Obama and Joe Biden, the candidates of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, whose former managers now are economic advisers to Obama's campaign, either to tell him mistakes that have cost the American people or to give him new scams to further fool the American people.
