There are more politicians that I haven't listed that are in that link.. and probably explanation into a few of them better than I did.

Point being. It does happen.. and it is common.
First of all: Judicial Watch - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Judicial Watch" is an organization run by Richard Mellon Scaife, a conservative billionaire. It does a decent job of pretending to be nonpartisan though.

The anecdotes about Barack Obama don't seem to be so much corruption, as bad decisions, where he didn't realize how it looked. I mean, he bought $5000 worth of stock of a company that his actions later benefited. But really, would he have knowingly done that for only the increase in value of $5000 worth of stock? I mean, the amount he made on that deal was probably less than I make in a week. Considering that Obama received practically nothing from his supposedly corrupt deals, I'm not sure why he's on the list. Unless of course, whoever made the list wants to make him look bad.
