Show Me The Money
Sorry for the cliche, but it aptly describes a site from opensecrects.org, which details the total contributions for the 100 biggest givers in American politics since 1989. You may see the full list here, and here's a preview of the top five: American Fedn of State, County & Municipal Employees: $33,687,008BTW, none of the top five lean Republican in their giving.

Are those red Democrat things asses? Er, excuse me, donkeys? Posted by: Seth at July 5, 2003 01:22 AM seems the Democrats in the USA get donations from unions (IBEW for example) just like the Democrats in canada do. Posted by: Bubba at July 5, 2003 02:43 AM In that companies and unions are social/financial constructs (not actual entities), they should be barred from making any donations at all. All contributions should be by individuals and all contributions should be a matter of public record. No limits, no restrictions. If money won elections, Ross Perot and Steve Forbes would still be running this country, but it’s not that simple. Money is not corrupting, any more than food is fattening or tests are stupid. The great tendency in the socialist state is to blame inanimate objects for the sins of the actors. Absolve everyone of their actions and forbid certain conduct lest someone hurt himself. It is an infantile approach to human interaction foisted on us by elites who “know” better than the great unwashed. As William Penn said, “To deny a man his folly is to create a nation of fools.” We’re on our way. Posted by: torpedo_eight at July 5, 2003 10:41 AM Torpedo_eight I like this guy. Yeah, what he said.
