Major Corporate Donors to Leftist Think Tank

[Old-T]

Here's a good homework exercise for you: do the same for the major conservative think tanks.

But the lists look REALLY similar.

You seem to have zero concept of how the game works. Not saying I LIKE it, and neither do you have to, but at least acknowledge what reality is. Otherwise the people with the funny white jackets might be paying you a visit soon.

Doug Schoen, a Clinton backer and hardcore democrat, has this to say about Hillary...

Another major obstacle is Mrs. Clinton's foreign-policy record: She can point to no significant accomplishments as secretary of state. Now that her successor, John Kerry, has forged an interim agreement with Iran, good or bad, to limit its nuclear program, questions will inevitably be asked about why Mrs. Clinton failed to achieve anything on that front—or to strike a similar bargain with North Korea or make any progress with the Palestinians and Israelis.
Mrs. Clinton also still faces serious questions about the 2012 terror attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya. During the 2008 primary campaign, Mrs. Clinton said she was the candidate best equipped to answer the 3 a.m. emergency phone call. Americans will want to know how she answered that call in Libya.

A preemptive shot?

They are not my rules. That is exactly the part you don't get. It is the rules of the political game no matter what counrty, no matter what age, no matter what ideology.

Ninety percent or more of those companies contribute to conservative groups as well. The person in office doesn't care if you gave to their opponent--they only care whether or not you cave to THEM as well.

And I hate to burst your ideological bubble but pleanty of those companies also made contributions to TP candidates if they thought those candidates had any prayer of winning. Corporations like that are risk adverse and hedge their bets--or contributions in this case.

Just a quick question for you: when teddy cruz OFFICIALLY starts his run for president,are you REALLY that naive to think he's going to turn down corporate donations? Of course he won't. Can we expect you to be equally insensed when he accepts them? (I doubt it.)
