Mrl710, you know better! More misinformation. Obama lied, reversed his position on taxpayer funded PUBLIC financing. This was put in place as a method of giving all presidential candidate an equal purse of money. By doing so, it eliminates much of the special interest and big corporation lobbyist influence. What Obama is crafty at is excepting large contributions funnelled through special interests, lobbyists, down to smaller and less obvious 'contributors'. 527 Organizations are big contributors to Obama's campaign.
Do you own research and stop believing only what you wish to believe. Obama doesn't get as many direct checks from big corporations, but he still gets plenty of special interest support. For example, Obama is endorsed by one of the biggest labor unions in the country. An endorsement like this means they will spend and contribute millions and millions of dollars to influence the political process; hence corruption.
I find it interesting that the Obama supporters here would ignore the fact that he lied and resort to making excuses. This is the same kind of behavior that Bush jr, Cheney, Rice, Bush Sr, Clinton, and a long list of other Presidents and cabinets have been commiting.
If Obama is truly a man of change, why does he continue to behave like the old guard, and most importantly, why are many of us willing to make excuses when he does it, but criticize the white, corrupt establishment, when they are guilty of it?
Any Obama supporter have the courage to answer these questions? Change is not coming...just a half white UncleTom with the same ole agenda.
