Scott Patton Tyre employed by Capitol Navigators Inc. from Wisconsin who works for the Business Services industry (Fortress Investment?) is a bundler for John Edwards and has raised an amount that is not listed.

Not quite as bad but he’s still lying or misleading the public if he answers, “As I don’t, either,” when asked about federal lobbyist money.

Hillary Clinton takes money from lobbyists. She actually has federal lobbyist bundlers who work for the lobbyists industry donating to her. I am not going to go through her individually because any decent Democrat would never think she refuses money from lobbyists. If you did think she refused money, go here to find out she really does accept money from federal lobbyists too.

Search Hillary Clinton, check off Federal Lobbyists, and then click Search.

So, the next time Barack Obama talks about cleaning up campaign financing in America with legislation he proposed, or the next time John Edwards casually tries to get away with people thinking he’s serious about corporate greed even though he is not distancing himself from the corporations themselves by keeping federal lobbyists completely out of his campaign, you’ll know they are lying.

Now, there’s one half hour until the debate. Go to WhiteHouseforSale.org where I got all my information and read through some of the information posted. That way you can see through the lies and half-truths you hear tonight.
