More than two years after Obama took office vowing to banish “special interests” from his administration, nearly 200 of his biggest donors have landed plum government jobs and advisory posts, won federal contracts worth millions of dollars for their business interests or attended numerous elite White House meetings and social events, an investigation by iWatch News has found.
Oh, he did.....and said a lot more than this.
Quote:
As a candidate, Obama spoke passionately about diminishing the clout of moneyed interests. Kicking off his presidential run on Feb. 10, 2007, he blasted “the cynics, the lobbyists, the special interests,” who had “turned our government into a game only they can afford to play.”
Of course, we are to believe that ONLY obama's lobbyists, cronies and special interests are "highly qualified" for the job.
Well worth the read....that displays the depth of HoaxNDupe.
0bam is the biggest crony capitalist we have ever seen. Other politicians engage in cronyism, but this guy has taken it to the stratosphere, with the sheer volume of taxpayer money he is throwing to his cronies.
GE is the perfect example, there CEO is one of 0bama's top administrative advisers on jobs. Not only did GE not pay any income taxes, but the receive federal subsides for green energy and health care, and we taxpayers are also paying $36 million for GE's early retirement, employee pension plan.
We all need to realize that all politicians do this. Democrats are just as guilty of being in bed with big business and funneling jobs and contracts to their contributors as Republicans are.

No argument about all do it. The difference is Obama said HE was NOT going to allow it.
That is why we have video tapes of Obama, and all the things he promised he would and would not do, on tape, for this reason!
