When my spouse and I win the mega millions tonight, we're going to look into that pay to play thing ourselves.

But this isn't anything new. Out whole system is screwed up. Money talks. If you have $, you have influence. The rest of us get pandered to but no results. We need campaign reform in a big way - politicians above the local level (and maybe even there in some cities) are bought and paid for. It's a joke. And the people who have the power to change the system are the very ones who benefit from it. And we let them - because we refuse to cooperate on anything. They pit us, the people, against each other and laugh all the way to the bank.

Did you vote for Barack Obama? Wasn't he supposed to represent "Hope" and "Change?"

No, liberals don't get to run from it that easily. Just admit that Barack Obama is the biggest peddler of lies to grace the White House since Richard Nixon. Once you get that off your chest, you might feel better.

No more excuses for this rotten President.

Business as usual. I remember when Barney Frank (of the House Banking Scandal of the 80's had a semi-brothel bing run out of his DC apt.

I listened to several dozen repetions from Obama, and I am certain he actually said "Dope and Mange", and probably referred to himself and Joey when doing so.

Obama makes Harding look like a saint, yet the liberals love this corrupt tyrant. It show how idiotic one can be when political partisanship overtakes reason and common sense.

$500K? That is a pretty good deal. However, it only costs $25-$50K to bribe judges in Illinois. Obama learned from the best. Is it any wonder that his Senate seat was being sold as well?

The left should be embarrassed and ASHAMED of Obama. They have lost any touch with reality and assume that corruption for a democrat is perfectly fine. Libs- doesn't your neck hurt from "looking the other way" so often?

Actually this is common practice with any president. Give baby Bush $500K and he would let you jump on the presidential bed.

When I heard even MSNBC criticizing Obama for this, I knew this would get interesting. Such blatant corruption. Not even trying to hide it anymore. This is the person our country voted into office???? Sad really.

Any evidence of such? There's documented proof of such "practice" with Barack Obama. I'm interested in seeing the evidence for Bush. Got any?
