just so i'm clear, the $50 I sent to the Obama campaign, was that a bribe or a donation?

I dont know, was it a bribe or a donation?

I call them bribes because this is the same way we got the income tax and federal reserve, except it was more direct.

So you donated money with expectations of favorable and/or beneficial results?

And major money grubbing corp wouldn't do the same?

Everyone has their reasons. 400k buys alot more than 25 dollars of course, thats not taking into account the bribes Obama, McCain and the rest receive in the form of gifts, or in foreign accounts, or just straight under the table.

Well, my 25.00 bribe was I guess so Obama wouldn't outsource my social security to the stock market, does that make sense? John McCain would try that.

Pretty clear Wallstreet isn't afraid of Obama taking all their money is you ask me.. lol..

Pretty clear as well who Wallstreet DIDN'T want to succeed in the primaries.. lol. =)
