obama just reported taking in 32 million in january. If Obama loses, it won't be due to a lack of funds. |
And $21 million of that was from finance companies as payoff for BO's vote against a 30% limit on credit card interest rates. The sky's the limit now. |
Ba is as usual full of it. He also posted that Ron Paul was leading in 22 states on Yahoo's Political Dashboard. What he failed to disclose is that he was talking about the Yahoo Buzz, which is essentially an online poll.
By the way, Obama's donations are from individual donors who often donated $10-20.
So much for fact checking. |

Why would you expect fact checking from a Ron Paul supporter? If they actually DID check facts (instead of putting their own spin on them) they'd realize it's a hopeless cause and a waste of time and money. |

Wrong. As I explained the last time you tried spinning this, the Dashboard is an accumulation of primaries and caucuses already held plus the average of dozens of different polls by multiple pollsters calculated by RealClearPolitics, NOT internet polls.

Now, those are bold-faced lies:
The top industries supporting Barack Obama are:
1 Lawyers/Law Firms $10,426,240
2 Retired $5,833,088
3 Securities & Investment $5,766,851
4 Real Estate $2,948,998
5 Misc Business $2,663,985
6 Education $2,660,466
7 Business Services $2,606,598
8 TV/Movies/Music $2,546,425
9 Misc Finance $1,732,590
10 Health Professionals $1,672,076
11 Printing & Publishing $1,156,646
12 Commercial Banks $1,106,946
13 Computers/Internet $1,092,692
14 Civil Servants/Public Officials $894,361
15 Non-Profit Institutions $672,388
16 Insurance $545,245
17 Retail Sales $510,419
18 Other $486,097
19 Hospitals/Nursing Homes $440,061
20 Construction Services $407,872
Note: most of those #1 law firms work for financial institutions. I don't check facts? I have never posted anything as fact that I cannot back up. All you can do is hurl insults and disinform. |

While they may be in those professions, they are individual contributors, the same as in Ron Paul's campaign. You make it blatently sound as if the money is coming from the firms. That is simply NOT true.
It says the following right on the page you quote from:
| Quote: |
| The organizations themselves did not donate, rather the money came from the organization's PAC, its individual members or employees or owners, and those individuals' immediate families. Organization totals include subsidiaries and affiliates. |
Stop misrepresenting the facts. Creditablity: Zero |

DeNiro supports Obama.
That clinches it. |
