Drudge links to an Open Secrets.org site with an article showing Goldman Sachs as one of the top volunteers to the Obama campaign. Drudge asks the questions, "will he return the contributions?" My first thought was NOT!
When I looked at the Open Secrets site my thoughts went from Goldman Sachs to how many of the top donors were universities. Granted many of these are bundled contnributions, it still shows what a liberal bias our universities have. And of course they get much of their funding through government grants.
Here's the list:
University of California $1,591,395 (from a state so far in debt!)
Goldman Sachs $994,795
Harvard University $854,747
Microsoft Corp $833,617
Google Inc $803,436
Citigroup Inc $701,290
JPMorgan Chase & Co $695,132
Time Warner $590,084
Sidley Austin LLP $588,598
Stanford University $586,557 (another California university and I think his brother in law is there.)
National Amusements Inc $551,683
UBS AG $543,219
Wilmerhale Llp $542,618
Skadden, Arps et al $530,839
IBM Corp $528,822
Columbia University $528,302 (another elitist university and I'm thinking Columbia School of Journalism, would it be listed separately?)
Morgan Stanley $514,881
General Electric $499,130
US Government $494,820 (looking out for the next boss?)
Latham & Watkins $493,835
