How about showing all who has taken money from oil companies. This is a poor display of one sided ignorant journalism. Having a welfare state is going to make everyones lives without any hope, and just change in our pockets. Obama has been a coward since the spill started and has shown now leadership.

The actual contribution from oil companies was quite small (although quite large for a Dem candidate). There are many more Senators and Reps who annually pull in contributions that make his seem like pocket change. Mark, yes it is definitely a DNC attack list. That is the point of it because these are elected officials who would rather support BP in this mess than the thousands of people in the Gulf region who are actually being affected by the spill. Last I checked both parties are guilty of doing things like this, it's part of campaigning and life in politics. This blog just happens to side with the party that supports clean energy in this country (since clean energy is paying the bills AND saving our planet).

As you stated the "Dems" provided this. Reads more like the DNC attack list. Please get your facts correct then lets have a two way dialog, not a one way blind attack. How handy for you.

Seems a bit disingenuous, this write up. But isn’t it Obama who got the most money from BP in his campaign, of anyone?
