Congress on Sale! Congresspeople put their mouths where their money is

If money talks, it is positively screaming in the health care debate. $80,831,142.00 in political contributions from individuals, industries, and political action committees from the insurance, big pharma, hospitals and health professionals on one side to retirees on the other, have contributed heavily in this election cycle to make sure that politicians are hearing them loud and clear.

In 2008, Bill Clinton, John McCain, Off The Bus, Republicans on October 31, 2008 at 7:54 am
