Patrick Kennedy confirms that which only the psychophants will deny… the
Obama administration is corrupt:
Patrick KennedyAccess to the Obama White House is in direct correlation
to the amount of money donated to the president’s reelection effort and the
Democratic party, the New York Times reports today.
The Times reports: “those who donated the most to Mr. Obama and the
Democratic Party since he started running for president were far more likely
to visit the White House than others. Among donors who gave $30,000 or less
, about 20 percent visited the White House, according to a New York Times
analysis that matched names in the visitor logs with donor records. But
among those who donated $100,000 or more, the figure rises to about 75
percent. Approximately two-thirds of the president’s top fund-raisers in
the 2008 campaign visited the White House at least once, some of them
numerous times.”
But the most explosive allegation in the news story comes from former
Democratic congressman Patrick Kennedy, son of the late Ted Kenney, who
calls what the Obama White House is doing “quid pro quo.”
Patrick J. Kennedy, the former representative from Rhode Island, who
donated $35,800 to an Obama re-election fund last fall while seeking
administration support for a nonprofit venture, said contributions were
simply a part of “how this business works.”
“If you want to call it ‘quid pro quo,’ fine,” he said. “At the
end of the day, I want to make sure I do my part.”
The piece goes on:
And Kennedy admits that folks in the White House are checking out the
donor records:
“I know that they look at the reports,” he said, referring to
records of campaign donations. “They’re my friends anyway, but it won’t
hurt when I ask them for a favor if they don’t see me as a slouch.”
So Kennedy is aware of the corruption, and doesn’t really see the problem.
Hell, more than likely, neither would half the country.
We get the leaders we deserve. | P*********0
