Re: Price has $218,000

More importantly....check the monies that were received by Price within a few days before he voted on a piece of legislation. Money pours in days before and after a vote....and this is common and legal practice among all politicians....BUT.....it shows you who Congress really work for....not us, not the companies supporting them....but for themselves with the main motive of getting re-elected. Really....it's all about holding on to that position as long as possible.

Paul, as I said, Price has $218,000 from folks like farmers, tractor manufacturers and military contractors? Your problem with that? Oh...

You changed the subject from your original question to what? How you've lived off the government for years and are mad Price is helping you do so?

You welfare queen bootstrap types that have no problem going to the VA but don't want the rest of us to have healthcare like you AMAZE us all.

I'm a moderate. And you are?

Re: Price has $218,000

So giggle, no comment on the $10 million being spent at UNC-Chapell Hill to give six figure jobs to his friends. Everything seems personal to you. You cannot miss a chance for a personal slur. Keep it up so we can all see a true liberal progressive in action.

Re: Price has $218,000

Could you post what PAC's are paying off Price?

Thankfully, that's already been compiled for you bootstrap types at fec.gov.

But I understand if you'd like Ben to call and read it to you.

I'll get you started though. I actually know how to look things up and read.

Wow, looks like the usual commies. CropScience PAC, John Deere PAC, and the Lockheed Martin Employees' PAC are prominent.

Why do you think farmers, tractor manufacturers and military contractors hate America so much Paul? Do they just not watch Glen Beck?

Re: Price has $218,000

Looks like Price cannot say he is not in the pockets of the special interest. Could you post what PAC's are paying off Price? You have sttaed that Burr gets money from Insurance company PACS and executives. So who is Price getting paid by?

And please do not forget that $10,000,000 program that is supposed to help GI's from our wars but does nothing but pay many people 6 figure salries, all finance by pork from PRICE!

being aveteran myself I find Price to be both despicable and low when it comes to his self promoting at the expense of both taxpayers and veterans.
