"This is a hard one to believe. GE, again, spends more on lobbying than any other company. Its lobbyists include Linda Daschle, whose husband Tom was the Senate Majority Leader and today is a confidant of Obama. Former senior Ways & Means Committee member Jim McCrery is a lobbyist for GE as is former House Democratic Leader Dick Gephardt. Former Senators Trent Lott and John Breaux are GE lobbyists. Immelt has been an official advisor to Obama through his whole presidency."

I don't blame GE or the Presidency, but let's at least start showing a level of honesty, even Texas knows big business makes political movements easier to control. Don't you guys get it, it's not the special treatment that people are pissed about anymore, it's the blatant lying that is doing it. Lobbyists exist to buy special treatment. It's just marketed with a sugar coating.
