Let's see donations from big industry and the oil companies to the right. The contributions to Dems would look like milk money by comparison.

Bd, thanks for stopping by and commenting.
I posted Multinational Oil and Gas Producers donations.
Read it and see that the donations are very close to only one Union's Donations.
The Oil and Gas industries donations are not even milk money compared to all the Unions Donations to the DemocRATS. I only posted a few Unions Donations there are just to many - and the ones posted are a just example. - May 22, 2011 at 6:00 PM
It serves always to distract the public councils and feeble the public administration. It agitates the community with ill founded jealousies and false alarms, kindles the animosity of one part against another, foments occasionally riot and insurrection. It opens the door to foreign influence and corruption, which find a facilitated access to the government itself through the channels of party passions.
It is important, likewise, that the habits of thinking in a free country should inspire caution in those entrusted with its administration to confine themselves with in their respective constitutional spheres, avoiding in the exercise of the powers of one department to encroach upon another. The spirit of encroachment tends to consolidate the powers of all departments in one and thus to create, whatever the form of government, a real despotism.
If in the opinion of the people the distribution or modification of the constitutional powers be in any particular wrong, let it be corrected by an amendment in the way which the Constitution designates. But let there be no change by usurpation; for though this, in one instance, may be the instrument of good, it is the customary weapon by which free governments are destroyed."
…George Washington’s Farewell Address…
