Who would've thunk it. Obama and his cronies are fleecing the public.

WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama's push for a national health care overhaul is providing a financial windfall in the election offseason to Democratic consulting firms that are closely connected to the president and two top advisers.

Coalitions of interest groups running at least $24 million in pro-overhaul ads hired GMMB, which worked for Obama's 2008 campaign and whose partners include a top Obama campaign strategist. They also hired AKPD Message and Media, which was founded by David Axelrod, a top adviser to Obama's campaign and now to the White House. AKPD did work for Obama's campaign, and Axelrod's son Michael and Obama's campaign manager David Plouffe work there.

That's an odd comparison. That was the point of your post wasn't it?

At a time when we have someone saying they are going to "change" the culture in Washington, and then claim they are going to reign in the drug and health industries, funneling money to them is a little different than the faux outrage over a defense contract.

The democrats whined for 8 years about how corrupt President George W Bush was. What do they do? They elect a man who is many times worse than they could ever have portrayed President George W Bush as. Substance and character meant nothing to Obama supporters.
