He wrote about flying in private jets, who was flying him around in private jets? He doesn't own one, and the gov't doesn't do that for him.
Don't you liberals automatically associate that kind of behavior with being in the pockets of someone?
OR ARE YOU HYPOCRITES?

And when did he take those flights?
He says he instituted a policy after he became a senator that he wouldn't fly on corporate jets.
"I started realizing that when you get in the habit of taking corporate jets and eating dinner with lobbyists, you start getting detached from the people that you represent," he says. "One of the things that I'm always worried about is starting to represent Washington to my constituents instead of representing my constituents in Washington."

Are you talking about the Senator Obama from Illinois? About every black person there and everywhere is handing him money to defeat the powers that be right now. So what he is no worse than the rest now is he?
Give him time though he has only been in for a short time.
Plus he is half white? Also raised in Hawaii, until he was a teenager was moved to Chicago Illinois? research his history?
Jesse Jackson supporter as well, as a dozen other groups. Flying in private jets? So what are you jealous? He should be secure if he makes a dent in society at all his life is in danger all the time he is in that office from the nutso folks out there. Not you of course.

I don't think Obama will be the candidate in 08 so who cares, all politicians are corrupt, it takes 100 million to run for president maybe that's the problem

probably small groups of citizens...many small groups...a bit nobler than a few rich guys in your pocket like recently...so you are saying that since Dem politicians aren't rich, they can't use the money of the millions of followers, but a rich man can use his amassed wealth to do as he pleases? that's not quite a level playing field...but you have not provided any facts that he is even overly using (or even using at all) corporate jets....that's what you say to make a more convincing argument, but it doesn't make it true....at least show a right wing clip or link

Abramoff, yeah that's who it is, they let him out so that he could introduce the clown to his D.C. cronies and show him the ropes.
I am not affiliated with any political party, nor am I a hypocrite.
