Obama sells public offices to top donors

Once it starts going downhill, the flood always ensues.

"Included in the leak was a list of high-profile donors from 2008 and the ambassadorship they received in exchange for their large donation to the DNC and Barack Obama’s Organizing For Action (OFA). Essentially, Obama was auctioning off foreign ambassador positions and other office positions while Hillary Clinton served as secretary of state. The largest donor listed at contributions totaling over $3.5 million, Matthew Barzun, served as U.S. Ambassador to Sweden from 2009 to 2011, served as President Obama’s National Finance Chair during his 2012 reelection campaign, and now serves as U.S. Ambassador to the United Kingdom.

The second largest donor, Julius Genachowski, donated just under $3.5 million to the DNC and OFA, and in exchange was appointed chairman of the FCC by Obama in 2009.

The third largest donor on the list, Frank Sanchez, donated just over $3.4 million and exchange was appointed to Undersecretary of Commerce for International Trade by Obama in 2010.

I simply refuse to believe anyone from the democratic party would take part in such corruption.

I'd be willing to wager thats a common practice for both parties.

If the things said are true then you can be guaranteed this is the defense they will use.

It will either be a specific excuse like "So and so has also done this". Or it will be my favorite vague excuse "that's politics". I just love that, I love how shady behavior can just be shuffled aside because *we expect these f*ckers* to behave like this.
