[QUOTE="Hobbes, post: 1609369, member: 3371"] Here's an interesting little factoid I found today: Audrey McClendon, CEO of natural gas giant Chesapeake Energy. Since 2008, he has doled out $158,600 in political donations to both parties, the majority going to the GOP. (Start from the early 1990s and the sum of his personal donations shoots up to $329,000). A sample: He gave $28,500 to the National Republican Congressional Committee in 2007, [B]while at the same time giving the maximum ($2,300) to the campaigns of Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Rudy Giuliani, John McCain, and Mitt Romney.[/B] A few months ago, he gave another $10,000 to the GOP congressional campaign committee, and he has been extremely generous to the congressional delegation from Chesapeake's home state of Oklahoma. McClendon took in over $21 million in compensation last year, while the company paid no federal income taxes. ________________________________________________________ Aubrey made sure he had all of the contingencies covered.
