Yesterday on Fox News Sunday, the shrill voice of Drill Baby Drill tried to accuse President Obama of being too "doggone" cozy with the oil industry, citing BP's contributions to the Obama campaign.
Well, okay. Let's look at campaign contributions from the entire oil industry, then.
During the 2008 election cycle, 77% of the industry's $35.6 million in contributions went to Republicans, and in the 2008 presidential contest, Republican candidate Sen. John McCain received more than twice as much money from the oil and gas industries as Obama: McCain collected $2.4 million; Obama, $898,000.
Doggone!
