Axelrod Cashes In On 'Change'

Quote:
Barack Obama's chief White House adviser is collecting millions of dollars from his former public relations firms as they sign lucrative contracts with coalitions recently created to push the president's agenda.
After arriving at the White House as top political guru, David Axelrod filed a required financial disclosure form that shows he will receive $3 million in installments over the next five years in a buyout with AKP&D Message and Media, and Ask Public Strategies.
The bottom line: Axelrod is essentially on his old firms' payrolls as he sits in the Oval Office as the closest confidant to the president. Advocacy groups know that when they are hiring AKP or Ask Public they are helping those companies stay profitable and make good on the $3 million.
Axelrod Cashes In on Change - HUMAN EVENTS

Is there anything zerO's administration does that does not reak of corruption? No wonder they are dragging the recession out as long as they can - his people are benefitting. Damn elitists.

It's on my bookshelf already. Got it using my CitiBank reward points when CB decided to start charging a yearly fee and I dumped them, ironically because of that stupid credit card bill zerO signed this year.
