Plug in your zip code and find out who your neighbors are sending their political contributions to.   Creepy (http://www.fundrace.org/neighbors.php?type=loc&addr=&zip=21703&search=Search+by+Location)  if you ask me.

Thats cool! Gee, alot more Bush supporters in my neighborhood, imagine that! ;)

Got my "Boycott" list of businesses as well!

I verified a couple of these "donations" (2 were co-workers in Exchange)  Seems to be accurate.

LOL

Interesting stuff. Check out "60089" and see how International Profit Associates is covering its bases with their "private" donations. Be sure to look at the last names of some of the "homemakers." What a giving company they are :)
