Midknight Review -- new and revised: After all the Democrat whining, it turns out that Big Labor has "unfairly" advantaged Democrat coffers for years.

After all the Democrat whining, it turns out that Big Labor has "unfairly" advantaged Democrat coffers for years.

The Wall Street Journal has found and is reporting, that labor unions, beginning in the days before the Citizens United decision – (Jan 25, 2009), have contributed more than $600 million a year to political campaigns for an admitted total of 4.4 billion dollars in the seven year period of 2005 - 2011, money these unions have not reported in times past.

With that in mind, we now know that the Obama campaign spent more than 1.4 billion dollars against McCain’s $530 million. Of course, the 2012 campaign season promises to be very different.

Keep this fact in mind: the gross spending record of the 2008 Obama campaign netted him a marginal 7 point victory. Against an opponent with equal funding sources, the failing Obama may not be able to duplicate his 2008 victory.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
