The list in that article is a mix of corporate and individual donors. The list that Rachel (at least on her show...I didn't see the Leno show) used was corporate donors (which in includes unions). The list didn't make too much sense either. Look at the SEIU entry. It lists the total donated, which puts them in second place, but says that only 23% went to dems and 0% went to Republicans. Where did the other 67% go? That's not on the fence...that is overwhelmingly in favor of whomever the 67% went to. I would suggest that the list Rachel used was amount donated to republicans and amount donated to dems and that listed 3 for dems and 7 for republicans. This list seems irrelevant to the argument.

Since she made up her facts, he must have stolen them from her. He deserves at least a reprimand and owes an apology. .
