Uhhhh... no.
It is illegal to take money from corporations. He's taken money from individuals who work at those businesses... they could be the CEO... or they could be the mailroom copy boy.

/The Audacity Of Hypocrisy
March 31, 2008/
<start>
*OBAMA LAUNDRY LIST OF LIES*
1.) Selma Got Me Born - LIAR, your parents felt safe enough to have
you
in 1961 - Selma had no effect on your birth, as Selma was in 1965.
2.) Father Was A Goat Herder - LIAR, he was a privileged, well
educated
youth, who went on to work with the Kenyan Government.
3.) Father Was A Proud Freedom Fighter - LIAR, he was part of one of
the
most corrupt and violent governments Kenya has ever had
4.) My Family Has Strong Ties To African Freedom - LIAR, your cousin
Raila Odinga has created mass violence in attempting to overturn a
legitimate election in 2007, in Kenya. It is the first widespread
violence in decades.
5.) My Grandmother Has Always Been A Christian - LIAR, she does her
daily Salat prayers at 5am according to her own interviews. Not to
mention, Christianity wouldn't allow her to have been one of 14 wives
to
1 man.
6.) My Name is African Swahili - LIAR, your name is Arabic
and 'Baraka'
(from which Barack came) means 'blessed' in that language. Hussein is
also Arabic and so is Obama.
7.) I Never Practiced Islam - LIAR, you practiced it daily at school,
where you were registered as a Muslim and kept that faith for 31
years,
until your wife made you change, so you could run for office.
8.) My School In Indonesia Was Christian - LIAR, you were registered
as
Muslim there and got in trouble in Koranic Studies for making faces
(check your own book).
9.) I Was Fluent In Indonesian - LIAR, not one teacher says you could
speak the language.
10.) Because I Lived In Indonesia, I Have More Foreign Experience -
LIAR, you were there from the ages of 6 to 10, and couldn't even
speak
the language. What did you learn, how to study the Koran and watch
cartoons.
11.) I Am Stronger On Foreign Affairs - LIAR, except for Africa
(surprise) and the Middle East (bigger surprise), you have never been
anywhere else on the planet and thus have NO experience with our
closest
allies.
12.) I Blame My Early Drug Use On Ethnic Confusion - LIAR, you were
quite content in high school to be Barry Obama, no mention of Kenya
and
no mention of struggle to identify - your classmates said you were
just
fine.
13.) An Ebony Article Moved Me To Run For Office - LIAR, Ebony has
yet
to find the article you mention in your book. It doesn't, and never
did,
exist.
14.) A Life Magazine Article Changed My Outlook On Life - LIAR, Life
has
yet to find the article you mention in your book. It doesn't, and
never
did, exist.
15.) I Won't Run On A National Ticket In '08 - LIAR, here you are,
despite saying, live on TV, that you would not have enough experience
by
then, and you are all about having experience first.
16.) "Present" Votes Are Common In Illinois - LIAR, they are common
for
YOU, but not many others have 130 NO VOTES.

ON
LEAVE.
20.) Without Me, There Would Be No Ethics Bill - LIAR, you didn't
write
it, introduce it, change it, or create it.
21.) The Ethics Bill Was Hard To Pass - LIAR, it took just 14 days
from
start to finish.
22.) I Wrote A Tough Nuclear Bill - LIAR, your bill was rejected by
your
own party for its pandering and lack of all regulation - mainly
because
of your Nuclear Donor, Exelon, from which David Axelrod came.
23.) I Have Released My State Records - LIAR, as of March, 2008,
state
bills you sponsored or voted for have yet to be released, exposing
all
the special interests pork hidden within.
24.) I Took On The Asbestos Altgeld Gardens Mess - LIAR, you were
part
of a large group of people who remedied Altgeld Gardens. You failed
to
mention anyone else but yourself, in your books.
25.) My Economics Bill Will Help America - LIAR, your 111 economic
policies were just combined into a proposal which lost 99-0, and even
YOU voted against your own bill.
26.) I Have Been A Bold Leader In Illinois - LIAR, even your own
supporters claim to have not seen BOLD action on your part.
27.) I Passed 26 Of My Own Bills In One Year - LIAR, they were not
YOUR
bills, but rather handed to you, after their creation by a fellow
Senator, to assist you in a future bid for higher office.
28.) No One Contacted Canada About NAFTA - LIAR, the Candian
Government
issued the names and a memo of the conversation your campaign had
with them.
29.) I Am Tough On Terrorism - LIAR, you missed the Iran Resolution
vote
on terrorism and your good friend Ali Abunimah supports the
destruction
of Israel.
30.) I Am Not Acting As President Yet - LIAR, after the NAFTA Memo, a
dead terrorist in the FARC, in Colombia, was found with a letter
stating
how you and he were working together on getting FARC recognized
officially.

33.) I won Nevada - LIAR, no you did not.
34.) I Want All Votes To Count - LIAR, you said let the delegates

limit
the vote, confuse the voters, force a public vote, and only operate
during small windows of time.
36.) I passed 900 Bills in the State Senate - LIAR, you passed 26,
most
of which you didn't write yourself.
37.) My Campaign Was Extorted By A Friend - LIAR, that friend is
threatening to sue if you do not stop saying this. Obama has stopped
saying this.
38.) I Believe In Fairness, Not Tactics - LIAR, you used tactics to
eliminate Alice Palmer from running against you.
39.) I Don't Take PAC Money - LIAR, you take loads of it.
40.) I don't Have Lobbysists - LIAR, you have over 47 lobbyists, and
counting.
41.) My Campaign Had Nothing To Do With The 1984 Ad - LIAR, your own
campaign worker made the ad on his Apple in one afternoon.

MySpace issued a warning about this advertising to MySpace clients.

other people's words.
44.) I Have Passed Bills In The U.S. Senate - LIAR, you have passed A
BILL in the U.S. Senate - for Africa, which shows YOUR priorities.
45.) I Have Always Been Against Iraq - LIAR, you weren't in office to
vote against it AND you have voted to fund it every single time,
unlike
Kucinich, who seems to be out gutting you Obama. You also seem to be
stepping back from your departure date - AGAIN.
46.) I Have Always Supported Universal Health Care - LIAR, your plan
leaves us all to pay the 15,000,000 who don't have to buy it.
47.) I Only Found Out About My Investment Conflicts Via Mail - LIAR,
both companies you site as having sent you letters about this
conflict
have no record of any such letter ever being created or sent.
48.) I Am As Patriotic As Anyone - LIAR, you won't wear a flag pin
and
you don't put your hand over your heart during the Anthem.
49.) My Wife Didn't Mean What She Said About Pride In Country - LIAR,
your wife's words follow lock-step in the vein of Wright and
Farrahkan,
in relation to their contempt and hatred of America.
50.) Wal-Mart Is A Company I Wouldn't Support - LIAR, your wife has
received nearly a quarter of a million dollars through Treehouse,
which
is connected to Wal-Mart.
51.) Treehouse Is A Small Company - LIAR, the CEO of Treehouse last
year, made more than the CEO of Wal-Mart, according to public records.
52.) University Of Chicago Hospital Pay Is Fair - LIAR, your wife's
pay
raise was nearly 150% her already bloated rate and the hospital is a
Non-Profit Hospital, which made $100,000,000 in the last 3 years.
They
overcharge blacks VS whites for services, and overcharge everyone in
general by 538%!
53.) I Barely Know Rezko - Only 5 Billed Hours - LIAR, you have
known
him for 17 years, and decided to do a real estate deal with him
during a
time when he was proven to be under investigation. Despite this, you
divided your property and had them take off $300K before the mortgage
problems started. Then Rezko's wife buys the lot beside it that you
can't afford, saving you $625,000.
54.) My Donations Have Been Checked Thoroughly - LIAR, you only gave
back Hsu ($72K) and Rezko (first $66K, then when caught lying $86K,
then
when caught lying again $150K and now caught lying YET AGAIN OBAMA,
it's
$250k) their money when publicly called on their involvement in your
campaigns.
55.) My Church Is Like Any Other Christian Church - LIAR, your church
is
so extreme, the pastor who married you, Rev. Wright, just got done
blaming the US for 9/11 and named Louis Farrahkan their person of the
year.
56.) I Disagree With My Church All The Time - LIAR, you still have
yet
to repudiate Wright, who married you and your wife, and you still
donate
large sums of money to assist the church in furthering its message -
hatred and revenge. You donated in 2006 alone, $22,500 to the church
that you so terribly disagree with. That is nearly $500 PER WEEK -
that
sure is disagreement, Senator Obama.
57.) I Have Clean Connections Despite Rezko - LIAR, you are not only
connected to Exelon and Rezko, you are also connected to Hillary PAC
supporter Mr. Hsu, AND an Iraqi Billionaire of ill repute, Nadhmi
Auchi,
who ripped off people in the Food For Oil, Iraqi deal. Seems Mr.
Auchi
may have helped Obama buy his million dollar property long before
Obama
had millions of dollars. Wonder what favors Mr. Auchi expects, when
Obama leaves Iraq free to be taken over by special interests such as
him.
58.) I never heard sermons like Rev. Wright's, that have been in
videos
all day, You Tube - LIAR! 3 days later during your Mea Culpa BS
speech
you said "Did I hear controversial statements while I sat in that
church? Yes I did."
59.) The Passport Invasion is a conspiracy to find dirt on me! -
LIAR.
Your own Campaign Foreign Policy Advisor is the CEO of the company
that
looked into your records. PS - You had them look into yours to hide
the
fact you looked into Clinton's and McCain's more than a year before!
60.) Rev. Meeks has nothing to do with my campaigning - LIAR. Rev.
Meeks
appeared in ads for your Senate Campaign, donated to you, and helped
raise money, then AND NOW. PS - He also seems to despise America.
61.) My wife didn't mean America is ignorant, she was just using a
phrase - LIAR. Again, MicHELLe's comments perfectly sync with
Wright's,
Meeks', and Farrakhan's, both in language, anger, and direction.
62.) I am very Anti-Terror - LIAR. One of your good pals is long time
radical and terrorist William Ayers, with whom you have been seen in
the
last 12 months and who has helped the now jailed khalidi, Professor
at
Columbia who invited Ahmadinejad to the University, to raise money
for
Palestinian terrorism attacks against Israel. PS - Your church
published
a pro Hamas Manifesto - guess you weren't there on THAT Sunday
either?
How lucky for you.
63.) I have the best plan to cure the Mortgage Crisis - LIAR. You and
your campaign buddy Penny SubPrime Bank Collapse Prizker have had
your
little fingers full of subprime cash - Obama has taken $1,180,103
from
the top issuers of subprime loans: Obama received $266,907 from
Lehman,
$5395 from GMAC, $150,850 from Credit Suisse First Boston, $11,250
from
Countrywide, $9052 from Washington Mutual, $161,850 from Citigroup,
$4600 from CBASS, $170,050 from Morgan Stanley, $1150 from Centex,
and
last but certainly NOT LEAST - Obama received $351,900 from Goldman
Sachs. I am sure that cash all came from folks who knew the subprime
loan they had was a dream, eh?
