Inaugural Donors at a Glance
I posted this in the Breaking News forum, but thought
it should be here too for discussion. Here is the AP link:

1. And to think military families often qualify for food stamps.
It's sickening. IMHO, this particular inaugural celebration is in especially poor taste given the war in Iraq and the devastation from the tsunami. If Dubya had a fragment of sense he'd tone it down by 30 or 40 mil. Makes me despise the guy even more.

2. Company categories: petroleum, finance, construction
There has been a construction and realestate boom in some parts of the country. Here's some of the ones that aren't obvious:

Lots of petroleum: Hunt consolidated is also petroleum.

Golden Eagle industries: owned by Charlotte billionaire CD Spangler is in construction

Kojaian Ventures: realestate

Finance includes: Long Beach Acceptance Corp., Rooney Holdings Inc.

Southern Co.: electricity producer.

Strongbow Technologies: servers(computer) especially for the financial industry.

In searching these, I've found several listed as contributors to Bush's campaign also.
