Union's Political Contributions Exclusively to the Democrats

Although the facts do not lie, that Unions contribute many many times over to the Democrats, in effect buying and owning this politcal party, I do have it from a source that the Union contributions were not from Federal money (read tax payers money) that the Democrats voted to these Unions,...instead it came from bake sales.

No really, union members,...how does it make you feel that you pay dues and the union bosses use it to buy politicians,....the same politicians who are running this country into the ground?

Thanks Tom for the lead on the contributors.
