OFA Kingpin Battles Global Warming While Taking Payday from big Oil

Was AL gore near South DakotaJust another day in the neighborhood.

Despite scoring $50,000 speeches from big oil—a sum nearly equal to the median household income—(Jim) Messina’s OFA website says the Obama campaign-turned-advocacy group is busy battling global warming and fighting for “clean energy.”

The Breitbart article points out, quoting insiders, that Jim Messina, part of the Income Inequality Rhetoric Rangers, has been scooping up big-fee speaking gigs faster than your Labrador can lap up a cup of kibbles off the kitchen tile.   The dude is cashing in.  Getting filthy rich.  Which got me to thinking.  So-called Income Equality warrior Jeanne Shaheen (A multimillionaire one-percenter herself) rubs elbows with an out-of-state environmentalist banking industry billionaire who opposes affordable energy as much as Shaheen does, and is willing to spend a share of his ill gotten .01-percenter gains to help keep a like-minded left-winger stay in the US Senate where she can make everyone’s energy cost more while handing out other people’s money to Democrat-supporting, rent-seeking green energy concerns that collapse anyway.  Where’s the income equality in that?
