Obey's FEC

2% of Dave Obey's First Quarter Fundraising Comes from Wisconsin.

Wow, that's an impressive show of grassroots constituent support!!!

98% of Dave Obey's nearly $272,000 in campaign contributions came from special interest PACs in Washington, DC as well as 39 other states. 69% of contributions were from special interest PACs and 29% from out of state sources.

Yet, no mention of the breakdown of this funding from our newspapers. How sad on both counts.

Obey's Friend and More

Well, the woman Dave Obey shouted down and offered a parting expletive to, was arrested for protesting outside Speaker Nancy Pelosi's office while chanting anti-war sentiments.

Also, over the break, Obey claimed he was making multiple stops across the district. We found evidence of one.
