The Richmond Democrat blog
  also advocates following the money trail during elections. The Richmond Democrat referenced an Alternet article listing the top 10 Iraqi war profiteers.

Tom Davis (R-VA-11) has received contributions from from 5 corporations in the top 10 war profiteers list.  I've confined the contributions to the most recent during 2005-2006 time period.

The number 1 war profiteer--CACI.  CACI's top man Dr. J. P. London is a long time financial supporter of Rep. Tom Davis.  London has personally donated $3,2000.

Bechtel is number 3 on the top 10 list.  Bechtel donated $5,000.

Number 6--General Dynamics--gave the Davis campaign $5,000.

Chevron--Number 8 on the top 10 list--contributed $1,000 to the Davis Campaign during the 2005-2006 time period.

Number 9--ExxonMobil--gave Davis $2,500.

Rep. Tom Davis (R-VA-11) received $16,700 from 5 of the top 10 Iraqi war profiteering corporations in 2005-2006.

Bechtel gave it's maximum contribution weeks ago (Andrea Chamblee - 9/18/2006 1:18:11 PM)
during the re-consideration of it's contract for the Metro tunnel in Tysons, on 3/20/06.

I wonder if that contributed to Tom's decision to charge into Richmond politics to demand that Bechtel's contract be left alone?

Why wouldn't that be a job for his Delegate wife instead? Doesn't she have enough clout on her own to make a pitch for her District? Or is her husband her clout?



It's up to 6 (pitin - 9/19/2006 10:52:08 AM)
I just dug a little deeper, and have found Tom took at least $193,500 from these guys since the 01-02 cycle (since the war started)
