AS, I would be interested in finding out where you got your information for your contention that "half" of Bush's Presidential campaign funding came from the oil and gas industry. That would seem to be inaccurate. Check out these numbers from OpenSecrets.org site:

Total raised by Bush: $193 million

Top industries contributing to Bush: Retired, attorneys, real estate, securities and investment and miscellaneous finance.

Oil and gas contributions: $1.9 million
