Michael even if it were true that Lehman was run by Democrats- that doesn't mean they are liberals.

reuters.com

This says Lehman gave to everyone- and about twice as much to dems- but rather than being "liberals" it appears they are just the customers of whores- republican and democratic whores in our government- the folks in Washington who they can buy. I'm not sure that says anything about the parties in general, except that they are all whores.

Oh dear!!!
Taken over time- they only gave about 54% to dems. Which means their lobbying efforts have been pretty evenly split- depending on which party they thought would be in power. Now even if that weren't true, it still wouldn't prove Lehman was liberal. Try to remember what you are supposed to be proving. Even if they were 100% democrat (which they obviously are not) none of this shows they are 1. liberal, or 2. that party affiliation has anything to do with this.
