Murkowski rated number one in receiving oil industry gifts.
The oil industry flew him around the countryside in private jets more than any other Senator or Governor. Ninty percent of the iol industry "donations" went to Republicans but a little did go to Democrats. Senator John Breaux received $11,000. and Tim Johnson received just under $10,000. Why does Murkowski need his own private jet paid for out of Homeland Security Funding when the oil industry flys him anywhere he wants anytime he wants? He is sickening IMHO.
