Vote with Your Dollars: View the political contributions of your favorite companies (Interactive)
http://www.goodguide.com/contributions#sector=Computer/Internet&sort=total&query=

Vote With Your Dollars, is a corporate political contributions map. Using the public data from the Center for Responsive Politics (2004-2008), GoodGuide.com has plotted the balance of contributions from companies. Mouse-over a specific company logo to see the detailed data (like Dell above).

View the political contributions of your favorite companies and see how you vote with your dollars. The data is surprising!

You can choose specific companies or business sectors, and then change the sort order.

Great interactive feature. Informative and very easy to use.

1. Wow! Take a look at "Pharmaceuticals"
And then wonder why the health-care "debate" is going the way it has been...

Thanks for posting this! (Incidentally, under "Telecommunications," I believe "Working Assets" is now known as "Credo").
