Neighborhood watch

By Michelle Malkin  •  July 18, 2004 06:32 PM

This is pretty amazing – a searchable database put together by an enterprising team at FundRace that allows you to find out who your neighbors have been giving political donations to and how much.

Personally, my husband discourages me from talking politics with the neighbors. Our kids wouldn’t have anyone to play with if I did.

    This is one of the coolest things ever! I think I just busted my super-liberal friend’s parents. It appears that they both contributed to GWB’s reelection campaign!

    Very interesting, but it’s unfortunately either not all-inclusive or there are bugs in it. I searched for myself and didn’t show up on the list, and I have contributed to GWB’s campaign.
    To Deb: Yeah, there is a sense of the peeping factor indeed. I not only tried to peep on myself but others I know!

    Nice work here Michelle finding this site. I’m glad I live in a Zip Code that is 70% Bush County.

    Why don’t one of you guys develop software that can tell you which of your neighbors are engaging in lewd sexual conduct too?? I’d HATE to have a bunch of sodomites and oral sex lovers in my neighborhood! Deport them!

    That would be good too, I mean, if you’re lookin’ for a good time on the Internet and that’s your thang.

    Michelle reported on a website she found on political contributions, not X-rated spyware…but you knew that.

    Simple- call for a public database of such a thing and you may have your wish. The only reason this database exists and is public is thanks to the various “campaign finance reform” laws that have passed.

    (and to think, they want a list like this for gun owners…)
