FollowTheMoney.org & OpenSecrets.org are two websites that allow individuals to search political donation records. These two sites are a great tool for checking into who is giving money to whom.
Starting with the 2004 election, the Stoltz family and businesses have given a lot of money to politicians — almost exclusively Democrat politicians. While a couple of thousand dollars has gone to Republican officials in Delaware, over $70,000 has gone to 5 Democrats & the Democrat Party. Since 2004, the following have been beneficiaries of the Stoltz largesse:
- Joe Biden: $21,200
- Tom Carper: $6,400
- John Carney: $9,350
- Jack Markell: $17,300
- Minner/Delaware Democrat Party: $16,000
A couple of other Democrats also received small donations along the way, too. Furthermore, the Vice President bought his house from Keith Stoltz in 1996 for a pretty good deal. Add to the $70,000 + Biden House the money that Paul Clark has made through his wife’s work for Stoltz, and I think that we can surmise why the Barley Mill & related projects haven’t been rejected by our government. The Stoltz family seems to have made some very wise investments in elected officials.
No shame. no embarrasment, damn near criminal.
u cannot erase and censor the truth, PAL

Yes. What a travesty. No God-fearing Republican would ever do such a thing! Tut-tut.
