McCain's Domestic uber-lobbyists

By Garart on  From reform.squarespace.com
We could join the MSM and prognosticate whether Hillary’s continued persistence in this year’s presidential sweepstakes with Don Quixote’s lack of perspicacity. We might also engage in vice-presidential aspirations or in the generic what does Hillary Clinton want? Her recent comments about “white people voting for her,” followed by her macabre remark about the Robert Kennedy assassination demonstrate that Mrs. Clinton has crashed and burned. The ego bruise must excoriate her now that Senators...Read Full Story

It was only a matter of time. And, personally, I thought that when it hit, it would hit Obama first. I realize now that I forgot to take into account the “put on a pedestal” factor. Obama and Hillary are still battling it out to see who gets to step up on the Democratic side. John McCain pretty much has a lock on the Republican side. Which makes him the presumptive GOP nominee for President. And, obviously, our first contestant, Johnny, as we begin another exciting round of the game that has...Read Full Story

The opportunities for politicians to siphon money from rich patrons and corporations to fund themselves and their campaigns are always there. There are so many ways to cover up the naked sell-out that you have to be a tax accountant to follow the money. Makes me miss the good old days of Governor Ed DiPrete and his bag of cash at Walts Roast Beef. I...Read Full Story
