Ok, so I said I wouldn’t write on the weekends. Technically it’s still Friday night though so it’s not really the weekend yet. I just wanted to leave you all with this video that News Hounds posted earlier. Something to think about as the McCain adultery/corruption case unfolds.
As you watch this video keep in mind that John McCain has been saying that “I’m The Only Candidate That The Special Interests Don’t Give Money To”. Odd how he never mentions that he has a lobbyist doing business right out of the “Straight Talk Express” bus. Or that he has 59 lobbyists on his campaign staff. The most of any candidate on either party.
Yeah. Republicans. Standing up for truth and honesty except for when they are not. That’s some straight talk there folks. Head over to Brave New Films and sign the petition they have going there asking McCain to return the Millions he has collected from lobbyists.

yea more lobbyists than either Hilary or Obama, with Hilary second and Obama last having one I know of an environmental lobbyist - there may be more on that not sure.
Most of Hilary and McCains lobbyists are pretty corporate heavy - AT& T, Verizon, etc.

Of course Hillary isn’t running on her record as being against lobbyists so there isn’t any hypocrisy there. Then when you take into account that she only has 19 lobbyists as compared to McCain’s 59 the comparison falls apart even more. This is sadly another example of Republicans saying one thing while doing another. I keep waiting for the day when the Republican voters wake up to the fact that they are being duped. Someday maybe.
