Repubs are beating us to the punch re: Lobbying Reform.... |
|
They are all over the place and trying to grab this issue from the Demsand to inject their b.s. (the Dems are crooked too and took money from Abramhoff). Another example of how organized the Repubs are and how disorganized the Dems are. I hardly see any Dems out there.

1. The Democratic offensive has already been announced |
|
It begins Tomorrow. Stay tuned.
I would guess most Americans are laughing their asses off at the Republicans right now.

8. Hopefully Democrats are rejecting the use of the term "lobbying reform" |

which implies that the problem is lobbying...
When the real problem is corrupt Republicans who take bribes.

2. Do you actually think that if the Dems brought |
|
it up it would go anyplace? If Dems did, they would be accused of being partisan and trying to put the spotlight on the Republicans illegal stuff.

3. Isn't working. Yesterday - they turned to blaming casino owners |
|
for being exploited. I actually half expect them to say "Hey - it is dangerous having that much money floating around in an economy". I'll agree. Profits for many businesses are dangerously hight -ie Big Oil.

simply shows desperation. To the general public, it is simply CYA, I think.
