2. Well in the sense of making love, I'd say that you end up making love to people you meet
and congress critters meet a lot of lobbyists.

In the sense of screwing them over, not nearly enough. Practically none.

3. I think you have the question the wrong way round...
The question is how many Senators are being fucked by lobbyists?

4. Currently serving?
Going by the healthcare debate...about 90-percent.

In the private sector...about 90-percent.

Both guesses.

What I do know:

We the People need action on real campaign finance reform.

We the People need to make government service for the corporations into a turnstyle to fat paydays in industry.

The Sopranos to rule today on complete corporate rule. We need to write campaign finance reform into the Constitution.

And it's just about time for him to trade the latest one in.

(Edit: I know Newt was a Speaker of the House, not a Senator.)

7. Awesome! I can't get enough of "family values" repubs boinking women who aren't their wives.

16. Now I see why lobbyists get paid so much for "lobbying". Just imagine "lobbying"
Arlen Sphincter. Or even worse, Inhofe.
