Lobbyists Prepare For Speaker Boehner
http://thinkprogress.org/2010/05…
"Boehner has been known for his cozy relationship with K Street lobbyists ever since he handed out campaign contribution checks from tobacco lobbyists on the House floor in the mid-90s. When Republicans controlled Congress, Boehner and Rep. Roy Blunt (R-MO) were the point men for former Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-TX) in communicating with corporate lobbyists. And in 2006, he was caught living in a house owned by a lobbyist who had sought legislative favors from him."
Anyone who thinks these guys are gonna spend less money than the Democrats are smoking crack. John Boehner along with Tom Delay and co are the ones responsible for blowing up the debt during the Bush years. And you wanna put him back in charge...???
