Influence peddling in D.C. will shatter record in Obama’s first year
K Street lobbyists are raking in the cash with Barack Obama and the D.C. liberals running the show. According to Politico, lobbyists will shatter last years record $3.3 billion in fees to lobby Congress and the Obama Administration. Considering that Obama campaigned on reigining in lobbying efforts, this is just one more broken campaign promise in a record shattering year for broken campaign promises, corruption, irresponsible binge spending and dishonesty that went into over drive three years ago. Is this the change you had hoped for?
