John Boehner's Boys-Only Lobbyist Golfing Buddies | Mother Jones

So many objections, so little time. For instance, with 2.5 years in the presidency, people were having cows about the president having been golfing I think it was 77 times. Boehner? He's been 100, this year alone.

Golf and politics. Not just politics - lobbyists. Powerful lobbyists, from the richest corporations in the land.



But I'm sure it's all pleasure, no business. Right?

i'm sure democrats neither golf nor employ lobbyists

oh, wait...

Oh, I had no idea you'd have a matching link giving specific information (just like mine) showing that Nancy Pelosi (Boehner's equal-but-opposite) was doing something comparable. You go on ahead, I'll wait right here for the specifics - names, places, etc.

Wow...getting bitch-slapped is a bitch

Nancy Pelosi has raised almost twice as much money from lobbyists this election as Boehner has?
At least 18 House Democrats have raised more lobbyist cash this election than Boehner has.
Chuck Schumer and Harry Reid have pocketed more lobbyist cash in the past 18 months than Boehner has raised in the past 6 elections, combined?

Red bolded would be true if I honestly thought no such links existed. Then I'd slink off to my corner, muttering "Cursies, follied again."

Too bad it took you waking up and starting your day to get the necessary information. Might you teach Del to Google?

...

So where is boop now with outrage over the president seeing the same lobbying types that the congressman did? Or is it JUST the republicans???


Anyone figure out that it really is not the lobbyists that are the problem here anyway? It is not the fact that there are people looking out for their interests that is the problem; it is the fact that politicians are able to give them kickbacks and bonuses as well as the corrupt cash flowing into the politician coffers. If the right was the only side with the issue, we would not have ended up with the disastrous stimulus, finical reform bill, auto buyouts and the healthcare package - all gifts from the left to big corporate/union special interests.

I speak fluent typonese - but what is this 'finical' you type of?

America & the Capitalism we enjoy allows us all the American Dream – the Freedom to succeed & start our own businesses. Capitalism has allowed the United States to be the most successful and Free nation in the world. In America – If you work hard & get an A+, you deserve an A+. However, Socialism’s goal is for everyone to be “equal”, and thus uses Government to perform “economic justice” on its people. Economic Justice is really the “redistribution of wealth” to penalize the successful and reward the unsuccessful. Socialism is Class-warfare, executed by a powerful Government which controls & confiscates the personal property and liberty of its people.

Socialism’s Flaw: You can never make poor people successful by giving them other people’s hard-earned money! On the contrary, a Socialist Government instills hostility between its people through class warfare. Socialism only incentivizes laziness; wherein, people become increasingly more dependent on the Government because of its abusive power to remove Freedoms from the people, confiscating their personal property and liberty.

America was founded on the principle of Freedom from Government (our United States Constitution & Bill of Rights). Our Founders fought & died for us: to keep Government limited. Regardless of its sales pitch of “giving to the poor”, Socialism results in a Government which invades & controls more and more of people’s lives. Power and control are transferred; instead of People ruling Government – a Socialist Government rules the People. Socialism is based on Freedom of Government; wherein, the Government determines ‘who gets what’ by controlling, confiscating, & redistributing the people’s personal properties and liberties.


Johns not the president is he, so frankly who gives a shit how much golf he plays

Or maybe you could quit playing naïve and pretending that the only people who play footsie with big-money lobbyists carry that (R) by their names.

Fool.

I'd be willing to bet that Boener and his lobbyists have crossed paths with Barry and his lobbyists on the links many times.

Oh yeah. And they will continue to do so.

It would not even be a challenge.

WHAT.....Did da' Boop abandon yet another thread of hers after being thoroughly schooled?

Seems to be a pattern with that liberal loony binner.
