Let's All Go To The Lobby And Bundle Up A PAC
Digging through the Shrubville mailbag, I came across this in a comment from our Shrubville-critiquing friend Chris:
"It is refreshing that all three of the remaining viable candidates for president are strongly opposed to bowing to the special interests and the lobbyists."
I guess, like torture, "strongly opposed to bowing to the special interests and the lobbyists" is open to interpretation.
As noted in this article, all of the candidates, even Obama - the Lyin' Hawaiian - fund themselves with dirty, dirty money.
And if they truly wanted to let it be known that they eschew funding themselves with dirty, dirty money, they would make a point to turn down privately-raised funds and campaign with public financing, and yet they probably will not, letting it be known where their loyalty truly lies.
Some "good guys."

It is so cute when a little girl wants to torture people.

I've noticed Sacki doesn't care for Obama, which is probably why he chose the NYT editorial about public financing from Feb. 16th - before McCain was outed as trying to cheat the system. Why no grief for the "straight talker?"

Why no grief for the straight talker? You've got that guy covered. & CJo picks on Hillary. It's called teamwork, dude.
I mean, your saying that McCain is for waterboarding - when he's clearly not - is a good stretch of the truth in order to pound out a column. But he's your guy to cover, so I'll refrain from pointing that out.

McCain's clearly not for waterboarding? Funny, his voting record says otherwise:

That's the spirit! You're the McCain guy. CJo's the Hillary guy. And I'm the Obama guy. (Everybody gets to jump on Huckabee. (And ignore Paul.))

So when are you going to come up with some legitimate criticism of Obama? ;)
