Quote of the Day
February 22nd, 2008 | by Jet Netwal |From my email today:
John McCain may try to claim that the past careers of his advisers are irrelevant, but look at this passage from today’s Washington Post article about Charlie Black, McCain adviser and chairman of lobbying firm BKSH and Associates…
But even as Black provide a private voice and a public face for McCain, he also leads his lobbying firm, which offers corporate interests and foreign governments the promise of access to the most powerful lawmakers. Some of those companies have interests before the Senate and, in particular, McCain’s Commerce Committee.Black said he does a lot of his work by telephone from McCain’s Straight Talk Express bus.
John McCain literally has a lobbyist for “corporate interests and foreign governments” working from the “Straight Talk Express.”
Where will they work from if he wins the White House? — Howard Dean
