Ever notice how Democrats like to demonize those they promise to save us from while they surreptitiously take money from them all the same in order to get themselves re-elected? In today's episode of Democrat hypocrisy, let us consider the money Nick Lampson has received from the very groups he wants to make his potential voters believe are the biggest problem this country has ever faced.[mp3 audio] Lampson suggests there are 4 main industries that are getting all the money in our country. 1- Defense(not the troops but the defense industry) - the weapons makers. 2- Oil. 3- Insurance. 4- Pharmaceuticals. The money quote starts at 1:18:
"Across the board, where those industries are putting their finances into, you’ll see that politicians get the big contributions from the lobbyists who work for those four industries and they work on the legislators to pass the legislation that benefits those industries so that more money will go there.
So, I asked myself..."haystack? Where does Lampson get his campaign contributions?" and shock of all shocks...it's from many of the same types of people he tells this audience are the biggest problem with the country today.
Hunh? Whodathunk?
I worked up a little summary from my clicking around a bit. Between 1998 and 2008 (near as I can figure), compliments of these 4 so-called evil industries, Lampson has dumped a lot of cash into his pockets:
Defense Oil/Gas Insurance Pharmaceuticals
$72,500 $92,923 $7,250 $14,000
He goes on to suggest the whole money game is an iron triangle. Funny, that. Out here in the sticks we use a triangle to call everyone home for supper. Wonder how long before Lampson goes hungry once his donors find out he's tearing them up behind their backs...
Oh, and by the way, it looks like Lampson received $329,117 in contributions from Moveon.org on top of that...boy howdy...he's doing pretty good for being out to save the little guy, ain't he?
