I still scratch my head as to why people hate lobbyists.

NRA are Lobbyists
GOA are Lobbysists
National Right to Life are Lobbyists
Heritage Foundation are Lobbyists.

They are just professionals who represent groups of people.

The war against “Lobbyists” distracts us from philosophical issues the Lobbyists represent.

I don’t hate lobbyists at all.

I only hate lobbyists who will change their political/moral beliefs solely to advance their career.

Newt has shown that he will say one thing while in office and do another as a lobbyist.

Thank you. Let the voice of common sense prevail.
