Don’t dare insinuate that I am somehow nescient and am spreading myths because it isn’t what you want to believe.

I would be glad if both of them were proven incorrect but you and I both know very well they haven’t been and that the opposite is true. You might rationalize or spin that he lobbied “a little bit” but one can’t “lobby a little bit” any more than one can be a little bit pregnant.

The truth is he did lobby for both of them and whatever hours he logged or didn’t log or if only one phone call was involved does not negate the fact that he did lobby for both of them. I even believed him when he said he didn’t lobby for the family planning group, but not only did he lobby for them ,he lied to us about it.

Our country is in desperate need of conservatives like you who have strayed into the camps of the those who would have us believe they are of us, for us, and, like us. I hope you find your way back.

regards,
SW

I didn't insinuate anything, and yes, both have been proven incorrect. The billing records for the 'abortion' group was posted here, and guess what, Thompson sat in on a few conference calls. Other members of the firm also confirmed that Thompson was only brought in to define specific legal points, not to lobby.

As for the Haiti issue, Thompson was hired to look into specific trade laws after the democratically elected government was overthrown in a military coup. He was brought in one day after the coup and long before Aristide's crimes were known. That, of course is a non sequitur as Thompson was brought in to discuss withholding trade from those who overthrew the government in a coup until a democratically elected government was brought back in.

Politicalmom, ping.. I know these have been gone over in great detail time and time again, do you have a link for some of this evidence so we don't keep going in circles over stuff disproven months ago?
