The Turkish Embassy is paying $100,000 a month to lobbying firm DLA Piper and $105,000 a month to the Livingston Group, and it recently added communications specialists Fleishman-Hillard for nearly $114,000 a month, according to records filed with the Justice Department. Turkish lawmakers were on Capitol Hill yesterday, warning that passage would put military cooperation with Turkey at risk.

That's a lot of money when you add up they've been fighting this resolution for years for something they deny they ever did.

Yea, "Big Turkey" just like "Big Oil" and "Big Tobacco", right?
