If you run a consulting firm you don't turn down business. Freddie says he was a consultant not a lobbyist. If this bothers you wait till you find out what lawyers do. As to the other question where did you get the information that he lobbyed to kill a bill?

Because that was Freddie's primary objective at the time of his payments - to get the House GOP leaderhsip to kill the bill - and it succeeded. $1.6 million is a lot of money - not thrown around for "history" lessons.
