Herman Cain has said he did lobbying as one of the faucets of his job with the National Restaurant Association during this 3 year tenure. He said that during his time at the NRA about 30% was spent on lobbying.

But there is a big difference here. Cain was paid with private funds. If the National Restaurant Association wants to pay Cain to lobby, or to write the history of the cheeseburger, I say go right ahead.

But Newt was paid $250,000 a year with taxpayer money, my money. What did the taxpayer get for that money? Darn little that I can see. I'm not OK with that.

Don’t you think there is a difference between lobbying for an industry that wants the government to butt out and an industry that wants government handouts ?
