OW! That headline just gave me a migraine.

Lobbies indeed.

We should add a provision in the stimulus plan that they remove the lobbies from all government buildings while they renovate and make them more energy efficient.

No lobby, no lobbyists.

Mom always said its important to have lobbies.

I don't know why, but that gave me a good chuckle. I can almost picture someone actually suggesting that and being totally serious about it.

Confusing headline greenlit to confuse farkers to stop them submitting confusing headlines

Yo dawg, I heard you don't like lobbyists. So I hired a lobbyist to lobby you antilobby lobbying.

Could you state that in the form of a question?

 
steveGswine 2009-02-05 08:56:30 PM  
Conclusive proof that the right hand does in fact know what the left is doing, and, in general, wants it stopped.

You managed, submitter, to make my head hurt more than it already did, yet make sense in the process.

i think it's time to drop the florida tag. not make a new state designated as a fark tag. but it's been 8 years since, and florida is definitely not the only dumb state.

Headline of the Year!

shawnshawnery: but it's been 8 years since, and florida is definitely not the only dumb state.

But it can hold a lot more dumb than the others.

I had something really clever to add, but my computer crashed so clearly it would have been offensive to some deity.

The guy at the end of the thread 2009-02-05 10:52:28 PM  
I honestly do not see the issue here.

In order for a great nation to function properly, the government must have it's ear to the pulse of it's people's needs.

It's people; being employed to, invested in, and maintaining ownership of these gigantic corporations, have a vested interest in ensuring that these corporations function in manner that will result in the maximum yield of profits.

It's up to our brave corporate lobbyists, skilled-tactions who are able to disregard environmental, health and ethical concerns, to cross that guilded line that separates our vital corporate entities from the cold, detached Washington aristocracy.

In a way, lobbyists are our voice, their song; sweet determination, ensuring that no boundries block our growth and no red-tape strangles our precious corporate interests.

Galvin sure got his mug all over that article. He's done some PSAs on voting recently so he must be preparing to run for governor next time.
