So four years ago I needed a job, and my aunt got me a job with a certain republican lobbying firm that shall remain nameless. At first I thought I was going to be doing lobbying. But instead I did something I found to be wholly disgusting...
Astroturf lobbying...
If you don't think republicans can be evil, think about this tactic. You come up with a fancy name for a wholly bad idea. Let's use Tort Reform as an example. You call up a bunch of businesses and tell them that we're trying to help businesses protect themselves from this lawsuit, and will they sign on to this petition for this or that senator or congressmen to support that bill. Most to all of these businesses would NOT be affected by this bill at all. It was a shameless giveaway to large corporations like Halliburton and WorldCOM and all of the other companies who cheated their employees out of their retirement funds. So needless to say I quit that job soon after we the feeling of uncleanliness still on me. Now, add Medicare, and Social Security, and all this other crap that is out today, and this was in 1999, and the republicans have been doing this for 4 years tricking people into buying into their bullsh** so....we have a LOT to do in winning the people back. They use lies, we need to use the truth and broadcast it ASAP, because republicans WILL DO ANYTHING to win, believe me...I've seen it.
