The US Chamber of Commerce has raised vast sums (at least $90 million) from large corporations to promote Bush's large agendas of tort elimination and social security decimination. Guess who Chamber President Thomas J. Donohue has
hired to help in the effort?
The chamber has hired the Swiss Guard of paid consultants from both political parties. Several showed up at a recent dinner hosted by Donohue at the chamber, including Al From, chief executive of the Democratic Leadership Council; Thomas F. "Mack" McLarty, who was White House chief of staff in the Clinton administration;
Donohue is careful to say, "We're not an arm of the Republican Party. We need to engage the moderate Democrats."
There should be no no such thing as a "moderate Democrat" on these 2 issues.
