when will it ever end? When will it ever end with respect to special interest money and public policy in the people's House. Later today we will learn that Speaker Gingrich will pay his fine for lying to Congress by borrowing it from Bob Dole, Bob Dole who was recently hired by big tobacco to get a settlement in the Congress of the United States for all of the people that tobacco has injured because of addiction and the cancer causing agent. We now have the chief lobbyists for big tobacco financing the payoff of the Speaker's fine for lying to the Congress. Is there nothing that we cannot do without special interest money? Is there nothing that we cannot do that is on the level? Do we now have to bring in big tobacco to rescue the ethics of the Speaker of the House of Representatives? This is a very sad day for the House of Representatives when the tobacco industry is paying the legal fines of Members of Congress.
