Blackwater increases DC lobbying presence
Edited on Thu Jan-10-08 10:50 AM by Triana
This is JUST the thing John Edwards is talking about. Do you think anything will change with this sort of thing with Hillary or Obama as President? I don't.

Blackwater increases DC lobbying presence.

Controversial private security firm Blackwater Worldwide “has ramped up its lobbying representation on Capitol Hill” by hiring the law firm Womble Carlyle Sandridge & Rice to “lobby the government on contracting and other issues.” “Womble Carlyle is the third lobbying firm to be hired by Moyock, N.C.-based Blackwater since October.” January 9, 2008 8:49 pm
