Bob Dole was hilarious on CSPAN the other day..
By the way, Bob and Liddy must be visiting the same plastic surgeon because they are looking more and more like twins these days.

Anyway, somebody asked Bob what he thinks about the increasing calls for McCain to shake loose the lobbyists from his campaign, seeing as how he's a registered lobbyist and all..

Bob said that since the term "lobbyist" has become a dirty word that he prefers not to use the term anymore, that he prefers the term "advocate", and that he really doesn't "lobby" in the true sense of the word, he just meets with people.

The guy was killing me...:rofl: :rofl:

1. well, if we have to replace the word lobbyist with advocate..I suggest it be followed immediately
by whom they are advocating FOR.."Hello, my name is greasy oilslick and I am an advocate for Exxon/Mobile and I am here to help pay you!"

2. I guess he's just an advocate
for Viagra too .......I shuddered every time I saw his face associated with those commercials - just the thought of old Bob getting it up for Liddy gives me nightmares. :scared: What a buffoon.
