Six Of One

2:01 am EST January 20th, 2006 | Politics | 1 Comment

Yawn. The GOP plans to swap one corrupt Republican for another. Shocking.

K STREET HELPS Blunt and Boehner in race to succeed DeLay.

Allies of the ex-majority leader, including lobbyist Susan Hirschmann, support Blunt of Missouri. Energy lobbyist Drew Maloney also backs Blunt, who gets help from Baby Bell phone companies, FedEx and the airline industry.

Boehner of Ohio, who received a lobbying-industry award for building “strong business-government relations” in 2005, gets help from tax and pension lobbyist Bruce Gates and Citigroup Inc. lobbyist Bob Shellhas. Boehner splits tobacco support with Blunt, whose wife has lobbied for the industry.

    Hell, the Blunts are as crooked as they come. Check out the bang-up job his son has done as Governor of Missouri. Daddy bought him a state and junior broke it.
