[QUOTE="diesel96, post: 564676, member: 9859"] The palms being greased in this scenario are the special interest groups... “pay for play” exposes the practice by some political interest groups of taking stands not for reasons of [B]pure principle[/B], as their members and supporters might assume, but because a sponsor is paying big money. Take a shot at Rev Jackson if you will, but I bet he takes a stand on principles more than special interest groups such as the American Conservative Union displays it's availibility to be swayed with greenbacks....I'm sure this behavior goes on with many political special interest and lobbiest groups on both sides, but the legislation feud between UPS and FedEx intensifies the exposure of this practise. The ACU has done a complete 180, from backing FedEx Chairman Fred S, a champion of capitalism who in the past has been a favorite of conservatives, to UPS for a price tag of $2 million.....that kind of chump change can be found between the seats of Fred S's Bentley....
