ProPublica And Sunlight Foundation Seek To Bring Transparency To The Corruption Of Foreign Lobbying

The political elite in our country seemingly have no shame when it comes to the destruction of our country or our ideals. I thought the Secretary of State was to conduct affairs publicly for the people of this country. Instead Washington lobbyists take money from foreign entities that includes murderers, thugs, rapists and all orders of human and civil rights abusers in order to peddle influence with our government. Something I would classify as treasonous. If not legally then ethically.

Oh I exaggerate you say. Oh really? The Democratic Republic of Congo is considered the rape capital of the world. As estimated half a million women and children have been raped over years of ethnic cleansing. Not to mention the more than five million people killed in this conflict that extends from the original Rwandan ethnic massacres. This is a great crime against humanity that the world's governments have really done little to stop this endless butchering, even though many humanitarian firms have pleaded for something, anything to be done. Why don't you check the lobbying status of the DRC in Washington? You might be surprised. Murderers, thugs, rapists and all orders of human and civil rights abusers is being nothing more than forthright. And what policy proof do you have that your life is worth any more than the victims of this crisis? Bankers get trillions in bailouts while Washington policy has destroyed much of our economic opportunity. Mostly because of lobbyist efforts for sure. In some twisted way, this and many other crises in and outside of the U.S. is anecdotal proof that there is little, if any, moral authority left in Washington.

Now ProPublica leads the charge in some attempt to shed light on this matter of great corruption.
