I Wanna Rock And Roll All Night — And Lobby Every Day
November 29, 2007 at 11:14 pm
Isn’t it wonderful when Democrats can get together with Republicans, Republicans can get together with Democrats, put aside their differences … and lobby?
It’s warm, fuzzy moments like those which make us all tingly about our political system.
Take today’s Washington Post:
Former senator John Breaux announced yesterday that he is leaving the law firm Patton Boggs to form his own lobbying group, fueling speculation that he might join with soon-to-retire senator Trent Lott (R-Miss.), his longtime friend, to create a new K Street powerhouse.
A beautiful story, ain’t it? But wait, it gets better:
One possibility that drew widespread speculation in downtown D.C. yesterday was that Breaux and Lott could create a father-son business. Lott’s son Chester, like Breaux’s son, has been a lobbyist, and the families are known to be close. Breaux once told reporters that he and Lott took their sons to a Kiss concert years ago.
They bonded at a Kiss concert? Outstanding. Talk about Calling Dr. Love!
Might we be so bold as to suggest a pattern for Lott/Breaux & Associates letterhead?

Dear Extreme Mortman,
If we just used the Kiss Army instead of the regular army there would be no problems in the world, everybody would just be rockin’ and rollin’. Mortman Rules!
