JiSM Has More Lobbyists Than Bats in His Belfry

Agent X continues on the trail of information about the lobbyist connections of JiSM, who seems to know and consort with more lobbyists than real Americans.
AgentX has left a new comment on your post "The John McCain Lobbyist Football Team":

Here's some more lobbyist dirt.

In this posting, the guys over at Firedoglake have discovered 3 of the worst (Black, Madigan, and Loeffler). These K-streeters lobbied for Sese Seko of Zaire, Somali and Equatorial Guinea dictators, Angola's Savimbi, and Saudi Arabia and Dubai- while not a totally evil nation, he was covering their tracks over the camel jockey slavery story.

And people say William Ayers is bad.
The Washington Post is on the story as well, with rundown of all the lobbyists McCain has been forced to dismiss while insisting that his chief lobbyist buddy, his campaign manager Charles Black, is not a lobbyist at all (anymore).

UPDATE from Agent X:
The campaign against McCain is having its effects.

McCain's Lobbyist Scandals Prompt Additional Scrutiny (Huffington Post)

Basically, the article says that McCain and his non-lobbyist staff wants to find out how many lobbyists are on his campaign. Apparently, he ain't know. Well, one of his crew, Craig Shirley, has left because he was working for a 527 smear group while working for McCain. Eric Burgeson, his energy policy adviser, is also out as well.

He knows NOW that he can't get away with having scumbags on his staff. How many horses will be tossed from this ship? You'll just have to wait and see . . .
