In a Daily Camera letter to the editor, writer Sheri Hay from Erie is concerned that we don’t stand up against lobbyists. Here’s one paragraph…
We have become complacent citizens and are no longer constructively engaged in our own government. This indolence allows easy work for corporations to influence “Our Representatives” for the corporations` benefit. Companies do not make significant investments without the intent for a significant return on that investment. OpenSecrets.org is an excellent Web site that tracks the funds politicians receive and I encourage everyone to monitor it regularly.
(bold is mine).
Obviously Sheri hasn’t heard of the Tea Party movement. Perhaps she gets all her news from teh Daily Camera? Inquiring minds want to know.
