Legal bribery

The Hill has an article on Russia trying to influence the Obama administration.

my favorite passage:


“In the end, some of this just comes down to what it always does in Washington: donations, lobbying, contracts and influence — even for Russia,” said Frank Figliuzzi, the former FBI assistant director for counterintelligence.

or as a local wag said about bribery in the Philippines: They accept bribes under the table... and over the table... and with the table.

someone needs to figure out how all those guys in Washington got rich AFTER they were elected.
