Dick Durbin and his wife – Two swamp creatures from the Black Lagoon

Arkansas Senator denies hearing ‘shithole’ remark from Dick Durbin

Where were the GOPers last week when the story broke? First it was “I don’t recall hearing those words.”  Durbin has a history of lying and after all he is just another swamp creature. His wife is a lobbyist don’t you know.

Don’t you love these sanctimonious tweeps who feed at the trough? The new thing is you just have your wife scurry about Congress and other governmental agencies in the role as a “lobbyist” and guess what happens? A little “something” finds its way into a bill.

Flashback to The Chicago Tribune . It appears Senator Dick Durbin’s wife is a lobbyist . It appears Dick Durbin voted on the Department of Education budget which had money that wound up with Eastern Illinois University.

Loretta Durbin, the wife of Sen. Dick Durbin, began lobbying in 1998. The following list at the link below includes her clients since 2000, the earliest year for which state lobbying disclosure records are available online. Her Springfield-based firms have lobbied the governor’s office, the General Assembly and state agencies for its clients, but she said she does not lobby at the federal level to avoid conflicts of interest with her husband.  The list of her clients is dated, but you get the drift.
