"In 1997, Fortune magazine asked Congressmen to rank the "25 most powerful" lobbying organizations in DC. In 2005, the National Journal did the same. Both times, AIPAC came in 2nd - ahead of, for instance, the AFL-CIO and the NRA, but behind the AARP[4]." I'd say it's pretty amazing that a lobbying group for a foreign country influencing our government is ranked second among ALL the thousands of lobbying groups! Yes, but the AIPAC is more likely to be made up of Israelis than CT Jews. Besides, I don't believe its CT Jews who are influencing Lieberman........I think he has his own agenda.
