Not to the extent the (R)'s are. It's NO CONTEST. If that article had Obama instead of Boehner as the subject, you'd be all over him, Jim.

Here's your hero John Boehner in earlier days, Jim:

Handing out tobacco company checks on the House floor to buy votes to kill anti-tobacco legislation. He thought they were tobacco company checks, but he hands out SO many checks..What a hero!

But, he thinks it's WRONG...

"I see, vote for a Dems, they aren't tied to lobbyists?"

No, the lobbyists are everywhere. But, I have yet to see a Democrat pass out checks from lobbyists on the floor of the House when a vote is underway on an issue affecting the companies hiring the lobbyists like Boehner did.
