Clean Congressional Living

A True Story
The first community of cavemen a few million old age ago, invented the procedure of lobbying. This is what happened.

The Leader of the cavemen and his favourite assistants, were approached by the adult male who supplied him with the original wooden baseball clubs imbedded with crisp stones. He explained that he feared that another wooden club, admittedly of slightly better quality than his ain was being made in the caves down the road, and he was afraid that this new baseball baseball club would be chosen by the Cavemen's Head instead of his own.

To pull the attending of the Leader of the cavemen he presented him with a couple of his best pigs, respective biddies and a twine of freshly caught trout. They struck a trade and thereafter he supplied the baseball baseball clubs to the Head cave man and the other inhabitants under his leadership, who, following his advice continued to utilize the original clubs. This enabled the original baseball club maker to provide more than clients in the neighbour caves and to go on making improvements to his darling rock imbedded clubs!. Of course of study he also continued to supply the Leader Caveman with gifts that eventually included human beingnesses of both sexual activities that the Head Caveman employed as servants. The remainder is history.

The Senator was in a hurry. Another meeting at the White Person House would probably take up the whole morning time and he had a figure of things to do. He pressed the interoffice telephone system and spoke to his secretary: "Lorna, have got Paddy convey today's list"
In a few moments, his Head of Staff appeared carrying a achromatic leather- jump three ring binder. A large smiling provided some improvement to his acne-pocked face. "Senator, we hit the jackpot!"
The Senator smiled knowingly and putting his index finger in his temple said:
"I know, I Know. We have got my crisp encephalon to give thanks for it!."
Paddy sat down and placed the achromatic leather booklet on one side of the desk. He opened it and read:

"Senator, these are the entries for lone this week: A new set of golf game clubs, including the new omni-directional putter. Six brace of Rossignol skies for you and your household and the verifiers for airplane transportation system to Zurich, a reserve for a Eurocar with driver and a two hebdomad stay at the Palace Hotel in St. Moritz. The monorail people have got sent the laptop computer they promised. It is a new Toshiba that includes the up-to-the-minute communication theory software, movies, television, telephone, fax, copying attachment, alarm, human race clock..."

"Can the thing be used for typing letters?"

"I don't know. But we can always go back it and acquire a Ian Smith Aureole if you wish.."

"What else?"

"The Aerobics people have got sent another of those walking machines. We already have got got three in the business office plus the 1s you have at home, Senator"

"Send them all back. Attach a polite short letter letting them cognize that I can only net income from Aerobics if I have got a topographic point to walk, not a walking machine, for Chrissakes! They cognize all about the spread in Equality State that my married woman and I like so much. ."

"We are getting new piece of furniture in the office. The Department Shop anteroom called. They have got just received the Gallic lamps and the Italian sofas. They'll be here Monday.."

"How about the media?"

"Nothing doing so far. They decline to take the bait. Not even a ticket to a high school concert."
The senator looked at his solid gold Rolex, a little present from a transcribed nutrient processor in his state and frowned. "What makes the President desire with me today?" The assignment would maintain him from seeing his seamster who -- thanks to the Bicycle Association -- had imported respective cuts of mulct British and Italian woolens, alpaca mixes, gabardines and a pick piece of Vicuña that would be perfect for a top coat. He smiled at Paddy and asked him to continue.

"We have got also received your lifespan go throughs to the Senators games, the Miami Dolphins, Notre Dame, the Orlando Bullets, Wimbledon, the Capital Of Maine Edgar Lee Masters and the finals of the Girls National Soccer Championships in Akron, Ohio. But, wait, here come ups the jackpot!"
The senator relished Mickey's enthusiasm and cheerfulness. Besides, he was a workaholic and did almost everything around the office. When it was clip to direct those component letters, Paddy was the first to begin the folding, labeling and the stuffing and licking of the envelopes. And he did not have got to maintain him on the payroll. Paddy was a courtesy of an HMO.

"Quick, state me!"

"Senator, clasp on to your amendments! The Nipponese Electronics Group, you know, they pack Sony, Matushita, Mtsubishi, Fuji, Panasonic, Sharp, Canon, Aiwa, and a hundred others have got decided to observe your birthday by giving you Costa Rica!"
