Charlie Black, Mega-Lobbyist

By The Daily Dish

Hilzoy has another devastating post about the past career of one of Washington's more established whores lobbyists:

That was what Charlie Black was lobbying for: the support [Jonas] Savimbi needed to utterly destroy his country. Thanks to Black's skill as a lobbyist, and his apparent lack of a conscience, Savimbi got it.

This is John McCain's chief political advisor. Think about it.
