The state lobbying commission wants to know how much corporations spent to wine and dine New York lawmakers and delegates during last week's Democratic National Convention in Boston (LIKE FUCKING REDSOX TICKETS AND BEER AT CHEERS! how petty and low can the repukes go???

<snip>
the Temporary(repuke) State Commission on Lobbying has contacted Eli Lilly & Co., Eastman Kodak, Entergy Nuclear Operations, AT&T, Keyspan Energy Corp. and Citigroup to find out what they spent and who they invited to various social events.

The information could help the commission determine if any of the companies spent more than $75 on any of the elected officials. A gift of more than $75 from a lobbyist or company lobbying in Albany is illegal under state law. According to an opinion rendered at the request of Republican National Convention organizers.

THIS IS TRULY DISGUSTING! AND I HOPE DEMS REMEMBER IT COME AUGUST 29TH
