I was reading this blog post that the Advocacy Director of End the Occupation, a pro-Palestinian organization, sent Sunlight over e-mail about the difficulty in obtaining a seat at a congressional committee mark-up session and was thinking about all those stories about homeless people working as line-sitters for corporate lobbyists. Lo and behold, The Daily Beast has a video report up today on that exact topic. Another aspect of the Washington influence game that most people are completely unaware of.
