The Livingston Group And Kentucky Republicans.
Jim Pence July 29th, 2008
Remember Congressman Bob Livingston saying "I have decided to inform my colleagues and my constituents that during my 33-year marriage to my wife, Bonnie, I have on occasion strayed from my marriage. Doing so nearly cost me my marriage and my family." Bob Livingston resigned and now heads up the Livingston Group . Recently Bernie Robinson a Livingston group consultant has been very generous to Kentucky Republicans.

The Livingston Group represents Libya (Remember Pan Am 103? ) as lobbyist in Washington D.C. The Livingston Group has also represented Turkey as lobbyist in Washington D.C.
Congress Watch, an arm of Public Citizen, released a 49-page report highlighting ethical concerns about the Livingston Group’s lobbying efforts for the Turkish Government. The report details the efforts by Livingston, to secure a "$1 billion supplemental appropriation for Turkey. . . despite that country’s refusal to allow U.S. troops to use its soil as a staging area for the Iraq invasion. He also helped kill an amendment that would have formally recognized the Armenian Genocide that occurred between 1915 and 1923." The Livingston Group has received over $10 million in payments from Turkey. To read this entire report, visit:

We do not find Turkey’s refusal to allow the USA to use their soil for an unwarranted preemptive invasion of Iraq - a country that had no weapons of mass destruction - worthy of condemnation. We actually find it admirable that Turkey had the audacity to stand up to the warmongering Bush and his deceitful enablers.
Maybe we could find a better reason to attack Livingston, and Turkey, at this junction in history.
