Gov. Haley Barbour, chair of the Republican Governors Association, was in Oklahoma last night hosting a $250 per plate fundraiser for Congresswoman Mary Fallin’s gubernatorial campaign. Barbour, a long time Washington lobbyist, is just the latest in a long line of help from Washington that Congresswoman Fallin has called in to aid her bid to be Oklahoma’s next Governor.Barbour is the very definition of a special interest. He earned $42 million lobbying for health insurance, big tobacco and others. He was responsible for a $50 billion tax break for tobacco companies.
With Mary Fallin reaching out to special interests such as Haley Barbour just trying to get into the Governor’s office we can be sure that if she makes it in things will be no different, and probably worse.
Mary Fallin doesn’t care about Oklahoman’s and their interests, she cares about here out of state and out of touch special interests friends.
