thing points to the disingenuous nature of the Obama camp. Take his wife's law firm Sidney-Austin, the world's sixth largest in terms of revenues at over a billion pa. They are a registered lobbyist but not all lawyers are registered lobbyists. So who contributes to the Obama campaign? Those who are not registered lobbyists. Even though the law firm is a partnership where revenues and the bonus compensation is pooled. So the work of one translates into the profit of all. Still Obama can claim that he does not take money directly from lobbyists. He does, indirectly.
