Who hired U.S. Rep Dave Camp?
U. S. Representative Dave Camp is not our representative, this according to him. During a recent meeting with citizens about the war in Iraq he was quoted in the Record Eagle. “You guys are really not listening to the people,” Jim Coats told Camp. Camp responded: “I’m hired to try to reflect the views of the people I represent, but I’m also hired for my judgment.” Hired by whom? I thought we elected Representatives by voting? My mistake.
Looking into Mr. Camp’s Political Action Committee (PAC) contributions to his last “re-election” in 2006 may indicate who “hired” him. His total 2005-2006 PAC contributions were $851,771.00. The largest PAC contributions from: Finance/Insurance/RealEstate - $184,119, Health- $180,562, and Energy/Natural Resource - $91,798. Check out more about him at Open Secrets
