YouTube Description
as posted by the channelJanuary 6, 2006.
On the C-SPAN morning call-in program, the topic is lobbying and money and politics.
The guest is from the American League of Lobbyists… Here’s one of the calls.
Good morning, so, you are either stupid or naive, or whatever. If you are a low-level aid, you know good and well that if I were to call my congressman, who is Frank Wolf, I'm not going to get an audience with him unless I take him to Charlie Palmer's steakhouse right down on 101 Constitution Avenue. I am not going to get a call-back from him. I am not going to get a regular letter. I’m going to get a form letter thanking me for my interest.
Ah, Charlie Palmer Steak. The caller got the address correct. And it was actually the second mention of Charlie Palmer on "Washington Journal" that morning.
But -- there likely won’t be many more mentions of Charlie Palmer on C-SPAN … Or anywhere else…. Charlie Palmer – the steakhouse one block from the U.S. Capitol -- has shut down..
• How much money did political influencers spend at Charlie Palmer?
• Which political notables were famous for going there?
• And what did the C-SPAN audience think of all the lobbying and influence served up at Charlie Palmer?
Find out in the latest episode of C-SPAN’s podcast “The Weekly” – as we say farewell to Charlie Palmer … Farewell to all the steak … and farewell to all the money.
