Sat, 09 Aug 2008 17:36:29 GMT

All about Dave "Rubber Stamp" Camp (Duplicitous Dave)

Tue, 03 Jun 2008 21:56:00 GMT

Hey, don't take our word for it, that "Rubber Stamp" bit; GovTrack.us classifies Dave Camp as a "rank-and-file Republican" . As in, stinks of corporatism and is unable to think for himself without regular prodding from party officials or lobbyists (same diff, especially if you're a politician of the same mold as John "59 lobbyists as campaign advisers" McCain).

Love the war, hate the veteran [MichiganLiberal] (The Liberal Blog Network)

Fri, 16 May 2008 14:10:49 GMT

If there's one thing Dave Camp has been adept at doing, it's been maintaining the image that he is engaged in his district. In my college days, I used to get wave after wave of press releases from his office, and his press person used to provide me regular updates of what the Congressman was doing. One day, he showed up to the campus of CMU for an awards ceremony and got his photo snapped...
