Rep. Lewis Lawyers Up

K Street lobbyists, the scandal that just keeps giving.... Republican California Congressman Jerry Lewis spent $200,000 last month on his lawyers. Federal investigators are poking around the relationships between the House Appropriations Committee Chairman and lobbyist Bill Lowery. More GOP pay to play corruption in Washington. At least the lawyers are making out. We'd all hate to see them in the soup lines.
