Joe's job is quite a modest one when
you consider his once-high place in GOP
counsels, and when you consider that some
lobbyists rake down around fifty grand.

However, Joe's bosses, the unsubsidized
ship owners, have pulled a neat trick
which should materially lessen his work.
In fact, it's one of the neatest tricks ever
pulled in a town which has seen all sorts
of lobby-ing tricks. For they managed to
put their former lobbyist, Lynne Mote,
in as assistant counsel of the House mer-
chant marine and fisheries committee.
