Lobbyists for the Libyan dictator

"So, to get the full picture of Libya's lobbying influence over your lawmakers, start with Marcus Baram's broader piece on the D.C. firms serving a wide swath of Mideast nations and then check out Laura Rozen's more Libya-specific piece in Politico. There are several prominent firms in the mix, including The Livingston Group and White and Case LLP. The most interesting player, by far, is neocon mainstay Richard Perle, who -- per Rozen -- "traveled to Libya twice in 2006 to meet with Qadhafi, and afterward briefed Vice President Dick Cheney on his visits, according to documents released by a Libyan opposition group in 2009.""
