Why ? Everyone knows, or should know that he made a ton, a BIG ton of money after leaving office as a lobbyist, as many politicians do. He made a lot of money.
The thread itself was only intended to throw mud, thus any change would have been welcome.
It has absolutely not one thing to do wit our current world or politics, except maybe a discussion on the lobbyist trade.
He was very comfortable, and made some money in real estate as well, but the biggest chunk was as a lobbyist.
So you sort of distort the facts when you refer to him as an ex teacher.
