DC Attorney David Rivkin: Today’s “Avarice” Award Winner Congratulations to…. DC Attorney David Rivkin Today’s “Avarice” Award Winner Dave was hired via a no-bid contract by Speaker of the House John “The Bone” Boehner to prosecute the GOP’s frivolous lawsuit against Obama. Dave works for Baker Hostetler, a well connected law firm that has contributed millions to Republican candidates throughout the country. Johnny and his GOP minions in the House, found it acceptable to permit Rivkin to bill the taxpayers $500 an hour to prosecute their hyperbolic (BS) lawsuit. In a lame attempt at levity, Jonny claims that he placed a “firm cap” of $350,000 as payment for fees to Dave and his firm. Of course this is a total joke because one can be assured that when this lawsuit is finally dismissed by the courts, Dave’s legal fees and costs will likely exceed $2 million, if not more. And why would Johnny give a damn how much it costs the taxpayers? After all, this is the same Johnny that authorized over 50 votes to defund and/or repeal Obamacare at a cost to the taxpayers of at least $50 million. Lastly, not only do the taxpayers get hosed paying Dave $500 an hour to pursue this moronic lawsuit; they also have to pay the lawyers at the Department of Justice to defend it. Congrats Dave; keep up the good work! We should let everyone know of your amazing record as one of
