J.C. Watts shilling get rich quick schemes on late night info-mercials!!
Oh how the mighty have fallen!!!

Shilling for "National Grants Conference" - basically saying the Gov has all sorts of programs to give out cash - but of course - nobody knows about them!

What's his problem anyway - jeezzz...guess he wasnt up for some lobbying...

2. next to bald faced pyramid scheme offers, get rich quick seminars,
get rich quick books and cassette tape sets are the biggest scams. I particularly like the seminars where they advise you to conduct get rich quick seminars. It's sort of get rich quick recursion.

3. That's sorta sad in a way
I'd feel sorry for his decline if he weren't an opportunistic hack.

5. Just like his sister "Chocolate"
The choice to become a black shill for the Republican Party may have been a wise career move, but it is a position Watts's father has likened to "a chicken voting for Colonel Sanders."

Darlene Watts, the Congressman's 35-year-old youngest sister, has no more in common with her brother's upright Republican persona than does their father. Darlene is known on the streets of Oklahoma City as "Chocolate." The woman's criminal record includes a 1996 arrest for "engaging in an act of lewdness." Chocolate had been picked up while working at PB's, an Oklahoma City strip club where the entertainers were ostensibly accepting food stamps in exchange for table-dances.

10. Well, you can credit the Reagan administration for creating a job
for JC Watts - the Reagan administration was the one which cleared the way for informercials posing as "fact" . . .
