Replacing The Squeaky Wheel...With Another One?
The New York Times:
Representative John A. Boehner won the job of House majority leader amid a post-Abramoff clamor for an overhaul of lobbying and ethics rules. But nearly six months later, the changes are still tied up in Congress. And far from trying to put the brakes on lobbyists and the money they channel into Republican coffers, Mr. Boehner, who has portrayed his ties to Washington lobbyists as something to be proud of, has stepped on the gas.Good to see that money still talks. I was beginning to worry there for a second. At least this money isn't frozen, right?
