As usual, onl

Welcome to hope and change, a world where politics as usual will be banished:

"If there is any doubt that President Obama's plan to overhaul U.S. health care is the hottest topic in Congress, just ask the 3,300 lobbyists who have lined up to work on the issue," Bloomberg reports.

"That's six lobbyists for each of the 535 members of the House and Senate . . .

And that's just on one issue. Simple common sense should tell you than lobbyists won't go away if you're trying to make government even bigger and more influential than it already is. It's beginning to look like the government is in the hands of the dumbest smart man in America.
