Obama Lifts Ban on Lobbyists! Back to Business as Usual

Obama Lifts Ban on Lobbyists! Back to Business as Usual | NewsBusters.org

Roll Call is reporting that during the typical Friday afternoon document dump -- a practice used to hide actions that might prove somewhat embarrassing to the White House -- the administration quietly announced that some of the former restrictions on lobbying ballyhooed about during the late campaign have been lifted. And now, we have to wonder: will the media notice this sudden change? I mean, a whole day has gone by and so far only Roll Call has mentioned it.

In any case, let special interests ring, baby!
