Hypocrisy: What Change Can We Expect?

First Jim Johnson, now Chris Dodd (D,CT) and kent Conrad(D,ND) senator. The hypocrisy of Washington politicians never ceases to amaze me. Here was Obama running around during the Primary hammering corporations, and Countrywide Bank in particular and he goes and select Jim Johnson to head up his VP selection committee. Did he not vet the man? Oh wait! No he did not and didn't feel he should but a day later, Poof! Gone!

No there this potentially big scandal brewing if Republicans get their way and have hearing about conflict of interest about the mortgage loans they received. Why does none of these things surprise me, since Democrats are always accusing Republicans of snuggling up to and protecting big Corporations. I s this what Obama thinks he's going to change? Everyone is Washington is either a lobbyist, friends of lobbyists and people who know how washington works! The idea that Obama is going to come to Washington, become President, and NEVER has anything to do with these people, particularly since he is a neophyte is so ludicrous it is not even funny.
