It just dawned on me that probably many in the established media actually believed Republicans were going to clean up their own corruption. I am still amazed that I could have been that trusting, but at least the media - minus Faux News - is starting to come around.
But Boehner and many rank-and-file Republicans objected to his recommendations and have said they would prefer beefing up disclosure of lobbyists' activities rather than imposing new restrictions.
Funny, that Blount would have been more pro-reform in an effort to distance himself from DeLay, but Boehner, who was not tied as much to DeLay, sees no reason to stop the corruption from which he benefits.
Meet the new boss! Same as the old boss!
