We are lucky that Bush was able to limit the damage to the extent he was after the Clinton years. Regardless, that is not the point of the story. The point is simply that we elect members to Congress who are supposed to represent us - instead they represent whichever lobbyist throws the most money their way. Anything you see that appears to benefit the public is of secondary consequence to it benefiting the lobbyist. There is always some delusional Democrat posting in whatever news story they can find.
