Маккейна я дюже зауважал. Но что делать, если для вычистки республиканского дерьма из конюшен Белого дома больше подходят демократы?

Тем временем Обама расчехляет пушки.

Obama Transition Announces Rules for Lobbyists in Transition

During a briefing today at the Presidential Transition Team headquarters, Obama Transition Co-Chair John Podesta announced the strictest, and most far reaching ethics rules of any transition team in history. The rules are:

• Federal Lobbyists cannot contribute financially to the transition.
• Federal lobbyists are prohibited from any lobbying during their work with the transition.
• If someone has lobbied in the last 12 months, they are prohibited from working in the fields of policy on which they lobbied.
• If someone becomes a lobbyist after working on the Transition, they are prohibited from lobbying the Administration for 12 months on matters on which they worked.
• A gift ban that is aggressive in reducing the influence of special interests.

Коротко говоря, лоббистам запрещено входить в комитет по передаче дел новому президенту. Участники комитета не могут в течении года становиться лоббистами по вопросам по которым они работали.
