Fannie Mae Lobbyist Named As Joe Biden's Chief of Staff...
lol...
NY Times:
WASHINGTON — President-elect Barack Obama on Saturday named Ronald A. Klain, a former lobbyist and Clinton White House lawyer, as chief of staff to Vice President-elect Joseph R. Biden Jr.
His selection is one of several early appointments to Mr. Obama’s White House and transition staff that calls attention to the limits of Mr. Obama’s sweeping self-imposed ethics rules, laid out to fulfill a campaign pledge to “wrest the federal government out of the hands of lobbyists.”
Mr. Klain, who was chief of staff to former Vice President Al Gore, is an executive at Revolution, the investment company of the AOL founder Steve Case.
He worked until 2005 as a lobbyist at the law firm of O’Melveny & Myers, where he lobbied for clients including the failed mortgage giant Fannie Mae; an industry group seeking help with asbestos lawsuits; a drug maker under federal investigation; the cable and media giant Time Warner; and "an airline".

Just how long do you think it will take for Americans, who voted for Obama, to realize they have been bamboozled?
ahhh z, good question.
Since those that voted for "the one" are completely hypnotized, spellbound and in awe of "the messiah", I'd say that even if they did realize it... they will NEVER admit it.
That is... unless they can figure out a way to redefine the word "bamboozled" to mean something good.... kinda like they did with "abortion".
Then they will all be in support of bamboozling.
