No political appointees in an Obama-Biden administration will be permitted to work on regulations or contracts directly and substantially related to their prior employer for two years. And no political appointee will be able to lobby the executive branch after leaving government service during the remainder of the administration.
I don't know what is up Campbell Brown's ass. Obama never said he would never, ever have a formerlobbyist in his administration. Nor did he say that a person who served in his administration could never, ever work as a lobbyist ever again.
Sounds like partisan parsing to me.
Note the "for 2 years" window.
Her head, perhaps?
I've found every segment I've ever watched borderline hysterical. As best I can tell her character is tasked with showing indignation.
