folks are getting things confused. A comment implied not being outraged made one a "brown shirt", no
doubt having little idea what that implies.

Ignorance is bliss, partial ignorance is hell.

" Lobbyists will be allowed to serve only on commissions and boards in a “representative” capacity — so long as they’re acting on behalf of a corporation, trade association or industry group and not as private citizens or representatives of the government."

Turn up the volume on the Obama Outrage Machine, that is weak stuff there to get outraged about.
