So, here's a question. If you exclude people who've recently been lobbyists, why would you not exclude people who've recently served on the boards of corporations that present conflicts of interest?
Obama's national security adviser: Boeing and Chevron.
And what about people who own stock in corporations that present conflicts of interest (something that's gotten Cheney indicted in south Texas, but that otherwise seems to go completely unremarked in Washington)?
At what point do "ethics" requirements cease to be attempts to accomplish anything ethical?
