It’s a real commentary on the public trough that hacks like Lockhart and the Clintons (and, let’s face it, GOP hacks like Denny Hastert) all seem to end up gazillionaires after a few years in powerful D.C. positions.
I think there's a great difference in the power wielded by the Speaker of the House and the President's Press Secretary. What favors can a Press Secretary grant?
