Jim Hightower, Other Words: *Faster than you can say 'business as usual,' freshman Republicans on the House Financial Services Committee have begun to execute Wall Street s agenda. They came, they saw, they were conquered. That sums up the fate of many tea-partying freshmen in the House of Representatives. As soon as they arrived, the corporate lobbying corps came to visit, saw what these supposed rebels were made of, and quickly conquered them without a fight. The forces of big business only needed to lay out some campaign cash. Faster than you can say 'business as usual,' budding lawmakers snatched up the money and began to execute the lobbyists' agenda.'
