If something like this had happened during the Bush administration people here would be going nuts, yet it looks like I'm the first one to post on this.

All administrations are the same in most ways. The politicians are pawns in the game. The game itself is run by its principles, not by people. Sign of the times. It's sad that people like you act as if this is a surprise, when everyone knows that this is happening, and that there isn't much that can be done.

Not all administrations are like this. Reagan's administration as far as I know wasn't, nor were Bush Sr. and Bush Jr. Heck I don't think Carter or Clinton pulled this kind of a shannigan either.
