Change: Part 1

From a recent Newsweek story....

With Democrats in control on Capitol Hill, the incoming Obama team shouldn't have to worry much about hostile probes. Last week's confirmation hearings for top Obama nominees were largely congenial (though there are still a few ongoing flaps, including Treasury nominee Tim Geithner's tax and "nanny" issues). Legislative insiders say a reshuffling of key committee posts in the new Congress will ensure that investigations of Obama's actions will proceed with caution.

It's increasingly apparent that "Change" was more about swapping out the pigs than cleaning up the mud.
