    I think it’s typical, yeah. I don’t think it’s fine. I have no expectation of things ever being fine in government so I’m hardly surprised.

    I also think it’s less egregious (so far) than, for example, Obama running on “hope and change” then renewing or expanding all of Bush’s worst excesses, the things we hoped he would change.
