Hastert reversal

Now the commission can have an extension.

But, then, I've said that before.

Getting that reversal was managed by more political shennanigans. It was threatened to have the extension request attached to a highway appropriations bill, and as you know, no Congressman would dare stand in the way of a highway bill. Sometimes it works for you. Sometimes it works against you. That's the way the game is played.

And of course, it's not over yet. Who knows what next ploy Hastert's team will come up with. He's not made it official yet.
