Pretense and make-believe are thick in the air in Barack Obama’s Washington, where one’s alignment with the regnant values and priorities — one’s allegiance to, or at the very least one’s acquiescence in, the programs of the environmental lobby, the union lobby, the abortion lobby — acts as a sort of baptism, cleansing the ethical and intellectual impurities"

Right. The teachers' unions, for example, are not acting out of self-interest when they doante to Democrats. Nope, they are just looking out "for the children", as opposed to the boogeyman Kock brothers.
Kudos to the Koch brothers, who are clearly living rent-free in Harry Reid's head.
