Lott, Hastert; Retiring For Dollars!

Two key Congressional Republicans, Senator Trent Lott, a former majority leader and Congressman Dennis Hastert, once Speaker of the House, announced they will be leaving Congress soon. Suppose it has something to do with the change in the time limit which is now a one year wait before a former member can come back as a lobbyist? As of the first of next year this will be extended to two years before ex-congressmen can lap up the big bucks on K Street. Coincidence? Some say there are no coincidences.
