Sir:
Just to clarify: when you said “NO” former lobbyists would serve in your administration, did that mean “no” as in “none” or did that mean “no” as in “some probably will be okay”? I ask only because it looks like we’re going to end up with a couple of dozen here and there, and I just want you to have a heads-up. I don’t think it’s going to end up being a problem either way. No one in the press corps has even mentioned it.
Also: A couple of our minor cabinet secretaries are wondering if they’ll need to file 2009 tax returns. I’ve told them that if they haven’t been filing regularly for the past few years, it’s probably not a good idea to suddenly start. Thoughts?
