When that Circuit Court Judge, with major holdings in oil companies, "overruled" Obama's moratorium on new deep-water well drilling in the Gulf, did the media cry "Foul!" over that obvious conflict of interest?

Or how about certain Secretaries Of State (e.g., Katherine Harris and Ken Blackwell) who were active in the political campaigns of candidates while overseeing the election rules (e.g., voter roll purges, distribution of voting machines) and the vote counting?   Or how about the many members of Congress who hold major stock in the companies that are directly affected by their legislation?

Methinks there be a bit of selective attention and even selective prosecution afoot.
