In one of the most perhaps unintentionally hilarious starts to an article ever, the non-partisan insider publication "The Hill" has an article today titled Obama is Good for K Street Lobbyists. Just as if it were a summary of a corporate quarterly earnings report, here's the start to the article:

Although several firms rebounded during the second quarter, midyear figures still appeared to be down from where they were a year ago. Lobbyists attributed the decline to the problems of the broader economy.
