The Washington Times reports Craig Obey — son of House Appropriations Committee Chairman David Obey — is the chief lobbyist for the National Parks Conservation Association.

I am just beginning to wonder why NOW fox news would point this out, when the darn thing is about to become law anyway, as it can even without one Republican voting for it.
