God's will: energy deregulation

Former Christian Coalition leader and current Georgia GOP head Ralph Reed volunteered to get "faith-based groups" and conservative talk shows to support energy deregulation -- on Enron's behalf -- for $380,000. The "values-based" network that people like Reed and Robertson spent the 80s and 90s building is exposed as nothing but a modern Tammany Hall, a political machine designed to help those in power screw those without it.

As a MetaFilter thread said, is it possible for comments on this to be too cynical?
