They are the scourge of American politics. They are unaccountable and play by a different set of rules.

But Coble has been smart enough to dodge the charges. He's been sympathetic to everyone's concerns and gives the impression he's doing all he can.

This is a loophole that needs to be closed. Their ought to be full sunshine and limits on these activities.
