Think You can't change what congress? Congressional Ethics Committee backs down after REAL LIBERAL media busts them

On July 2, the Congressional umm, Ethics Committee issued a small item about changes in what congress members had to report on their expense reports. See, the "Ethics" Committee(and I'm using that term very loosely) decided that those vacations that are paid for by corporations/private individuals? Well, its just redundancy to report those on the personal expense reports of congress members, let's just report those to the Clerk of the House and anyone who is really interested can find them there. Remember the saying, "needle in a haystack"? Oh, but it was done for EFFICIENCY. Not trying to hide anything, never!
Well. First CREW  wrote about this bullshit, since most people have no idea that we even have a clerk of the house, but they do know how to check their respective house member's financial sheet, if so inclined. 
Then we had a statement from Nancy Pelosi who agreed with those evil liberal folks that this should not be allowed. It had been done in the past and caused people to end up in jail, after we having to pay $$$ for the court cases. Most Liberal media posts picked it up and reported it, but I did not hear about it on the corporate media sites: ABC, NBC, CBS, of course FAUX NEWS, although Free Speech TV did cover it, along, again, with most liberal areas of the media.
So....on July 3rd? There was so much fall out(yes, we thinking people, aka, liberals know how to use our phones, email, twitter, etc.) that the Ethics Committee reversed their ruling and, now again, Congress members must report, in financial statements, any junket from private areas.
So, tell me again how it doesn't matter if you speak up? Don't vote? This shows that when we pay attention and do something, we make a difference.
Good JOB! Keep it UP!
