I doubt the Guinness people keep track of how quickly politicians reverse course. If they did they'd have to distinguish between individual politicians, who can reverse on a dime, if a dime lasts 12 hours or one news cycle, and governing bodies, like Congress, who naturally take a big longer.
I suspect Congress just set a new record: on Monday the big budget deal included a cut on crop insurance administrative costs; by the time the deal had passed early this morning (in the Senate), the cut was dead as a doornail.
Shows the clout of the insurance agents, and the usual hypocrisy of those who rail against government subsidies.
