"I saw the McLaughlin Group today, and it was very sobering. Tony Blankley, the respected Editor of the Washington Times, former Press Secretary to Speaker Newt Gingrich, a man with tremendous contacts on Capitol Hill, agreed with Eleanor Clift that the Abramoff scandal will be labeled a "Republican scandal" simply because we are the majority controlling party. Most shocking to me was Tony's next statement that up to six Republican congressman could find themselves in trouble with the law."

I heard that too and must confess it got my attention!

Guess the in the closet Democrats pretending to be "Conservatives Pundits" need this thread emailed them. Notice how quick the supposedly "Conservative" in the Junk Media are to just regurgitate the "Conventional Wisdom" instead of the facts. Maybe Blankely and Lowry at al should be talking about THIS list and just how much potential it has to bit Democrats very had on the butt instead of just regurgitating the DNC Talking Points fed to them by their Junk Media Cronies.

So the Democrat Party is running a TV ad claiming Democrats "Didn't know Jack". OH Really? Let's see what a Non Partisan Campaign Watchdog group says.

Here is the WHOLE Open Secrets list for those who "Want to be fair".

Patty Murray (D-Wash) $40,980

Charles B. Rangel (D-NY) $36,000

Harry Reid (D-Nev) $30,500

(By way of comparison here is that "EVIL Republican" Tom Delay-Tom DeLay (R-Texas) $30,500
