I didn't say that. It's not a bipartisan scandal; it's a Republican scandal, and that's why the Republicans are scurrying around trying to enact lobbying reforms.The left moons you and you kiss their ass, eh?
You deserve what you get.

I would think if you are a lobbyist you can only lobby by having clients spend their money on politicians ...what is so hard to undestand about that? ....Abromoff spending his own money is no big deal...

For some reason liberals find themselves dumbfounded when a conservative counters with questions regarding China's illegal contributions to Bill Clinton's Presidential campaign.

So, the proper reality is that rat money good and republican money bad. Who would've thunk it? Bet the progressives are going to claim that forcing the paper back to the proper reality is a big win for a free press and the truth.

Say it fairly: he told the Indian leaders whom to bribe..and they did. If he ends up in jail, they should also. They know exactly what the game is.

But the biggest story is the raw vulgarity of so many left-wing posters, which I have witnessed firsthand on MSM forums
I am in total agreement with you. And, I am sure Deborah Howell agrees with us on that point also.

Deborah Howell did everything she could to be a good liberal, and she was still excoriated by leftists. Look for her to be more obedient to the dems next time.

This is a stupid, hairsplitting argument. Abramoff didn't give any money to Democrats, but his clients did. Probably a heck of a lot more than Abramoff ever could have given the Dems. Does this version of events serve any purpose, other than to obscure what happened?

To: wjersey
(I wrote that he gave campaign money to both parties and their members of Congress. He didn't. I should have said he directed his client Indian tribes to make campaign contributions to members of Congress from both parties. )
What's the difference? The end result is the same!
To: wjersey
My husband actually counted Republicans and Democrats to whom Abramoff's money was directed, and the ratio was two Rs for every D.
For what it's worth.

So, people in both parties received donations, but it's only a Republican scandal? Wow, the liberals have never been so up-front about their bias.
