Top "Republicans" Give Up Abramoff Donations

I love the Democratic headlines that always come from the AP: "Top Republicans Give Up Abramoff Donations." It is absolutely true that GOP leaders, including Bush, DeLay and Roy Blunt have all received donations linked to the indicted lobbyist Jack Abramoff.

What the article fails to mention, however, is that many prominent Democrats, including Sen. Kent Conrad (ND) and leader Harry Reid (NV) have also received donations - but they have so far refused to return them!

And in response to Nancy Pelosi that this is the "most corrupt Republican Congress ever," perhaps she should remind herself of just a few of the Clinton scandals.
