		<description>Well, Mac- that&#039;s my point: Abramoff is a Republican and gives to Republicans legally and illegally in exchange for influence on Capital Hill on how to spend your money.

Regarding money laundering- I guess you&#039;ll have to explain why Abramoff would be giving money in secret to the Democrats when he was unwilling to give it in public.  A facade of bipartisanship would have served him well you&#039;d think.

But even beyond his personal habits of donating to the GOP he persuaded Indian tribes that had traditionally been huge supporters of the Democrats to give to the GOP.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;I donâ€™t expect Democrats to be dragged down with him.&lt;/em&gt;

Not even Democrats who might be found guilty of illegally receiving money from Abramhoff?</description>

		<description>Well, as Minority Leader I don&#039;t expect him to single out any Democrats at this point.  He can let the Majority Leader or non-partisan watchdogs do that if necessary.

But Abramoff is a lifelong Republican activist.  I don&#039;t expect Democrats to be dragged down with him.</description>

		<description>To an extent, Preston, I agree. But so far, none of the Senators that he singled out have been charged with (and certainly not convicted) any wrong doing.

The moment they are, though, I&#039;ll be the first to widely condemn them. 

Another reason I believe his apology to be necessary and his initial comments to be assinine, is that he only singled out Republican Senators...when there are reportedly Democrats involved in the Abramhoff scandal as well.

If you&#039;re going to call a spade a spade, you have to be honest enough to do it across both sides of the aisle.

I do believe there is a vast and pervasive &quot;culture of corruption&quot; in DC. I just don&#039;t believe it&#039;s isolated to one particular party.</description>

		<description>My question to Senator Reid is what&#039;s to apologize for?

Call a spade a spade.  Call a crook a crook.</description>
