This certainly isn't breaking news, but I was beyond astonished to pick up last Thursday's USA Today to read an Opinion piece by Cal Thomas in which he asserts (from the
SacBee):
More recently, some of the same Democrats now lashing Republicans for their real and perceived sins have, themselves, taken money from Abramoff.

Hello Tribune Media Services, is there anybody home? This is
after Katie Couric admitted that
technically Howard Dean was indeed right after all, this was
after Deborah Howell got so publicly reamed for equivocating an independently given donation to an Abramoff-directed, quid pro quo donation that the WaPo had to shut down and filter their blog, and TMS
still publishes this shit?!?!! THIS WAS NO MISTAKE -- not even Cal Thomas is so god.damn.clueless that he didn't know it was a lie. Not even the worthless rag of
USA Today could have let such an AHEM small detail slip by.
