Reid: I'm not Corrupt, and I'm Keeping the Money

How is that again, Harry?


"Don't lump me in with Jack Abramoff. This is a Republican scandal," Reid told Fox News Sunday, saying he never received any money from Abramoff.

Reid, like many members of Congress, Democrats and Republicans, has received campaign contributions from Abramoff clients. Some lawmakers have returned those donations, but Reid gave no indication he would do so.

He never received any money, and he won't give back the money he didn't take in the first place. What is the definition of a honest politician again?

1 He tried the same line on the wire-tapping thing. Yes I was informed months ago, but it's all the president's fault (and it was wrong). Something like that. It was too funny watching him try to dodge the question the first time, and get really pissed when Wallace repeated the question, forcing him to answer Chris Wallace rocks.

2 I lived in Nevada for 17 years and listened to our Senator Reid talk way too many times. He always seemed to manage to work in the fact he'd grown up poor in Searchlight and had spent most of his adult life in service to Nevada. Since he became a multi-millionaire in the process one can't help but wonder just who he was really serving.
