Spin spin spin. Reid didn't take any of that man's money.

The K Street Project was carefully set up so none of the
lobbyists' funds ever got to democrats. Sorry gunner,
this one lands fair and square in the republicans' laps.

This is the part where you talk about, what, the teapot

The aim of untold millions is to be free to do exactly as they choose
and for someone else to pay when things go wrong.

In the past few decades, a peculiar and distinctive psychology
has emerged in England. Gone are the civility, sturdy independence,
and admirable stoicism that carried the English through the war years
.. It has been replaced by a constant whine of excuses, complaints,
and special pleading. The collapse of the British character has been
as swift and complete as the collapse of British power.
