I tend to agree - by that measure we are all guilty of eating the fruit from the forbidden tree.
The left-leaners are just demeaning conservatives for doing exactly what they did when Abramoff, Foley, etc. were in the crosshairs.
Exactly! But what boggles the minds of some - is their feigned outrage over their own tactics being used on them!
