1. The Daily Kos had the list the other day - all Republicons.
Try looking there, or do a search here.

5. I'm afraid you've been drinking the kool-aid.
Where did you get your information? The aforementioned Kos item proves that any sort of Dem connections are 2 and 3 people removed from Abramoff - such as via the Indian tribes that Abramoff cheated. Please do a bit of research before you blindly pass on Radical RW talking points.

11. ClassWarrior, did you see CSPAN this am? Lamb was on w/
a journalist from WaPo and he asserted out of the 20 or so people involved, 11 were Dems. Named Dorgan and Reid. Now, I don't believe it at all, but CSPAN made it an issue.
And if Dems are involved illegally, they should also be punished.

14. Don't want to fight. Just want to share the gif showing Dems involved
And wonder who is right. Dems involved? Or no Dems involved?

2. might be faster to figure which members probably AREN'T involved
If Denny Rehberg got Abramoff $$ (and he did)seems unlikely they missed anyone in the GOP.
