“here is a big surprise: The wife of John Huang has joined the growing legions of people under investigation for campaign finance lawbreaking who have either fled the country, taken the fifth amendment, or otherwise come up with amnesia about raising money from foreign citizens. This is not big news to most of the major media, of course. After all, it appears that most of the time all they do is read their nightly newscast straight off DNC press releases. In fact, I have a hard time telling the difference between liberal reporting on the campaign finance hearings and what the expert ``spinmeisters'' at the White House are saying. We have heard some great excuses, from ``everybody does it,'' to ``we had to cheat. Otherwise, Republicans would have won.'' Maybe some of the best excuses are these two: ``Sure, I broke the law, but it is the system's fault, and we need to reform it.'' Then there is this one: ``I don't care if they broke the law. The Republicans are on a witch hunt.'' Right. I wonder if the reforms the other side has in mind will continue to consider taking foreign money as a crime.”
