And yet again

Ms Howell:

I've heard from lots of angry readers about the remark in my column Sunday that lobbyist Jack Abramoff gave money to both parties. A better way to have said it would be that Abramoff "directed" contributions to both parties.

That would be a better way to say something.

It is not a better way to say: "My readers are correct, Jack Abramoff gave not a penny to Democrats, despite my assertion. I was wrong, they were right."

Thank you
