Does Axelrod have any evidence that he’s not contemptible?

[This related article is recommended in its entirety.]
“White House senior adviser David Axelrod said the U.S. Chamber of Commerce has the burden of proving false the charge by Democrats that the business group is funneling foreign money to Republican campaigns. […] “Do you have any evidence that it’s not, Bob?” Axelrod said on “Face the Nation.” […] Ed Gillespie, the former Republican National Committee chairman and one of the GOP operatives named in the DNC ad, noted that President Obama benefited from millions in undisclosed contributions in 2008 and that Republicans are now using the same rules. […] Gillespie added that it was “an unbelievable mentality” for Axelrod to assert charges about foreign contributions without backing them up.”

David Axelrod may be contemptible. In any case, he sure is trying. So are virtually all the playas swinging for the leftist team.

It has been said that desperation elicits [pick your adjective] measures, but the adverb "dangerously" is always lurking around the adjective you choose. When The Won with His finger on the nuclear button becomes desperate, however, "dangerously" becomes inadequate to the task.

Hence, these may be not only "times that try men's souls", but also times that are interesting, albeit in the Chinese sense.
