Cape May County - Let's get a feel for the readers, first put all of put your emotions aside, now, what do you think is worse 1) a government employee asking a foreign country to find dirt on a political opponent during a one on one phone call (with 100 people listening in), or 2) a government employee conspiring with others to pay a foreign government for a fake/false document to make up dirt on their opponent ?
