Sold their last remaining tattered shred of integrity

I once asked a local lawyer about a blatant act of police fudging a report, noting this must happen a lot, and he just twitched and pulled at his eyebrow like that psychiatrist in Miracle on 34th Street (the original, of course). That's when I realized he'd compromised his soul long ago to work with the system.

It's long since been clear that these Old Newsies have gone far beyond mere liberal dementia and have actually sold their last remaining tattered shred of integrity. The coverup on F&F is tantamount to accessory to murder.

It's an old story. "You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him."
