Who is twisting and re-writing what here?

“Recently, information has come to me that this sacred situation might be twisted, re-written out of whole cloth and shopped to press outlets large and small in a vicious attempt to smear, hurt and diminish Pete Domenici, an honorable man, his extraordinary wife, Nancy, and other innocents,” Michelle Laxalt.

An honorable man known as Saint Pete, who cheated on his wife yet continued to participate in his Catholicism and conservatism? From the woman involved in St Pete’s betrayal of his extraordinary wife?

Understand: None of these people needs my forgiveness, understanding, nor respect. People are flawed. People cheat and lie. When “saints” do it, one could kindly say he’s only human. But Conservatives have raged against society’s decline at the hands of everyone but them. Conservatives present themselves as pillars and paragons. Conservatives believe they are more patriotic and more trustworthy than liberals. Perhaps they are simply bigger fools. It would be funny except for how hard they ride roughshod over the rest of society. Conservatives had earned humiliation, scorn, and derision. I don’t want to hurt Saint Pete or any of these fools. I want to see all of Conservatism with its head bowed, tears in eyes, lips trembling as it lies, “Please, baby, I won’t do it again.” We should know better.
