Most Promising Scandal of 2006

Forget Scooter and the CIA leak. Or Bushie's rant about who leaked the fact that he's spying on Americans without warrants (that retroactive warrant available under Patriot Act just wasn't good enough).

The scandal to pay attention to is Jack Abramoff, whose guilty plea is going to be setting up a whole lot of dominos. While Abramoff was passing around the bribe money, there were people taking it. And some of those people are in Congress.

There are some nervous nellies up there these days. Sleeping well these days, DeLay? (DeLay was given three overseas trips and more than $70,000 from Abramoff, his associates and tribal clients for his campaign committees.)

i understand there's quite a lot of money flowing backwards down capitol hill, towards someplace outside of the congressional offices. i might take a wild guess here that this is abramoff payola? is this too far out there? can i maybe get my mitts on some?
my favorite part of all of this is his abuse of the native americans he was bamboozling. all those emails calling them "morons," "troglodytes," and stuff? priceless. this guy was at the heart of the conservative ascendency. i think it speaks volumes about the "character" of the people staffing it.
now it's all over except the fallout, which i await with glee. we can wait to see if keith o. adds the abramoff plea for mercy to his apologist hall of fame...
completely off the subject, or maybe not, this thought: do you think the bushies tapped the kerry campaign's phones? monitored their emails? any way to find this out? any hackers out there worth their salt?

On the last topic, nah, I don't think so. I think the Dems did what they always do. Self-destruct. Or in this case, didn't take on those stupid swift boat morons head on.
