The Senate Indian Affairs Committee was investigating Abramoff and his partner, former DeLay aide Michael Scanlon, for squeezing more than $60 million in fees, and political contributions to DeLay-related politicians, from Abramoff's clients, Indian tribes which own gambling casinos. Grover Norquist, Ralph Reed, and Reed's religious networks all shared in the loot. The Washington law office of Greenberg, Traurig, was Abramoff's headquarters for both the Indian scams and the SunCruz caper.
IMO this asshole and his kind should have to pay restitution of every single dime, hard labor on work prisons, pea farms, something besides a federal country club prison....

Regarding the wackos - If they lead, they will follow!

I blogged about this on Kos last night. I have links to prominent Christian Conservative Churches in the diary. SPREAD THE WORD!!!

Excellent sound bite for any election. And I mean EXCELLANT.

Abramoff ( or Scanlon) has referred to Indian clients in racist terms in e-mail. Sorry, can't remember the term.

Hopefully this will keep little Ralphie Reed from gaining more power.

Abramoff is the worst traitor I've ever seen come to the country. He's so involved in every coverup, the 9-11 whitewash, the works.

That is one of the downfalls of being a one trick pony ... that is ... being a one issue political participant ...

I warned many of the folk who voted for Bush because they thought he was anti this or anti that ... politics is more than one issue.

Those that do not get this will be handled.

Those wing nut and wacko also make real bad poll workers.

That's the problem with blind faith. It makes it easy for unscrupulous leaders to lead the faithful around by the nose.

I don't think that the fundies will wake up, Bush threw a few billion of our childrens (read deficit) tax dollars at their masters, to shut em up and break the government bank at the same time, thats part of the real agenda that the Cons are up to
Pretty soon all there will be is for profit, private corporations, and a lot of military spending sucking up our bucks, with no help for anyone who is unfortunate enough to fall through the cracks

The GOP called the religious right a bunch of WACKOS?

Hey.... I'm starting to like the GOP!

Where did the idea come from to let Native Americans run casinos, anyway? Was it an implied apology for using the Union Army to grab their land for the gold underneath, back in the 1860s? Was it recompense for building railroads across their property at the same time, and not compensating them fairly? Was it an acknowledgement that all those "Cowboys and Indians" films we saw 50 years ago were nothing more than propaganda?

Now, it turns out they've been swindled again. As they say in the middle of a cowboy film, "This is where I came in."
