Cyrk DeLay tymczsem

rosnie w oczach:

Jack Abramoff has the makings of a gift that keeps on giving. There were
already enough political land mines afield from Abramoff’s work with DeLay,
his indictment for wire fraud, defrauding Indian tribes to support himself
and the GOP, and representing shady business owners in the Marianas, but
investigators now have Abramoff tied to the odious Interior Department of
Gale Norton, and the recently departed J. Steven Griles. You’ll remember
Griles as the former industry lobbyist whom BushCo brought in to pillage
public lands for a couple years, only to get him out of town before people
caught up to everything he may have touched during his tenure. Well,
Abramoff’s associates are talking, and this problem sounds like it will at
least go to Norton and beyond to the White House.

      Lobbyist Jack Abramoff and an associate famously collected $82 million in
      lobbying and public relations fees from six Indian tribes and devoted a lot of
      their time to trying to persuade Republican lawmakers to act on their clients'
      behalf.

      But Abramoff didn't work just with Republicans. He oversaw a team of two dozen
      lobbyists at the law firm Greenberg Traurig that included many Democrats.
      Moreover, the campaign contributions that Abramoff directed from the tribes went
      to Democratic as well as Republican legislators.
      I to z tego samego zrodla:

      PS. Zawsze zastanawialo mnie dlaczego dziennikarze staraja sie pomijac pewne
      fakty, ktore i tak wyjda na jaw.
      Schmidt pisze: "...defrauding Indian tribes to support himself and the GOP,..."
      wiedzac, ze pieniadze szly do obu partii. Jest to tym bardziej zabawne
      podejscie, ze skadinad wiemy, iz lobbysci pracuja dla klienta a nie dla partii
      a ich celem jest przepchniecie sprawy klienta przez Kongres i w zwiazku z tym
      pracuja ze wszystkimi ktorzy maja wplyw na cokolwiek.

        This story is about one thing: corruption. There is simply no defending
        corruption no matter which side of the aisle it takes place.

        Bottom line, Abramoff, Delay and co. are an evil greedy fucks. Any one who
        defends this bunch and their behaviour deserves to be called a jackass, period.

          Mysle, ze dajesz sie poniesc wyobrazni i ulegasz urabiaczom opinii.
          Jak to mozliwe, ze DeLay jest greedy fuck a Daschle, Reed i Gephardt to anioly i
          przyklady uczciwosci. Nie chce tu bronic De Laya, ktory albo obroni sie sam albo
          upadnie jednak do tej pory nie zauwazylem aby prokuratura wysuwala przeciwko
          niemu oskarzenia.
