Quite puzzling why he doesn't provide link or citation up front for this valuable list. Try http://www.capitaleye.org/abramoff_recips.asp
Pelosi is nowhere in this? Darn!
I'd like to see some figures on the money donated to WA State legislators in the run up to the vote on expanding gambling outside of the Indian reservations. Murray and Cantwell received a lot of money on the national level, but I'd bet that there are a ton of state legislators on the take from Abramoff, as well.
I was wondering....thanks for the post. This is big time. Now, are any Republicans implicated? If so, anyone know who they are?
How true. I just read about this in USAToday, today, and I walked away thinking that only Republicans received donations.
Re comment #1, what I overheard while my wife was watching one of the TV network "newscasts" was that there may have been some Democrats who accepted Abrahamoff's money. Hah! 39 of 45 Senators. Yep, that is technically "some."
Is there a way to find out about the state legislators on the take?
Yes she is. Way down towards the bottom Pelosie got $3000
There is the WHOLE list. My point was to bring up the DEMOCRAT ties since more then enough attention is being paid to this "GOP Scandal". I am curious why the OTHER side of this story is being spiked by the Failed Media?
I would think it would be more misappropriation of funds for purposes other than those intended when donated. the lifestyles of the key folks around Abramoff indicate they lived very well, some folks wonder how and now may get a chnace to understand how they did it.
Either way, it will reach deep into the leadership ranks of both parties... if the investigation doesn't get quashed that is or other major events occur and knock it off the radar a bit.
Thanks for posting.
Great post. How do I get some of that money?
But isn't she a felon anyway? Or am I confusing her with someone else?
BTTT
Thanks for the live link!
Ah, I wondered who would bring up this very important point!
