Chairman of the Democratic National Committee, Howard Dean

Dean:...We need to know who Jack Abramoff met with in the White House and did he meet with the president in the White House. That's public information, and we're putting in a FOIA request to make sure that the American people know the extent of this lobbying scandal. Does it reach into the White House in addition just to the Republicans in Congress?

3. It looks like, on down the transcript,

Dean is waffling and has decided that some dems HAVE gotten some Abramoff-directed money! What the hell is going on here? This does not fit the FEC report or the facts as we know them.
