Bu$h doesn't know Jack. We all know that.

What else is new? As far as Abramoff is concerned..since when does a Repug not know the big money people in the Repug party. C'mon. Repugs live and breath money. Bunnypants doesn't know one of the biggest money movers and shakers in the Repug Party? Bu$hit!!

:D

it would be great to have a T-shirt of that pic with the caption:

Bush doesn't know 'Jack'!!

Got popcorn? :popcorn:

But I can't wait to hear who Jack knows . . . who will he rat out to save his behind?

He isn't loyal (as demonstrated by his emails) but how many tunes is he gonna have to sing? Will he get away with the minimum, or will he really have to tell all?

:popcorn:

seems to implicate him in more than just being an acquaintance!

There's three things to remember:
claim everything,
explain nothing,
deny everything.
- Senator "Granddad" Prescott Bush

Controversial lobbyist had close contact with Bush team

The reception Abramoff's team received from the Bush administration was in stark contrast to the chilly relations of the Clinton years. Abramoff, then at the Preston Gates firm, scored few meetings with Clinton aides and the lobbyist and the islands vehemently opposed White House attempts to extend U.S. labor laws to the territory's clothing factories.

The records from Abramoff's firm, obtained by The Associated Press from the Marianas under an open records request, chronicle Abramoff's careful cultivation of relations with Bush's political team as far back as 1997.

In that year, Abramoff charged the Marianas for getting then-Texas Gov. George W. Bush to write a letter expressing support for the Pacific territory's school choice proposal, his billing records show.

"I hope you will keep my office informed on the progress of this initiative," Bush wrote in a July 18, 1997, letter praising the islands' school plan and copying in an Abramoff deputy.

White House spokeswoman Erin Healy said Thursday that Bush didn't consider Abramoff a friend. "They may have met on occasion, but the president does not know him," she said.

As for the number of Abramoff lobbying team contacts with Bush officials documented in the billing records, Healy said: "We do not know how he defines 'contacts.'"

Andrew Blum, a spokesman for Abramoff, declined comment.
