Abramoff Report: DoJ Staffers Get Tix "got our client $16 million" (BRIBE)
Here is the beginning of reports on the Abramoff e-mail release and the crimes contained within. First is this nugget showing that DoJ staffers who helped get $16 million for an Indian tribe of Abramoff's. The writers are members of Team Abramoff, aka the Abramoff Gang. Ring is one of Jack's crazed Republican assistants.



Notice that Kevin Ring talks about hookers--which were used by Wilkes in the GOP Poker/Money Laundering/Prostitute parties at the Watergate Hotel with Cunningham, Foggo and Goss.

This is outright quid pro quo, or bribery. The DoJ staffers did not pay full price for Suite tickets--they couldn't afford it! They likely paid ZERO. This just illustrates how Jack was running DC.

The e-mails clearly show that Abramoff had the run of the place until FEBRUARY 2003. Then the WH began rejecting him, knowing that he was under investigation and they had gone crazy on all the sports tickets and policy changes and appointments. So they started rejecting Abramoff nominations and those are the ones the WH and the GOP and FOX NEWS are so quick to point to.

BUT BEFORE EARLY 2003, JACK HAD THE RUN OF THE PLACE AND EVEN GOT A CLASSIFIED DoJ REPORT ON THE MARIANAS IN JUNE 2002. MAYBE FROM THESE STAFFERS FROM THE E-MAIL. THAT'S ANOTHER CRIME.


Please Recommend to encourage me to keep digging!

3. You might notice THE HOOKERS PART!
I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that is more damning is this world than the other shit. The hookers will stick with evangelicals, and might reduce their turnout in the elections.

4. Only if they find out.

Publicize, publicize, publicize.

Hit the fundy boards, if you've got the stomach for it.

You know--like, "I've been a wacked-out Republican Jesus freak all my life, but I'm kinda upset and disillusioned to find out that they're all a bunch of pedophiles who supply prostitutes to each other in exchange for political favors, and I'm gonna have trouble getting myself to the voting booth to vote for them even though I guess that"s still what Jeeeeeeeeeeeezus wants me to do 'cause Pat robertson aint't told me no different." (Well, maybe I don't exactly have the patter down right, but ya get the idea.)

5. Yup, what OriginalPCKelly said!
HOOKERS!!! LITTLE BOYS and FOLEY!!!

THOSE are the words that will keep those Fundies at home in November. The RW-Evengelist crowd have already been making noises at the WH about how the promises made to their followers (i.e. Constitutional amendment to prohibit gay marriage, etc.) have not been fulfilled. ADD to that discontent the latest news on bribery, hookers, the Foley scandal (homosexuality AND preying on children), along with TORTURE, which a lot of Christians, regardless of how malleable, will draw the line at ...

The PEFRECT STORM and, six weeks before a mid-term election, NO TIME to batten down the hatches.

Buh-bye, Republicans ...

7. But by god don't you miss a student loan payment
You dredge from the bottom of the cow trough. And be sure you've properly denigrated yourself before you ask for $150 of foodstamps or help with $100 doctor's office visit. Because you're sucking the god fearin' taxpayers dry - you lowly scum not fit to live in polite society.

That's what pisses me off the most about these assholes scamming millions of dollars out of the system while sneering at those just trying to survive. Hell I could be an "upstanding citizen" if I was willing to provide hookers for multi-million dollar contracts too.
