Former Washington lobbyist Jack Abramoff (L) arrives at the Miami Courthouse in Miami January 4, 2006. U.S. President George W. Bush's re-election campaign will give to charity $6,000 in contributions linked to Abramoff, the lobbyist at the center of a mounting corruption scandal, the Republican National Committee said on January 4, 2006. Abramoff pleaded guilty to fraud charges on January 3 and agreed to help U.S. prosecutors in a corruption probe that could involve several top Republican lawmakers, including former House of Representatives Majority Leader Tom DeLay of Texas.

He's covering his plugs!

that he always keeps his head covered due to the tradition of the Jewish movement he is a part of?

though he might have a yarmulke bobby-pinned to the top of his head, I don't know. Or maybe not...

As in "a nice Jewish boy wouldn't do anything like this."

Seriously, who picks this guy's outfits for him? Someone with a wild sense of humor, obviously.

A suit, tie, and ball cap. Jebus. :freak:

Good snipers know to miss the big parts where there is sure to be armor. He prolly knows lots about snipers.

What a prince. :eyes:

Where the hell are the cameras? :evilgrin: Where can I watch? :evilgrin:

That's one reason for an omnipresent hat.

I searched for some pix of him, sans hat, and the comb-over variations were numerous. He also has dropped weight and had been working out, a real make-over in the last year or so. The best picture I came across was this, from Mother Jones (good article, too):

Hope his cellmate finds him very cute!!!

he has to keep his head covered. Maybe he thinks it was too hot down here for the fedora? Even so, with all that $$$, couldn't he find a black baseball cap?

Prehaps the one shred of dignity the man has is to spare his fellow Jews some of the backlash that might occur if he were visiably Jewish...

Then again I'd expect that from RWers and not our side...

:rofl:

If there's one thing we get, it's that! :hi: Haven't seen you for a while, happy 2006!

And gettin' better every day, too.

:hi:

who wears hats anymore, and to court?

vermin

:shrug:
