I love how he's blaming it on alcoholism.

. a lot of this hinged on a "golfing trip to scotland" ney and associates were given by abramoff. does one really need to go all the way to scotland and...play golf?

anyway, he's only getting about two years in prison. still, that's a lot of prison for a guy like this.

People do. It's the birthplace of golf and all. (That said, did THESE clowns need to go, answer being 'no.') Two years ain't much but after all his posing as the innocent any amount is kinda satisfying.

i wonder if they serve "freedom fries" in the big house?!?

i'm most interested in how he's cooperating

and how long he sticks around, to his colleagues' dismay, before resigning

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Saturday, 16 September 2006 21:40 (twenty years ago)

Maybe not by much.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Saturday, 16 September 2006 21:40 (twenty years ago)

yeah, i saw that, and i've heard people say otherwise

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Saturday, 16 September 2006 21:43 (twenty years ago)

CNN says he is, and this Time story is interesting.

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Saturday, 16 September 2006 21:49 (twenty years ago)

and AP raises an interesting point about Abramoff's role in the case
