Edited on Wed Jan-04-06 04:49 AM by rucky
What percentage of DEMS to REPUBS will Abramoff implicate?

I predict 40/60.

4. 5 to 210 but CNN said that Abramoff's emails implicate 1/3 Dems
Don't know if I believe CNN more than FOX though.

8. Not really. Abermoff is the premiere Republican lobbyist
on the planet. His guy is Tom DeLay. Delay locked the Dems out of K Street.

No Dems.

9. 95/5 and then he gets pardoned. Scanlon's ex the next Secretary of State!
This is really starting to look like the biggest hoax they've pulled off in years.

Is the the real nuclear option?

Did Emily J. Miller turn on Scanlon or did she carry out her part in a coup d'état?




About the prosecutor in this case:

"She said the department is committed to making sure that people know "government is not for sale.""

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/01/03/AR2006010300474_pf.html

But the government is for sale, so how will she do this?

Should we expect her to prove that the Democrats are the ones who are sellouts?




Here is a snippet on this "cherry picked" prosecutor:
