Abraham Jackoff to be sentenced 3/29 - no delay - to "name names"
Edited on Mon Mar-06-06 02:23 PM by Jersey Devil
Jack Abramoff's request to delay his sentencing was rejected; he will be sentenced on March 29th. His lawyer argued that the sentencing process would prompt the disclosure of just how pervasive Abramoff's crimes were in the Republican party:

"We will name names. We will provide the public with evidence of what is going on out there," Lowell said.

March 29th. Mark your calendars, and stock up on your popcorn.

PS - Al Franken, in "The Truth - With Jokes" says "Abraham Jackoff" was Abramoff's nickname in high school.

20. He probably has depositions, signed confessions, evidence on the record
He will live to talk, that is the only way those he fingers might discredit him.

8. The end of March should be interesting...
The end of the M3.

Iran's Bourse goes live.

Abramoff spills the beans.

What's next?

Rove indicted?

Cheney indicted?

Bush indicted?

Oh, the possibilities are marvelous!

11. Uh oh - that's spring break time
If you are a pretty blond coed, do not go anywhere on spring break! - lock yourself in a safe hiding place somewhere because Rove's goons will be looking to "disappear" one or two.

15. Calendar has been marked
Edited on Mon Mar-06-06 02:55 PM by Mabus
and I'm in the process of rescheduling an appointment. I'm taking the day off. :popcorn:

on edit: probably better reschedule what I can for most of the rest of that week. Got remember to stock up on snacks (pretzels - of course) to have on-hand for this.

17. Heh! Heh! Heeeeeeeh!!!!
Remember the Repug spin, "But the Democrats did it too!!!"?

I guess in a few weeks we'll find out. But don't be surprised when the Repug heads start exploding...And stay out of the Brain Spray Zone. :P

21. I'm not to sure he is going to name names...
If he isn't going to get a deal, why should he...

It looks as if the defense wanted to have some more time to work out a deal...

Well, maybe there will be no deal....
