Keep crying. The liberal media will never listen to the elitist minorty aka conservatives. Why should they. The elitist conservatives have exploited the poor and middle class for years. Now you think the media owes you a favor. Keep Crying! Whaaaaa! HAHAHAAHA!

county club prision, or club fed as it's called, what a load of horse pucky. start sending these scumbags to "real" prison. they are in fact "real" criminals.
maybe if they had to spend some time with BUBBA, they would think twice before becoming criminals.

PRISON TIME IS PRISON TIME. WHETHER IT BE COUNTY, STATE OR FEDERAL YOU ARE INSTRUCTED ON WHEN,HOW,WHERE & WHY. YES YOU MAY SAY NO GATES, NO BARS THAT IS CORRECT BUT YOU HAVE NO FREEDOM.

Do you really think we are supposed to believe that this new information about the Abramoff scandel involving Democrats was not known before the elections.

ahhhh... a slice of justice for the republican elitist... even though it's club fed, it's still prison... maybe bush, cheney and rumsfeld will share those other beds in his bunker, oh, and rove will round it up to six...

If Abramhoff had been a Democrat, Nancy Pelosi would have tried to make him the Majority Leader, or chairman of the Intelligence(?)Committee! Do you think Harry Reid's dealings with Abramhoff will be examined by the "mainstream" media, or DNC lite?

How long will it take for a huge aspect of the Abramoff Scandal to be critically examined?

Publicly available documents (available on request) provide information regarding Microsoft Corporation lobbyist Jack Abramoff - and colleagues - lobbying then Majority Whip Rep. Tom DeLay's office in 1998 for expansion of the controversial H-1B visa program. Microsoft tapped the same lobbying network in 2000 to expand the H-1B program again - despite House testimony critical of the program from myself and several others on August 5, 1999.

According to the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics tabulations, Microsoft has spent about $100 million in lobbying and campaign finance contributions since 1998. In exchange for things of value, Microsoft received official acts worth billions annually. The late Milton Friedman called the H-1B visa program a "government subsidy" in a 2002 article.

Jack Abramoff's employer at the time was Preston Gates, a firm that included Bill Gates, III father as one of its principals.

When will federal authorities investigate this unprecedented corruption that has cost millions of experienced American citizens their careers, as they are replaced by "fresh (inexpensive) young blood" from India and Communist China, among other third world nations?

Microsoft is working the same lobbying network right now to provide the biggest H-1B visa program expansion in history via S.2611 (The SKIL Bill.) The firm hopes to have the legislation pass during the "lame duck" session in December, 2006.

So how long has the media known that Abramoff had fingered 6 Democratic Senators for corruption? I bet as long as they knew about the sleazebag Republicans this creep had bought.There was plenty of proper outrage in the press at the Republicans, but why not at the Democrats? Why haven't democrats been hounded by the press and forced to resign? Democrats claim to be more ethical? They were voted into office by campaigning on higher ethics. Why isn't the press challenging them on this?
For that matter why has no one mentioned that Nancy Pelosi uses illegal immigrants on her vineyard? Why are democrats beyond serious scruntiny?

Depending on what state they're prosecuted in, thousands of people do actual, maximum penalty, hard time for a decade or two for selling pot in this country while people who go out of their way to sell out their country involving the exchange of millions of dollars get to spend a little time exercising and having "limited phone privileges" in an "un-gated community" with minimal supervision.
Who is the real threat to the American way?
"Let the punishment fit the crime"!

It's about time a Democrat got caught doing something illegal. Then there will only be 25 times more corrupt Repubs, rather than the 50 times now.
