Harry Reid Connected to Jack Abramoff
Ried connected to Jack Abramoff
I guess Jack wasn’t kidding when he said that this was going to go deeper before he was done. Is Dorganoff next? I would be willing to bet the Liberal media will not go after Reid. They will stay clear of this one.
According to press reports today and yesterday, convicted lobbyist Jack Abramoff has named incoming Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid as someone he influenced while lobbying on behalf of Indian gambling interests. Abramoff claims that approximately $30,000 in donations to Reid resulted in his support for these gambling interests.
This is an important development in the Abramoff probe and should be investigated in an exhaustive manner. The American public deserves to hear the full story so that both sides may be called to account. The Democrats were emphatic that Abramoff and his cronies needed to be exposed – I hope they will have the courage to continue that call now that one of their own is implicated.
Ethics will and should be an important issue for the incoming Congress and it is important that party leaders are able to facilitate the debate in an honest and forthright manner. I look forward to the upcoming debate on ethics reform and hope that the Congress takes bold action to preserve the legitimacy of our government institutions.
