200 Abramoff Visits to the White House in Less than 10 Months?

It was reported today that super-GOP lobbyist Jack Abramoff, just in the first 10 months of the Bush presidency in 2001, signed into the White House more than 200 times! That amounts to about one visit each and every business day.

Remember, too, that in 2001, one would expect that the White House would have had more to worry about than Indian gaming casinos and the other stupid ass stuff Abramoff peddled. Yet - instead of stopping the terrorists on 9/11 or coming up with an energy plan NOT authored by Halliburton, Exxon, Texaco-Chevron, and Enron - people at the White House were busy making Mr. Abramoff's every request come true.

Then remember this was ONLY the first 10 months of the Bush presidency. We can only guess right now what happened during the other five years before the Abramoff story broke and the GOP, so greedy, was no longer trying to hide any of the excess.

I'm raging mad.
