[stop the bleeding]

1. I have heard it is 5 photos n/t

[SharonRB]

2. Sure looks like them, doesn't it?

[havocmom]

3. Look like standard 'photo with the pResident stuff', but good catch.

Since Abramoff was invited to the pig farm in Crawford, there might be some more candid ones floating around. Hope those surface too.

Edite to add: lots of people getting screen shots needed... this will likely get scrubbed everywhere but DU

[wakeme2008]

4. looks like some

but not the most damning. Those would be at places he does not normally had his picture taken with thousands of other.

[fooj]

7. I recollect reading that the photogrpher was instructed to destroy

some of the pic. I read it a few weeks back, I think.

Peace.

5. What's the shared document?

[jackster]

6. look at the hairlines - that's not Jack

close, but no

[gimama]

8. yep

for sure, on the exterior pics,
not certain on the interior pics,
but I'd say..YEP!
now, where's the audio?
(note the boom/mike)

9. One thing is for sure, Reflections website has been scrubbed

The event "oval office" is no longer listed but the archive from then clearly lists the event.

10. Nope, not even close.

[eek]

11. check Talking Points Memo

Josh had the missing serial numbers for the scrubbed pictures about 10 days ago.

[savemefromdumbya]

12. got a close up?

[Dunvegan]

13. Reflections Photography is the official White House photographers.

Can't say. First shot doesn't seem like his facial shadows.

I think we'd need slightly better resolution shots to make a reasonable guess.

But the fact the site has been scrubbed of that particular link, of all links, is a definite clue of ommission.

14. Thats Mel Martinez. nt

[stevedeshazer]

18. Looks like Darren from "Bewitched"

[Dunvegan]

15. Why don't you send them to Josh at Talking Points...just for giggles.

Couldn't hurt. He's got the serial numbers for the specific photos and can verify better than our guessing.

Contact Josh here: [e-mail]

16. From Think Progress

In an interview yesterday, Washingtonian editor Kim Eisler confirmed to ThinkProgress that he has viewed several photographs of President Bush with Jack Abramoff. Eisler, who authored a book on tribal politics and is an associate of Abramoff’s, says he saw the photos during a visit to Abramoff’s house where they were “just sitting in his office.”

The White House has continually refused to release photos of President Bush with Jack Abramoff. Moreover, Press Secretary Scott McClellan has said that if photos of the two together exist, they are shots taken at “widely attended” Hanukkah receptions in 2001 and 2002. But according to Eisler, none of the photos in Abramoff’s office were taken at Hanukkah receptions.

One photo at Abramoff’s home depicts Bush shaking hands with Abramoff in the Old Executive Office Building, which is adjacent to the West Wing of the White House. Another photograph shows Bush with Abramoff at what appears to be the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington. A third photo, which previously has not been disclosed, is of Abramoff’s wife with Laura Bush.

17. There are others

One damning photo described includes Bush, Abramoff, and one of the tribal chiefs they victimized.

[Canuckistanian]

19. Why doesn't someone ask the tribal chiefs?

I mean, what have THEY got to guard? Abramoff and his political party (including Shrub) stole their money.

22. According to Wonkette, the guy with Bush in those pics is

Representative Rick Renzi (R) of Arizona. Good try, though.
