ANALYSIS AND GIFS OF WORST ABRAMOFF/WHITE HOUSE BRIBERY E-MAILS!
Edited on Sat Oct-07-06 09:16 PM by Dems Will Win

ABRAMOFF/ROVE SECRETARY WITH THE PRESIDENT OF THE CORRUPTED STATES OF AMERICA

Whew! Just finished putting all the juiciest and illegal e-mails into GIF so people could lift them and research all the corruption of The Abramoff Gang more easily and use the document involved. I also put the emails into chronological order as the orginal PDF is very long and confusing, skipping around in time.

There are many other e-mails asking for illegal tickets not included here.

All of it comes from the Waxman/Davis Report:
http://www.democrats.reform.house.gov/abramoff/index.asp

ABRAMOFF WELCOMES ROVE TO DC:



ABRAMOFF GETS ON THE TRANSITION TEAM:



ABRAMOFF'S FORCED ABORTION, SEX SLAVERY AND FORCED LABOR MARIANAS AGENDA FOR DELAY AND ROVE TO PASS FOR HIS BRIBES:





THIS IS A FAVOR TO JACK FOR THE MARIANAS CLIENT



ABRAMOFF'S VERY ILLEGAL USE OF THE INDIANS' SUITE BOX FOR EVERYTHING AND EVERYBODY, INCLUDING U-2 TICKETS FOR ONE AND ALL:



ABRAMOFF WANTED STAYMAN "WHACKED" (USING GANGSTER LINGO) BECAUSE HE AGITATED FOR THE WORKERS ON THE MARIANAS:



ABRAMOFF WANTS BABUATA ON THE MARIANAS TO NOT BE ENDORSED BY BUSH AND FITIAL GET THE NOD INSTEAD AS FITIAL IS A TAN FAMILY LACKEY:





ABRAMOFF GETS A $16 MILLION EARMARK FOR THE CHOCTAWS AND "ROCK STAR MEHLMAN TAKES CARE OF GETTING THE FUNDS RELEASED ASAP AND THEN JACK PAYS OFF THE POLTIICANS INVOLVED:









ABRAMOFF TRIES TO GET AN APPOINTMENT IN THE MARIANAS:





WHACKING MCCAIN'S WIFE, APPOINTMENTS AND MORE:












ABRAMOFF ASKS ROVE TO PAY $50 FOR SUITE BOX TICKETS:



ABRAMOFF SAYS ROVE TOLD HIM "ANYTHING YOU WANT JUST ASK SUSAN":

KARL ROVE EATS AT ABRAMOFF'S RESTAURANT "A LOT" FOR FREE:



MORE PAY FOR PLAY:



ABRAMOFF EXPLAINS HOW EXTRA COVER ON THE INDIAN GAMING WILL HIDE THE BRIBERY GOING ON:



ABRAMOFF FURTHER BRIBES RALSTON WITH AN OFFER TO FORM A LARGE BUSINESS WITH HER AND GET IT FUNDED:



ABRAMOFF IS CONCERNED ABOUT THE JENA PROJECT FOR HIS INDIAN GAMING CLIENTS:



AN E-MAIL GETS INTO THE WHITE HOUSE SYSTEM, OR ASHCROFT TELLS BUSH OF THE FBI INVESTIGATION OF ABRAMOFF AND SUDDENLY JACK GETS SQUAT FROM RALSTON AND ROVE:













Please recommend so the public can begin to grasp the criminality of the Republicans.

LET'S GET THIS PARTY STARTED!

1. Thanks for doing all this work.
They were so pissed that someone in the WH was saying that the tribes should have direct contact, without lobbyists.

One among a very, very long list of outrages against democracy.

4. "This is horrible. Why would they fuck us like this?" Abramoff's last
email after he found out about the investigation.

I can't even think of words for this one.

7. Interesting thing about Ralston's emails
Edited on Sat Oct-07-06 09:45 PM by DoYouEverWonder
She usually uses an email account at georgewbush.com or one at the RNC website. If she was employed by the WH she should have been using the WH email system, she shouldn't have been using the GOP's email system.

9. She used that because the WH system is public and watched
That's why Jack said "dammit" when he found out the Jena e-mail got into the WH e-mail server--AND IT WAS FORWARDED TO A SUPERVISOR WHO GOT CONCERNED RIGHT AWAY.

That was the beginning of the sudden end for Casino Jack.

27. How they got caught: After lobbyist broke off engagement, ex-fiancee told
of illicit dealings to FBI

Michael Scanlon found himself at the center of one of the biggest political scandals in Washington history as a result of cheating and lying—but not the type involving the numerous clients he was paid to lobby Congress for, former coworkers and friends of his ex-fiancee say.

Scanlon was implicated in the Abramoff scandal by his former thirtysomething fiancee, Emily J. Miller, whom he met in the late 1990s while working as communications director for former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-TX), three former associates who worked with Scanlon at DeLay’s office said. Colleagues say Miller went to the FBI after Scanlon broke off their engagement and announced his intention to marry another woman.

Miller was DeLay’s young press secretary and as communications director, Scanlon was her boss. The two began a secretive office romance and Scanlon eventually proposed marriage, associates say.

In 2003, Miller left DeLay’s office to work at the State Department. Scanlon departed too, partnering with now-indicted conservative lobbyist Jack Abramoff in lobbying for an array of Indian tribes. As Scanlon’s star rose, troubles between the couple mushroomed.

In May 2004, Miller found herself at the center of attention when—while live on air—she ordered a cameraman for NBC’s Meet the Press to stop filming Colin Powell. A copy of the transcript shows Miller, who also used to work as an NBC staffer, as a brusque press aide. Powell eventually ordered that the interview continue and asked Miller to step aside.

19. Folks...just imagine how many more emails there are that show just how
corrupt this administration and the GOP are....

This is just the tip of the iceberg....

The last email is particularly telling: "WH (Whitehouse) folks are getting really arrogant lately. Not sure who is driving that train but they need to remember who there (sic) friends are......or they risk the fate of Bush 1."

Wow! So who is driving that train in Washington???

I don't understand them. The email addresses, well, maybe I can see that, but what offices were contacted, etc. There's no national security issue here. WTF?

32. Bush Bank Bribes and the Andy Card Connection
"Any memo like this should be marked CONFIDENTIAL so as to avoid discovery. Destroy any record of this memo." -- State Street executive Nicholas A. Lopardo, in handwritten instructions to a former compliance officer at the Corporation. Mr. Lopardo was formerly (1) a Director of State Street Corporation; (2) Vice Chairman of State Street Corporation; (3) Chairman of State Street Global Advisors ("SSgA"), the asset management division of State Street Corporation; and (4) a Director of the Boston Stock Exchange.

"I suggest we do something which is illegal ... My view is that we wouldn't be slapped too hard even if someone figured out that what we are doing is illegal." -- State Street executive Doug Holmes, in an e-mail to colleagues at State Street. Mr. Holmes was formerly the head of the Enhanced Equity Management group at State Street Global Advisors, and recently took the Voluntary Separation Program offer at State Street.
*********************************************

Why did Andy Card resign so abruptly earlier this year?

The White House started getting calls about his ties to Ron Kaufman (architect of the Willie Horton ads) and Ron Logue, Chairman and CEO of State Street.

34. Abram Jackemoff actually talks about someone getting "WHACKED"
Later he was implicated in a gangland style slaying in Florida over a casino deal...

Jeebus Christ, he was literally a mobster wannabe with access to the WH!

I also love the line, "It's not a subject issue, it's a face issue. He needs to look like he had important meetings."

They were literally buying and selling the appearance of influence, along with influence itself. What a bunch of craven, lying, racist, elitist, sanctimonious ASSHOLES, from Duhbya, the Godfather, right on down to the street thugs like Abramoff.
