There is a difference between getting money from tribes, and getting
money from Abramoff.

You should switch from kool-aid to beer.

It took me all of 120 seconds to find this in the liberal Chicago Tribune:

http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/southsouthwest/chi-0601110210jan11,1,5780990.story?coll=chi-newslocalssouthwest-hed

"Kennedy on Tuesday also explained why Weller used $1,640 of his own money
to reimburse a lobbying firm where Abramoff once worked for a 1999 trip
to two Indian reservations in Louisiana and Mississippi.

"He visited those reservations at the request of former U.S. Rep. David
Funderburk (R-N.C.), and THOUGHT THE TRIBES HAD PAID FOR THE TRIP [emphasis
by clifto], Kennedy said. As soon as he confirmed otherwise, he repaid
the money from his own pocket, he said."


Here's one from liberal rag UnionLeader.com:

http://www.theunionleader.com/article.aspx?headline=Sullivan+defends+Democrats+k eeping+lobbyist%E2%80%99s+money&articleId=c0963d8c-692b-47e6-b316-f42c8053aeef

"Top Democrats received donations from scandal-plagued Washington
lobbyist Jack Abramoff?s Indian tribe clients for legitimate reasons
and are right to refuse to give up the money, the state?s Democratic
chairman says."


I bet if I took the time to search further, which I'm not going to bother
doing, I could find *tribal* money going to Democrats via Abramoff in mass
quantities.

Note that unlike most of the Republicans involved, Kennedy and Reid have
no intention of giving the money back or giving it to charity. They're
keeping it.

But the Indians didn't work for Abramoff.

"Once worked??" Many people have visited Germany, where Hilter once
waged world war. Thus anyone who has been to Germany is a Nazi.

You can go to opensecrets.org and trace money given directly by Jack
Abramoff. Hopefull this link will do the trick:

Yeah, exactly. I see you liberals don't like Kennedy's excuse any better than
we conservatives do.

I already posted two liberal rags that named a lot of Democrats involved in
the scandal. You can name all the lying liberal rags that don't mention them
as many times as you want, and it won't change that 40 out of 45 Senate
Democrats received tainted money from Abramoff.

You need to show a direct connection. Getting money from Indian Tribes
is not illegal.

I gather you left your thumb up your ass rather than look at the Open
Secrets link. Figures.
