Culture of Corruption

For a good overview into the entire seamy underworld ruled by Jack Abramoff, I recommend today's Washington Post article about his past activities. It's really stunning to read what he did. The e-mails he sent are even more stunning -- you can read some of them here.

And just in time for 2006, here's a paragraph that should give Republicans pause:

Alan K. Simpson (R), the former Wyoming senator who was in Washington during the last big congressional scandal -- the Abscam FBI sting in the late 1970s and
early 1980s, in which six House members and one senator were convicted -- said
the Abramoff case looks bigger. Simpson said he recently rode in a plane with
one of Abramoff's attorneys, who told him: "There are going to be guys in your
former line of work who are going to be taken down."


This is why the Democrats are gonna keep repeating their "culture of corruption" theme until November 2006.
