George is gonna have some trouble holding to his claim that he "doesn't know Abramoff..."

scotty mcclellan...

“The President does not know him, nor does the President recall ever meeting him.”

BIG trouble...

In President Bush's first 10 months, GOP fundraiser Jack Abramoff and his lobbying team logged nearly 200 contacts with the new administration as they pressed for friendly hires at federal agencies and sought to keep the Northern Mariana Islands exempt from the minimum wage and other laws, records show.

i bet the wh gang is sooooo goddam relieved that the focus is on alito today... they wanted the alito hearings to start before the end of the year but i don't imagine they had any idea what kind of deep shit they would be in right off the bat in the new year...
