More Republican Troubles Ahead

The Livingston Texas based Coushatta tribe are taking both Jack Abramoff (R-Confessed) and Georgia Lt. Gov. hopeful Ralph Reed (R-Ga) to court.

A Texas Indian tribe filed a federal lawsuit Wednesday alleging ex-lobbyist Jack Abramoff, former Christian Coalition leader Ralph Reed and their associates engaged in fraud and racketeering to shut down the tribe's casino.


A collection of other republicans (both elected, staff, and supporters) are also named in this case.

Amazing!

Im sure glad Democrats keep their noses clean. Those Law abiding men and women should control the Capital Hill. Their closets are all empty and everyone has come out of them.

No, a few Dems are as dirty as anyone (Jefferson from La. as example), but the corruption in the dems is far more rare than the pervasive corruption that is now the norm within the Republican structure the DeLay (R-Tx., indicted and served in this civil case) built.

And those who support or defend these crooks, and their efforts, are no better than those commiting these illegal and immoral acts.

After Abscam and Lost Trust, they should be left relatively clean, well except for a few...
