it is truly awe-inspiring to listen on c-span to the senate indian affairs committee as it meticulously details the byzantine money trails to, from, and around jack abramoff and michael scanlon, who funneled indian tribe payments thru a variety of companies and associations to support the bush agenda and ralph reed's christian coalition while enriching themselves and concealing the politically explosive fact that the ultimate source of the funds was casino revenues.
the elephant in the room so politely but pointedly ignored by john mccain (r-az), byron dorgan (d-nd), &c, is the connection of abramoff and scanlon to house hammer tom delay (r-tx), already under texas indictment on unrelated(?) charges of political money laundering and conspiracy.
