Reply #146: So, the President of the United States is doing bidness for Abramoff?

[donkeyotay]

Subpoena issued November 18, 2002 that would have revealed Abramoff.
And the very next day November 19, 2002, Bush squelches the grand jury by demoting the US Attorney.

The Los Angeles Times reports that in 2002, lobbyist Jack Abramoff entered into a secret agreement with Guam Superior Court officials to lobby against a court revision bill then pending in the United States Congress. For his lobbying efforts, Mr. Abramoff was reportedly paid with thirty-six $9,000 checks funneled through a Laguna Beach lawyer to disguise the lobbyist's role in working for the Guam Superior Court. These transactions were the target of a federal grand jury subpoena issued on November 18, 2002, which required the Guam Superior Court Administrative Director to release records involving the lobbying contract. It was on November 19, 2002, that President Bush announced he was demoting U.S. Attorney Black. The federal grand jury took no further action in the Abramoff investigation.

Looks, walks and talks like a duck... probably a flamingo.
