1. Nekkid photos?

Any stain?

2. God, I wish. Impeachment.

4. I could care less. What we need is evidence showing

Bush traded executive acts for fundraising and profit.

[Dawgs]

7. No. Not at this point...

Maybe early on, but now Bush is claiming that he doesn't know Abramoff. If Abramoff has photos in his office and home it shows Bush to be a liar... again.

9. Not necessarily. Have you seen the photo's from Abramhof's home or office

I haven't. If they are more of the let's stand in a line and have our photo shot variety they aren't going to prove as much as Abramhof's own assertion that he and Bush knew each other.

8. establishing a relationship existed between them

counter to the lies B*sh has told about "hardly knowing him" as well as destroying B*sh's credibility on the matter is a first step, which these pics would establish. Why do you think the WH won't release them? (rhetorical)

Not a smoking gun, but a piece of the big picture.

10. Abramhof just having pictures means next to nothing

Unless it's a signed picture that says "too my best, closest friend" or unless the picture shows some detail that can only imply a relationship that is more than superficial.

This approach is really not going to yield value. Bush isn't going to get impeached over his characterization of knowledge of Abramhof.

We need proof that Bush engaged in influence peddling.

6. So what?

As long as they are safe on the bookshelf...it means nothing. I want to see them.
