$6000? You gotta be freaking kidding me |
|
ChimpCo donated the $6000 they got from Abramoff to charity? What a bunch of bullshit. $6000 is a drop in the freaking bucket. Does anyone believe that a "class act" like Abramoff would insult the chimp by offering only $6000?
Admitting the $6000 ties the chimp to Abramoff. Now, nobody can say that the chimp is hiding anything, after all, he admitted the connection. But the amount in question is so small that it shouldn't make waves.
Bullshit I say.

That $100,000 was money Abramoff raised from others as a pioneer, so not a direct contribution.
I hope the asshole keeps every fucking cent of it so he has to choke on it all when the scandal gets really stinky.

2. Abramoff is a Bush Pioneer |
|
He donated more than $100k and was part of Bush's transition team in 2000. BS is right.

This $6000 thing is so phoney that I'm angered that they would insult my intelligence by even suggesting it. Where's the fucking MSM?
They're all full of shit. The MSM should be all over this. Nary a word.

CBS Evening News did a pretty good job of covering it last night. They were very specific that asshole was keeping 100K.

7. Bush "owes" Abramoff's firm 300K from 2000 - Effectively a payoff |
