Feels Like Abromass
It's hard to know what to add to the Washington Post story on Abramoff's guilty plea (which appears to have ceased evolving). Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy seems about right.
Still, I feel like I should say something. If for no other reason than to make up for the sounds of silence you hear from the Malkins and Powerlines of the world.
When I read other left-of-center bloggers I hear a subtext: Get Delay. Get Norquist. At the very least Get Ralph Reed.
And there's nothing wrong with these sentiments. These three little piggies should not go to market, but to a House of Fed. And no matter how much the big bad warbloggers huff and puff, they should be punished to the full extent of the law.
Even more important than this, however, the flashlight of justice needs to be shined straight into the face of the K Street Project.
(ambulance sounds. Then the steps of a state trooper as he strides towards the driver's window.) "Do you know why I pulled you over? Your votes have been weaving across the line dangerously. Son, I want you to step out of the Congress. You've been Legislating Under the Influence of Cash."
