a repug lying about corruption! what a surprise!

Abramoff connected to Maryland GOP Governor

Oh no, who could believe that the tainted Abramoff even touched Maryland Governor, Ehrlich, the first GOP governor of the state since Spiro Agnew? With a tough re-election coming up it's going to be fun watching Ehrlich tell the Democrat leaning voters of Maryland how he had no links to Abramoff. His first reaction to hearing the report that his deputy chief of staff was running an Abramoff slush fund was pretty brave and I encourage him to stay the course. I'm sure Maryland voters will be fine with the links to the 2006 poster child for slime and corruption.

Ehrlich said yesterday that the Abramoff plea would have no effect on Miller or his place in the administration.

"There's nothing there," Ehrlich said in a brief interview early yesterday, before the charging document was widely available. The governor's office declined to revise his statement later in the day.

I can't wait to see how far-reaching this is actually going to become!
Don't forget, we're still waiting on Fitzgerald and the Traitor-gate case, as well!
We could conceivable clear out a good proportion of repugs if justice is served.
Americablog also lists the recipients of Abramoff's "contributions" and NONE of them are Democrats!
