It's The Corruption, Stupid
You'll remember that back on 9/15 we were reminiscing about all those loose ends on the Bush-Abramoff connections that never quite seemed to get tied up. Well, looks like our friends over at TPM Muckraker have been pulling on the threads:

"Hundreds of contacts between top White House officials and former lobbyist Jack Abramoff and his associates 'raise serious questions about the legality and actions' of those officials ... 485 contacts between White House officials and Abramoff and his lobbying team at the firm Greenberg Traurig from January 2001 to March 2004, with 82 of those contacts occuring in Rove's office, including 10 with Rove personally ..."

485 contacts in 39 months. That's basically a White House contact with felon Abramoff every other day, assuming they took the weekends off ... though corruption seems to be the one thing this administration never breaks from.
