I'm Surprised Abramoff Made It This Far
without being the target of either a whole lotta members of congress, a couple Indian tribes, drug lords, the Bushcos, or...I mean, the list goes on and on. He must have stayed away from windows in tall buildings and ducked a lot.

I believe this story is going to have enough muscle to stay alive, what with all the crime, mystique, sex and the Who's Who of society. I haven't read all the reports, but it surely has sex in it, somewhere.

Anyway, it's gonna be another OJ trial or blonde kidnapping, so expect a year of sensational coverage.

Stock up on popcorn!

4. Take a look at Meyers Lansky and the control he had in
with Fulgencio Batista, the Cuban dictator and the many friends he had in the GOP, until Castro kicked his ass out of Cuba.

II: Lansky's Migratory Birds of Prey

It seems like all the LCN (La Cosa Nostra) drug interests are interconnected, I suggest. I'm thinking that you just chopped off one arm of an enormous octopus. (Assistant U.S. Attorney Bill Norris) nods. That's usually what we do, he says in a somewhat resigned tone. And it turns out to be more like one arm of a starfish, so it regenerates.

Interesting read that goes right to George Bush
