Contributions to Dems came directly from Indian tribes NOT from Abramoff
The media are throwing these contributions to Dems in with the contributions from Abramoff for services performed (Rep. Ney). I said before and I''ll say it again REpublican Congressmen and Senators should all be required to register as lobbyists. The only difference is the Congressmen have offices in the Capital building, the lobbyists just hang out there (they have much nnicer digs over on K street).

good post

Here is the link mentioned in the above post showing contributions to Dems all came directly from Indian tribes:

2. THANK YOU!
There are some on this board that believe what the GOP and the MSM are feeding them.

Rather than checking into the contributions themselves (which is so simple with the FEC web site and Opensecrets.org) and seeing that the Democrats listed received NO contributions from Abramoff, or looking to see if the Democrats had received contributions from the same individuals or PACs before Ambramoff's time; they'd rather be lazy or foolish and believe the lies.

We must Defend our Democratic Senators and Representatives unless or until such time that they have been proven to have done something illegal or unethical.

This is a republican scandal!
