GOP: Bush should disclose Abramoff contacts >
Updated: 1:26 p.m. ET Jan. 29, 2006

WASHINGTON - Republican lawmakers said Sunday that President Bush should publicly disclose White House contacts with Jack Abramoff, the lobbyist who has pleaded guilty to felony charges in an influence-peddling case.

Releasing the records would help eliminate suspicions that Abramoff, a top fundraiser for Bush’s re-election campaign, had undue influence on the White House, the Republicans said.

In a Washington Post-ABC News poll released Friday, 76 percent of those surveyed said the Bush administration should provide a list of all meetings any White House officials have had with Abramoff. Two in three Republicans joined with eight in 10 Democrats and political independents in favoring disclosure, according to the poll.

3. Republicans make me wish I believed in Hell.
This is bullshit. They're grandstanding while they circle the wagons.
