If you guessed Jack Abramoff, you were right!!!

-----> http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com/grandolddocket.php

Jack Abramoff - Pled Guilty - Sentenced to Minimum of 5 Years, 10 Months

"Jack Abramoff was initially ordered to report to prison in June, but the judge granted a delay to allow Abramoff and business partner Adam Kidan more time to cooperate with investigators. He is now scheduled to report to prison on October 2nd, 2006".

4. Maybe so? TPM needs to update it to November.
They've already reported on his first delay... and the media says he was denied another stay -- but must report a month later:

You're right!!

What a week it's been..

> Foley resigns in disgrace
> Speaker Hastert knew of Foley's disgusting behavior (lots more will come out on this story!!!)
> Woodward's book "State of Denial" hits store shelves at #01
> Macaca keeps digging himself bigger and bigger hole (per news articles)
> R-Conrad Burns, already losing to Jon Tester (Montana) and already in trouble for insulting firefighters, publically insults Italian Americans on Thursday

DAYUM... .. and I'm sure I missed half of it!!!

5. Nope, he doesn't go till MID NOVEMBER, and his pal OCT 23
Both prosecution and defense atty's wanted even more time, but that is all they got out of the judge.

Jacko is clearly SINGING....

6. Yep.. I just located the article. At least the judge denied another stay
Although they SERIOUSLY should have made him go in on October 2nd!!

He gets another 6 weeks of freedom..

8. I hope so! I found a site with all sorts of Abramoff > Foley connections
The DCCC has an extensive history of not only his dealings with Abramoff.. but on the creep Foley himself!

9. Buh-bye Jacko!
I think it's going to be you paying the bribe money in this new environment. ;-)
