Is the Tribe-Abramoff-Delay/Rove Axis just a machine designed
to launder money from Native American tribes and various foreign interests into the campaign coffers and personal bank accounts of Republicans?

I mean, is that the big picture of what this is all about?

Were some of these tribes in fact, "willing dupes" who WANTED to slide money to shrubco and their Repub friends via Abramoff and the fake think tanks and whatever?

It's a LITTLE hard for me to imagine that all these different tribes were so unsophisticated as to continually, repeatedly give these guys (Abramoff, Scanlon, Reed)MILLIONS of dollars for NO service, or inadequate service rendered... I guess it's possible, but...

2. I believe we are seeing just the tip
of this titanic-killer berg of republican fraud....
there are countless money laundering operations
grinding away to serve the corrupt conservative machine..
and perhaps... the tribes were just middlemen in
this whole crooked enterprise. Like most fraud,
this one is rapidly unravelling and likely we'll see a lot
of the chimp's cronies behind bars. Now if someone
will just rat out that dirty monkey....
