Waxman to rexamine the Abramoff lobbying scandal in coming weeks
The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee is poised to reexamine “the Jack Abramoff lobbying scandal in coming weeks.” Chairman Henry Waxman (D-CA) “issued letters to a range of Abramoff associates seeking information about his contacts with the White House.”

2. Undoing the McCain cover-up is overdue. The Rs did not foresee oversight
when McCain did the White House white wash investigation in the Senate.

3. Ranking Member Tom Davis must have really pissed him off
wanting to reopen the Clinton scandal. Davis' hands were all over the Abramoff scandal. We're now in for a real fight: :popcorn:

5. Thanks for making that connections.
My views of Waxman lately are souring...so any positive view is welcome in helping restore my faith.

6. How many investigations does Waxman's Comm. now have ongoing? Near 50, not?
Investigating Republican corruption is analagous to gardening in New Orleans during Katrina. The corruption is too deep and totally overwhelming.

7. Hopefully the White House connection will lead to something...

impeachment proceedings cannot come soon enough.
