"It must be remembered that there is nothing more difficult to plan, more doubtful of success, nor more dangerous to manage, than the creation of a new system. For the initiator has the enmity of all who would profit by the preservation of the old institutions and merely lukewarm defenders in those who would gain by the new ones." Machiavelli
New York and the Abramoff ScandalBy DIA, Section News
First we had John Sweeney's tax payer funded party weekend at Lake Placid. And now we have this:
In or about August 2003, defendent VOLZ paid for part of a two-night trip to the Sagamore Resort at Lake George, New York for Representative #1 and members of his staff. Defendent VOLZ assured Representative #1 that defendent VOLZ would be reimbursed for his payments by Abramoff.Yeah, we know how to show corrupt congressmen a good time in this state! In this particular Republican plea agreement, Representative #1 is Ohio Congressman Bob Ney. I've heard the Sagamore is quite nice in August. But are a couple of free nights worth a few years in prison? Perhaps. Maybe a new ad campaign for them.
