**Please, Andy--regardless whether Abramoff was deceitful or just crooked, it's ridiculous to say that he was "not at all" a conservative. As I said above, he was a director of the National Center for Public Policy Research (a conservative think tank); he was College Republican National Committee National Chairman; he has longstanding ties to Grover Norquist and Ralph Reed, among others; he was a member of Citizens for America, a pro-Reagan group that helped Oliver North build support for the Nicaraguan contras; when Preston Gates Ellis & Rouvelas Meeds LLP,a lobbying firm, needed a "conservative, Christian Coalition Republican with strong ties to...Republican leadership", they hired Abramoff; he was a member of GWB's transition team in 2001. And so forth. If he wasn't a conservative, he certainly did a great job of pretending to be one.--[[User:WJThomas|WJThomas]] 19:39, 13 May 2007 (EDT)
