Lobbyist Jack)( Abramoff has cut a deal with federal prosecuters. He is still set to receive about 10 years in prison, and over $25 million dollars in fines and compensation requirements. Plus testimony against "Representative 1", and possibly others.
Questions for Debate:
1) Did Representative Ney and/or his immediate family accept money and favors from Abramoff for votes and influence favoring organized gambling?
2) Same question for Tom Delay, and Conrad.
3) At what point does a politician cross the line from "providing access" to simply taking bribes?
