Well, well, well... 
I'm a little bit concerned about the source of this information, but it seems that:
| Quote: | Today, Harry Reid and 31 Democrats asked Attorney General Alberto Gonzales to remove himself from the Abramoff investigation because they feel Abramoff's "dealings with President Bush and others in the administration should compel Gonzales to step aside."
It comes as no surprise that 28 of the 31 Senators who signed the letter alleging a conflict of interest have their own connections to Abramoff...
...The following are the 28 Democrats who signed the letter accusing Gonzales of a conflict of interest who have taken donations from Abramoff's clients and associates, followed by the amount.
.....
Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) - $95,550
....

And sKerry is the single biggest recipient on the list! Stay tuned: this could get real interesting. |

Oooooh, yummmmmmy! That's the second story I've read on Reid specifically - and if this takes Kerry down, too... ohmigosh! That's way more icing than cake!
And if it's true, I will not ever ask God for anything else political, again! (okay, not until the next election)

"clean politicians" is KINDA like "Army Intelligence", an oxymoron. |

Easy Amos. Kerry got burned on "Army Intelligence" a couple of
weeks ago.

maybe that's where Amos got it?
I think Kerry, Reid etc should all step down.... seems like an 'ethics' conflict of interest to me...
