    Wag the dog?


    Strangely, have never met

    The Associated Press
    Monday, January 8, 2007; 7:35 PM


    WASHINGTON -- A liberal watchdog group published on its Web site Monday a picture of President Bush and imprisoned lobbyist Jack Abramoff, the kind of photo the White House has refused to release.

    The picture was taken at a campaign fundraiser in December 2003, according to the Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington. It was taken by a private photo contractor who posted it on a Web site, but then was removed before it made it into distribution, said Melanie Sloan, CREW's director.

    --

    Kim Eisler, Washingtonian magazine writer and a friend of Abramoff's, confirmed the photo's authenticity for The Associated Press. He said he had seen the picture at Abramoff's house.

    I'll bet with all the pictures Bush or any other President makes with people we
    could even find one of Bush and boutons.

    It's not the picture. It's the lying about the picture.

    You mean like: "I didn't have sex with that woman" or lying to a grand jury.
    Something like that.

    My understanding was that they just would release any pictures. But I could be
    wrong. Everyone knew whathisface made lots of trips to the WH.

    But...oh, never mind.

    , I have a picture with the President and he doesn't know me from Jack.

    Anyone in here ever heard of a photo op?

    Trivia question for the day. Just how many people have their picture taken with the President of the United States every year?

    Bonus: How many of those people does the President know personally?

    Oh, and SpunkChomper, I think you'd have a point if Jack Abramhoff had sucked W's and the President was testifying under oath.

    Yeah, Chumper! Quit hating on the Prez. He didn't lie under oath, he just lied normally, which is perfectly acceptable.

    You know for a matter of fact that he's lying from one photo. Ok.

    Abramhoff was the single biggest GOP fundraiser, and had his pic snapped with Georgie. Either Shrub is as stupid as we say he is, or he's a liar extraordinaire. I would like to give him the benefit of the doubt and say that politician's know their donors, and he fibbed, but you may actually be right: he may be that stupid, and not lying.

    I hate W, but this could easily be written off as a photoshop or a photo op, lie or no, this is too easy to wiggle out of.

    Photo shops are usually VERY easy to spot by experts, and don't you think the White House would have brought some in by now? Their silence is deafening.

    whatevz. If you found a picture with OBL and Saddam arm-in-arm, you'd be the first one screaming that it proved conclusively that the Iraq war was justified. You're so full of crap sometimes.

    Yeah, when you combine the photo with the megabytes and reams of do entation of their relationship, already recovered from Iraq, yep, I'd say that would be pretty conclusive. But, I don't expect a photo because it appears they operated through proxies.
