Abramoff, Reed & John Cornyn?
Kuff captures an interesting Ft. Worth Star-Telegram piece on U.S. Senator John Cornyn's possible ties to troubled Washington super-lobbyist Jack Abramoff surrounding the Tigua casino closing in 2002, when Cornyn was Texas Attorney General. The connection? Former head of the Christian Coalition and now-candidate for Lt. Governor of Georgia Ralph Reed.
Today's NY Times, in a lengthy piece on Reed's tenuous political situation, also touches on the Tigua case, and Abramoff & Reed's connections to Cornyn.
Again, we are shocked at such behavior from these upstanding Christian men (Cornyn and Reed -- Abramoff is Jewish.) But doing the Lord's work requires sacrifice, and may even mean having to get rich. Oh, the burden.
