the justice department has recommended a jail term reduction for jack abramoff - let's just call him jack rip'emoff, shall we? - the crooked lobbyist. in case you've forgotten, rip'emoff was buddy-buddy with the bush white house and certain members of congress, and used money from his clients (such as indian tribes) to buy votes with members of congress and others.
do you smell the white house (which we're tempted to call the shite house, after the last 7 years) doing a favor for a pal, a la scooter libby?
here's our suggestion: burn him at the stake, instead. nothing sends a message like a good bbq. make sure to invite anne coulter; word is she's desparate for some new meat.
