Who's Sorry Now?
Anyone who got caught up in the Jackster's web is mighty sorry now, we' imagine. Tomorrow it's going to be Ohio Republican Rep. Bob Ney who will apparently plead guilty to at least one criminal charge in a deal that's being worked out now.

"Ney’s woes stem from dealings with convicted lobbyist Jack Abramoff that became public in 2004. A Texas Indian tribe told the Senate Indian Affairs committee that Ney agreed to help them re-open a closed casino in exchange for political donations and a trip to Scotland to play golf.
Ney said he was misled by Abramoff and his associates. He denied wrongdoing even after Abramoff and other lobbyists for casino-operating Indian tribes pleaded guilty to criminal charges that stemmed from efforts to ply Ney with gifts including sports tickets, meals and trips, that were in exchange for official acts."
