Abramoff Documented Relationship With Bush
Think Progress has the e-mails Jack Abramoff wrote to the Washingtonian Magazine describing his relationship with Bush.
In the emails, Abramoff describes meeting Bush "in almost a dozen settings," and details how he was personally invited to President Bush's private ranch in Crawford, Texas, for a gathering of Bush fundraisers in 2003. Abramoff did not attend, citing a religious observance.
Abramoff told the Washingtonian editor,
HE HAS ONE OF THE BEST MEMORIES OF ANY POLITICIAN I HAVE EVER MET!. ... THE GUY SAW ME IN ALMOST A DOZEN SETTINGS, AND JOKED WITH ME ABOUT A BUNCH OF THINGS, INCLUDING DETAILS OF MY KIDS. PERHAPS HE HAS FORGOTTEN EVERYTHING. WHO KNOWS.
