“On May 9, 2001, five of lobbyist Jack Abramoff's clients met with the President at the White House.

Telling his clients they had to be event "sponsors" to attend, Mr. Abramoff convinced at least two clients to write $25,000 checks to Americans For Tax Reform (ATR)… Though they did not attend the event, the Choctaw Indians donated $25,000 to be a "sponsor" of the meeting, according to a June 8, 2005 Associated Press report”

HMMM… Buy my Norquist and I’ll throw in a Bush at no extra charge…
