Found this story from the Hill on OC congressman Dana Rohrabacher “rueing” his decision to be a reference for jailed lobbyist Jack Abramoff when Jack was angling to buy a casino.
The most interesting part of the story has to do with the Baby Gift for Dana’s triplets given by Abramoff when Rohrabacher was granted an exception to receiving gifts by the House because the gifts were baby gifts. I remember my family and friends giving cash when my kids were born. Since Dana can’t remember what Jack gave him and won’t look it up, we can only speculate.
