All WV Congressional Reps received Abramoff Money
A nonpartisan Washington, D.C., group that tracks political funding said campaign finance reports filed with the Federal Election Commission show Rahall received the money from American Indian tribes associated with Abramoff.
The information about Rahall was included in a report titled "Casting Off Abramoff." The report was compiled by the Center for Responsive Politics and outlines the political contributions of Abramoff's clients since 1999.
Republican Congresswoman Shelley Moore Capito received $4,000 from Abramoff's clients and announced last week she would donate it to the Sago Mine Fund for families of the coal mining tragedy.
West Virginia's remaining House member, Democrat Alan B. Mollohan, received just $750 from a group linked to Abramoff, according to the report.

Damm,another dilemma. We can't send all the Mexicans back to Mexico and we can't fire all the crooked politicians. Or can we?
I have always wanted to be a Politician,
is there a School that teaches Lieing 101,or stealing 101. About taking bribes 101. Or maybe even a E-class
online.Well maybe Mr Mollohan could be the professor he'd make a good one folks.
