Here we go again with Guilt By Association

Lobbyist Access to White House Revealed in Secret Service Logs

By Michael Forsythe and Catherine Dodge

Sept. 21 (Bloomberg) — Anti-tax advocate and lobbyist Grover Norquist visited the White House at least 74 times over the last five years, according to Secret Service logs released yesterday that illustrate the access that he and other Bush administration allies enjoyed.
Norquist was one of nine people with links to disgraced lobbyist Jack Abramoff who were listed in the 1,646 pages of documents showing dates and times of appointments registered with the Secret Service.

Lobbyists who worked with Abramoff, including Tony Rudy, Neil Volz, Kevin Ring and Shawn Vasell, had among them at least 70 appointments at the White House from 2001 to 2005, according an administration official who briefed reporters on the documents. Records released earlier this year show Abramoff had at least seven White House appointments from 2001 to 2004.

Stop the presses! You mean that there wasn’t a slutty intern on the list?

Ok, so let’s play the guilt by association game which is the entire point of this article. How many Democrats are linked to and were associated with William Jefferson who was found with a lot of cold, hard cash in his fridge? I think we need to launch out against them.

So what does this story really say? It says that a man who is against obscene and arbitrary taxation visited the White House many times. DEAR LORD! It’s a SCANDAL! PUT THIS ON PAGE 1! What? Oh that story about how we’re making progress in Iraq? Yeah, well … hmmmm … put that on page D-32.
