1) According to the Bush's administration's own logs, Jack Abramoff and his lobbying team met with members of the Bush administration almost 200 times during the first 10 months of his presidency.
2) Jack Abramoff was a Bush Pioneer, and raised more than $100,000.00 for the Bush campaign in 2000.
5) Jack Abramoff raised $36,000.00 for Bush from corporate interests in the Marianas Islands who wanted attempts at minimum wage laws shut down.
4) Under the open records act, Jack Abramoff and Bush have ties going back as far as 1997.
5) At least 2 people who worked at Abramoff's firm, Preston Gates, ended up as members of the Bush administration: David Safavian and Patrick Pizella. Safavian, of course, is under indictment stemming from his efforts to shut down the Abramoff investigation.
