SUB-ROSA NEWS
Some of the News
That may be True
News Item: Some members of the House of Representatives and some Senators have been rushing to return monies received from Jack Abramoff or his associated enterprises. As an alternative, they are making donations to charities. Presiden Bush has done the same.
Comment: What earthly good does this do? Can they return the access granted, contracts awarded, or votes cast? If these actions can redeem or cure the wrong, I suppose a jewel thief could avoid punishment by returning the loot. Or maybe Ken Lay could give back the money and have the charges dropped.
