« Yet another Talking Points Memo Home | NBC's Andrea Mitchell

There you go. Another small fish about to get indicted in the Abramoff investigtion. This time it's Italia Federici. But what about the big fish in that one? Sure Jack himself is going to do serious time. And Bob Ney is already in the slammer for a relatively short stint. But for all the very real consternation about the eight fired US Attorneys and the Cunningham probe, in many ways, the Abramoff investigation is really the dog that never barked. What about Tom DeLay's fixer Ed Buckham? What about Tom DeLay for that matter? And the other members of Congress implicated in the scandal? The prosecutorial turnover in the Abramoff scandal bears a lot more attention, as does the current US Attorney for the District of Columbia, Jeffrey A. Taylor.

And here's a bonus for you guys in the White House press corps. When do we get to see those pictures of Vice President Cheney with alleged Cunningham briber Brent Wilkes? Maybe it's time for someone up there to put in the question.
