uh..1-a-and-a-2-ah...ALL TOGETHER NOW!...Waaaaaaah! Waaaaaah!

:rofl: Why do these asswipes always CRY when they get caught? I wonder if he was crying while helping Abramoff do his dirty deeds? I think NOT!



Safavian Seeks Leniency in Abramoff Case
By MATT APUZZO, Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON - Former Bush administration official David Safavian wept as he asked for leniency in his obstruction of justice case Friday, telling a judge that his lobbyist friend Jack Abramoff manipulated him and drew him into the scandal.

Safavian, who was convicted in June of lying to investigators about his relationship with the lobbyist while Safavian was chief of staff in the General Services Administration. He helped provided Abramoff with details about GSA projects and offered advice on dealing with the agency.

At sentencing Friday, Safavian apologized for giving the appearance of impropriety but said it was not fraudulent.

"Yes, Jack Abramoff was a friend but he wasn't my coconspirator and I wasn't his," Safavian said. "There was no conspiracy to defraud anyone, least of all the taxpayers."<snip>

5. They knew it was wrong
when they did it and they did not care they did it anyway. Now they are exposed for being both criminal and disgusting. That would make me cry. Then again, they could just be crocodile tears. :shrug:

14. Is it odd that he is only being convicted of obstruction of justice?
The only thing he did wrong, the only thing he is being sentenced for is 'lying to investigators'. Is that an Al Capone thing - he is guilty of more, but this is the only one they can make stick?

15. I have no clue.
Maybe there is just too much :shrug:. Maybe more will be coming and they are just using what they can really use and prove right now? No idea.

8. I have exactly the same amount of sympathy for this guy as *Blivet had
for Karla Faye Tucker.

What I find fascinating is that no matter which Republophile is confronted with any deed requiring some sort of accountability, it is never their fault. It's almost like visiting a prison and asking 'what're ya in for?' Invariably, the con is always innocent.

9. David was just a poor, naive, young guy
Quite unlike those predatory 16-year-old pages who so ruthlessly destroyed Congressman Foley.

10. Maybe he should have gone with the classic GOP defence ...
... he was molested as a child, which led him to the bottle, which clouded his judgment.
