Bush and Abramoff go way back regardless of what lies he's telling now
'Although DeLay's forfeiture of his leadership post makes things easier for the White House, the Abramoff saga will continue to be a problem. Bracing for the worst, Administration officials obtained from the Secret Service a list of all the times Abramoff entered the White House complex, and they scrambled to determine the reason for each visit. Bush aides are also trying to identify all the photos that may exist of the two men together. Abramoff attended Hanukkah and holiday events at the White House, according to an aide who has seen the list. Press secretary Scott McClellan said Abramoff might have attended large gatherings with Bush but added, "The President does not know him, nor does the President recall ever meeting him."
Bush and Jack Abramoff's relationship goes back to as early as 1997 and he has the audacity to say he doesn't know him. Remember, Bush said the exact same thing when his extremely close friend, Kenny Boy Lay was caught embezzling billions from Enron.
