Abramoff/Bush pictures are out

The NYTimes and Time have 'em. Looking at the picture, you think, what's the big deal, why are they hiding this?

But, notice in the articles that this picture was taken during a meeting with state legislators at which Mr. Abramoff, and his soon to be client had no official business. In other words, Abramoff, in order to sign a contract with Kickapoo chief and fellow embezzler Garza, gained access to an event at which he had no reason to be. Somebody at the White House got him into that function, into that room.

I said it once before, I'm not too concerned about Bush/Abramoff meetings, I'd be far more interested in Rove/Abramoff meetings. Remember that Susan Ralston, Rove's top assistant used to be Abramoff's top assistant. Note the NYTimes cryptic inclusion, "also shows in partial profile Karl Rove."

Also, the NYTime says they have two more pictures from Garza of Abramoff/Bush.
