More Sunshine in Alabama

December 18th, 2007 by Steve

Speaking of sunshine, Alabamians may be getting some sunshine from DC.  From Left in Alabama:

Light shining on the White House visitor logs, that is.  Especially regarding the visits of Republican lobbyist Jack Abramoff:

He was a benefactor of the 1990s Republican effort to paint Washington lobbyists in Red State red. He dabbled in Alabama politics, helping a Mississippi Indian casino secretly fund anti-lottery forces. He was a big-time friend of the Bush administration, making hundreds of contacts in one 10-month period of 2001. The mind reels imagining the volume of contacts and White House visits between then and early 2006, when Abramoff was convicted on fraud charges.

Yesterday a federal judge declared that the White House visitor logs are public information.  Let the light shine in.
