Another man who understands the maxim is Sen. Thad Cochran (R-MS) (pictured on the left) , a senior lawmaker who has helped control the flow of billions of dollars from his seat on the Senate Appropriations Committee for many years.
As it turned out, Abramoff had a fat contract to represent one of the wealthiest interests in Cochran's home state, the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians. So it's no surprise that in the relationship between the three -- Abramoff, Cochran, and the Choctaws -- one might find the purest example of the way money can put politicians to work. And vice versa.

Another one of the crooks caught in the crime ring of Jack and company. Many more to come. Money made alot of friends in the corruption plan. Watch out for those overseas banks they will have alot of US elected officials opening new accounts. Jack's got nothing to lose and everything to gain by spilling his guts. His so called friends back stabbed him. So maybe he'll get some time cut off his sentence if these dudes are convicted.
