Abramoff pleads guilty in federal court

In other Abramoff news, he has pleaded guilty to conspiracy, mail fraud and tax evasion. Again, this is no surprise as it was expected of him. However, the consequences of this conviction may be felt far and wide.

Abramoff faces 30 years in prison, and he will cooperate with federal prosecutors in a wide-ranging corruption investigation that is believed to be focusing on as many as 20 members of Congress and aides.

Now the fun can really begin!

I'm salivating over the prospect of these corrupt politicians being exposed like roaches caught in the kitchen when you flip the lights on.

Well, not MY kitchen.
