The New Mafioso

Jack Abramoff took a page out of every Sopranos episode or mafia movie ever made.

He made a couple of really bad movies.

He snookered a guy out of a casino business, and the guy "got killed" by a bunch of guys who claim Abramoff's partner hired them.

He made back room deals in the restaurant he owned in Washington.

And then he comes out of the courthouse looking like Al Capone reborn.

Abramoff is the capo di tutti capi of Washington, D.C. How has he gotten away with selling the American people down the river for 10 years?

I dunno about capo. I think big Jack was probably more of a bagman than anything else. He arranged for a lot of money to be moved around, but I'm not certain that he was the source or destination of most of the money. We're going to be learning a lot more here shortly. Make sure you have lots of popcorn. This is gonna be fun.
