Most Want Bush
to Disclose Abramoff Links
By Richard Morin, Washington Post Staff Writer
[The stench of corruption emanating from the White House just won't go away. Even diehard Republicans can't stand the stink.]
A strong bipartisan majority of the public believes President Bush should disclose contacts between disgraced lobbyist Jack Abramoff and White House staff members, according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll.
The survey found that three in four -- 76 percent -- of Americans said Bush should release lists of all meetings between aides and Abramoff; 18 percent disagreed. Two in three Republicans joined with eight in 10 Democrats and political independents in favoring disclosure, according to the poll.
