Up to a half dozen people, including two members of Congress, could face charges after high-powered lobbyist Jack Abramoff's plea deal with the Justice Department

Did any of the charges that Abramoff plead to have anything to do with bribing or trying to influence members of Congress?

There are 5. Nice of CNX to cheery pick the facts and selectively report them. Byron Dorgan and Harry Reid, two of the 5 Congress critters under investigation are VERY high powered Democrat Leader's. Anyone even KNOW who Ney is? Never heard of the guy personally.

Link to releated FR thread that will link you to the Washington Times story.
