Doolittle's name surfaced in the probe when the Washington Post reported late last year that the eight-term congressman from Roseville- a Mormon and staunch opponent of casino gambling - used Abramoff's luxury sports box in a Washington arena to host a fundraiser and then failed to report its value, as required by law.
he Post pointed to Doolittle's use of Abramoff's skybox as an example of how the lobbyist used such perks to cultivate connections with influential lawmakers as he sought to further the interests of Native American clients who owned casinos. Doolittle subsequently paid back Abramoff's firm for the use of the skybox and reported it on federal disclosure records.
So which is it? Did he report the use of the skybox or not? If he did, was it after the deadline? What gives?
Abramoff, the gift that just keeps on giving,,,,,to the Democrats.
