Jack Abramoff now hosts a right wing radio show on XM Talk 168, Sundays 5:00 to 8:00 PM EST, and is the author of "Capitol Punishment: The Hard Truth About Corruption From America's Most Notorious Lobbyist". Further info. can be seen on his Web site: abramoff.com An overall interesting discourse between a conservative and two far lefties who want to better understand the mindset of those that have too much influence on political power.
