LJ-SEC: (ORIGINALLY POSTED BY wyldraven)

Excerpted from an email sent by Public Campaign Action Fund Campaign Money Watch

Yesterday, Ralph Reed's corruption was exposed by a Senate Committee report on convicted lobbyist Jack Abramoff, American Indian casinos, and the web of deceit and scandal in Washington. Reed, as you know, is the former head of the Christian Coalition and current candidate for Lieutenant Governor of Georgia.

In a nearly 400-page report, the Senate Indian Affairs Committee revealed emails in which Abramoff said that Reed was an ideologue "as far as cash goes." In addition, one of the tribal casino leaders said that they needed to hide their payments to Reed: "It can’t get out. He’s Christian Coalition. It wouldn’t look good if they’re receiving money from a casino-operating tribe to oppose gaming. It would be kind of like hypocritical." (see the source below)

Pages 23ff (39ff by PDF numbering) are particularly interesting. I haven't read the entire 373 page report yet.
