The saga of pictured of Bush and Abramoff is getting bigger by the day:

WASHINGTON — Several White House officials have been briefed about
pictures of President Bush and Republican lobbyist Jack Abramoff taken since
2001 but will not release them, on grounds that they are not relevant to the
ongoing money-for-favors investigation, aides said Monday.

“Trying to say there’s more to it than the president taking a picture in
a photo line is just absurd,” White House spokesman Scott McClellan told
reporters. Bush, he said, does not recall meeting Abramoff and did not do
any favors for the disgraced lobbyist.

Abramoff, who recently pleaded guilty in the growing bribery and
corruption scandal, was with Bush about a dozen times when pictures were
taken by the official White House photographer or other participants over
the past five years, according to a source familiar with Abramoff’s legal
situation. Abramoff, this source said, displayed at least five of them on
his office desk and has told people the president talked about his
children’s names as well as personal details about their schooling during
one encounter.

So if the pictures mean nothing then why was McClellan feeling like he should
of lied to America so many times over the past several weeks? Apparently the
White House feels like it does mean something or they would just go ahead and
release the pictures. This is just adding to the growing pile of proof that we
need Bush kicked out of the White House and charged with the crimes he continues
to commit.
