Bush met lobbyist Jack Abramoff almost a dozen times over the past five years and invited him to Crawford, Tex., in the summer of 2003, according to an e-mail Abramoff wrote to a reporter last month.
Bush "has one of the best memories of any politicians I have ever met," Abramoff wrote. "The guys saw me in almost a dozen settings, and joked with me about a bunch of things, including details of my kids." [If Bush has such a good memory, why can't he remember his own speeches??]
