More quotes by Jack Abramoff
I think the American people deserve somebody telling them what is really happening in Washington.
Jack Abramoff
I did this within a philosophical framework, and a moral and legal framework. And I have been turned into a cartoon of the greatest villain in the history of lobbying.
Jack Abramoff
Class envy is dangerous.
Jack Abramoff
All I want is for people not to see me as this cartoon monster.
Jack Abramoff
As a result, I've been portrayed as a cynical barbarian preying on the very clients I was charged to defend.

Some issues lend themselves to grassroots campaigns - homeschooling works well - but others require contrivance and connivance to whip up support. Often, lobbyists will hire vendors to dispatch blast emails and robocalls in the hopes of bombarding Congressional offices with citizen fury.
Jack Abramoff

Jack Abramoff
Having gone through what I went through, watching my family be torn to shreds and my children suffer immensely, I can't be the agent of doing that to someone else. I can't be the agent of causing someone to go to prison.
Jack Abramoff

Jack Abramoff
No one wants a domain with their name on it owned by somebody else.
Jack Abramoff

Jack Abramoff
As a lobbyist, I was completely against term limits, and I know a lot of people are against term limits, and I was one of the leaders, because why? As a lobbyist, once you buy a congressional office, you don't have to re-buy that office in six years, right?
Jack Abramoff
If you make the choice to serve the public, public service, then serve the public, not yourself.
Jack Abramoff
Well, I think the great tragedy in American politics is what is legal, not what is illegal.
Jack Abramoff
I can't afford to be a member of a golf course.
Jack Abramoff
As a lobbyist, I thought it only natural and right that my clients should reward those members who saved them such substantial sums with generous contributions. This quid pro quo became one of hallmarks of our lobbying efforts.
Jack Abramoff
I'm capable of making $44 million. I know I'm intellectually capable of finding a series of things and making hundreds of millions. I have to get there and do it. Carefully. Legally.
Jack Abramoff
Everybody's a complex person. Everybody. Everybody's nuanced.
