The Cleveland Plain Dealer has more on Ney including this:
Ohio Republican Rep. Bob Ney didn't recall meeting with members of the Tigua tribe of Texas when Senate investigators questioned him during a probe of rogue lobbyist Jack Abramoff.
But leaders of the El Paso tribe who lost $4.2 million to Abramoff remember details of their get-together in Ney's Capitol Hill office and even took pictures with Ney....
....In an interview on Monday, Hisa said he found it "strange" that Ney told Senate investigators that he didn't remember meeting with the tribe and wasn't familiar with the Tigua.
Ney accepted $32,000 from the tribe and had agreed to put legislative language in a bill to reopen a closed casino it owned. The measure never became law because it lacked Senate support. E-mails disclosed last week by the Senate committee show that Abramoff and Ney knew in July 2002 that the Tigua's provision was dead in the Senate, but didn't tell the tribe until that October....
Keep denying it, Bob.
