Abramoff indicted; who else did he give money to in Congress?

Does anyone here know how to get and post a list of donations made by lobbyist Jack Abramoff to members of Congress?

I'm especially interested in learning about any ties to Duncan Hunter, chair of the Armed Services Committee.

Thanks for any help the super-sleuths here can provide!

5. Why Afraid? If They're On The Take, Let's Hear It

Corruption is corruption...and I don't care what party label it is. We'd be real hypocrites if we demanded accountability of the Repugnicans while we gave passes to Democrats who sleep in the same bed. If anything, we need to find out who these people are and have them account for their actions as much, if not more, than we would of Repugnicans.

It's a little thing called integrity.

2. You can search at newsmeat.com

That will only give you Abramoff's personal donations, though -- not the money he had the Indian tribes donate or any of the other under-the-counter ways they had of moving money around.
