Casino Jack Page #2
-Ice tea?
-Thank you.
-Merlot with three ice cubes.
-Thank you.
Seriously, I think I once got a
lap dance from her on "Nexus Gold."
-I wouldn't know, Mikey. I'm married.
-I thought I recognized her too, si.
I liked the good lord would
prefer I have deaf ear on this one.
-We all set?
-Check! 18 holes,
St. Andrews, 5 stars hotel.
Hugh Fraser, the British
Open champion on hand
to give a lesson lolly f***ing doll.
Restaurants tour in Edinburgh,
two days stopover at the
Hyde Park Oriental in London.
Oh... VIP tickets to
The Lion King for Tom.
Nice soft grip, soft hand.
Take a whack at her. Come on.
Great shot!
Great! Now I gotta sandbag my drive
so Ponchos doesn't spew on his shoes.
Ponchos been prime to arrange that
he got his picture taken with Bush.
Three years ago, his tribe is weaving
pine needles and selling key chains.
Now he must be able to drive a
Hummer and buy condos in Hawaii.
You tell me why these clowns get to
own casinos and made 20 millions a year?
Well, I don't know? Maybe
that's not good enough
reason for you, champ?
-Are you part Mohawk now?
-Yes indeed, Kimosabe!
-One of the lost tribes of Israel.
-Yep yep. You tried to play Indian.
-No wonder they liked you so much.
-Background talking crowd.
You know what blows my mind?
All these Indians are so
damn rich and still acting
like Wal-mart shoppers.
He is a multi-millionaire,
Jack, with a $10 watch.
Listen, if you and I could
accessed some of that liquid,
-we would be running D.C. in no time.
-What are you suggesting?
I'm suggesting that they pay us a
ridiculous amount of money, okay.
And then, you and I can split
the fees 50-50 under the table.
It's a little tough on the
Chippewa, not to mention is it legal?
What are they gonna do? Cancel
my membership at the ACLU?
You know, I've got a
limit on what I can charge.
Shucks for you but I'm freelance, Jack!
I'm grass root, baby. You're always
complaining about living hand to mouth
You know what? You deserve better.
And Chief Shack-a-lot there, is
our ticket out of our leady health.
-That's it, chief.
-Okay, put together a pitch for Tonto,
-let's see what he says.
-It looks good.
Now chief, it's a simple thing.
Look, I've handled the Coushattas,
the Tiguas, the Aguas, Caliente's...
and I tell them all
the same thing, chief.
I know what it feels like
to be a persecuted minority.
Yeah, well it's about
time you guys in Washington
finally did something
good for Indian people.
Like give America back?
You've got a real sense of
humor, Jack. I like that.
Look! The casinos are a
plus if it's profitable.
But in reality the gaming
industry is very competitive.
You know, the Jena tribe, they want
to open up their own casino now.
-They're just one state away.
-Yeah, I know those guys.
They can be brutal.
They can shut you down mega
fast. No more Chippewa casinos.
You need our help, chief.
-You heard Mike's proposal?
-It's a tough call.
It's a hell of a fees you're asking for.
-Kind of a record, isn't it?
-But think of the billions
that you're gonna saved.
I can guaranteed you that goddamn
Jena tribe casino will never opens.
And before you know it, the Jena
tribe gonna be back selling moccasins.
You know, Mr. Abramoff, we
can't afford to lose this one.
You won't. Swear to God!
Give me five!
I told you, team Abramoff!
-Team Abramoff!
-To giving America back to the Indians
All hail to Washington
-biggest retainer.
-F***ing A!
You're no one in this town, if you
haven't met Jack f***ing A Abramoff.
-Take it easy, Bill.
Jack, you know I
believe my fianc Emily,
-everybody from the Bush's inaugural.
-I'll never forget that night.
McCain was in his office
pounding Bush bills: "We lost!"
It's very sincere moderate
believe from every voters.
Amen to that!
Hey, Jack. Those Polynesian
factories you wrapped
to make the blue jeans
on the Mariana Islands...
-Yeah, what about them?
-Words on the streets,
is they're goddamn sweat
shops and rape camps.
Oh, all you guys from the
Washington Post wants to be
Woodward Bernstein. F***ing pathetic.
That's so? The Labour
department just fined your client
$9 million dollars.
Must be for something.
Hey listen, bad breath. The mistakes
will happen but the truth is you can't
tell me those immigrants are making
more money than they would in China
-sending it back to their families.
-That's right,
we are greasing the wheels
with American dollars, baby.
-Capitalism at its finest.
-Doing the Lord's works.
Doesnt sound much like
American democracy to me.
Don't be stupid. No democracy,
no f***ing capitalism. No
capitalism, no f***ing democracy.
Chrissy only goddamn communists
slave-driven Bolshevism.
-Thank you, Joe McCarthy.
-F***ing elitist.
-What?
-What's wrong with you? Calm down.
Someone called 911.
Scott is a hemophilic.
You just hit a hemophilic reporter
from the Washington Post. Come on!
-Grey another bleeding liberal.
-It's okay. It's fine.
Did you see that?
This is not good.
-Enid, get Delay for me, will you?
-Should I remind him
of Bible class Thursday afternoon?
- Bible class is Thursday?
- Yeah... Jack.
Remember I switch it
with your golf game.
Well... Enid, you know
sometimes even those of us
who occupied the oval office
can have our senior moments.
Yes, Mr. President.
Oh Jack... Mr. Rouvelas is here.
Make sure I see it
before it goes out, okay!
Manny.
-Let's grab a coffee.
-Hey listen, if it's about
the Jarrell incident, no worries...
I fired him yesterday.
The guy was a loose cannon.
It's not like The Post is an
important paper in this town.
-Yeah, can we saved this for later?
-Bear with me, it's important.
Alright, Manny. So, where's the fire?
partners felt we needed
someone who have friends
in the Bush administration.
It's not about friends,
Manny... it's about ideas.
Then you guys on the
right used to have ideas.
But now that communism is gone,
all you think about is money.
So you invite me out for an iced
vanilla cha just to remind me
that I'm a right wing fascist, that's
kind of beneath you, isn't it Manny!?
What's beneath me... Jack, are the
clients you dragged into my shop.
Bottom feeder in the rag
trade in the Mariana Islands.
You know there's an upside
for the poor Chinese.
They get to send money back to
their families in the mainland.
And look at all the great
works we're doing for
the Choctaw, the Chippewa...
That all sounds nice
and philanthropy, Jack-
but you're buddies with the White House.
Hell, you're the reason that idiot
cinched the Republican nomination.
That because we destroyed
McCain in the South.
Bush still owes you.
Why not used that? Aim a little
higher when bringing in clients.
-Such as? -Such as..
Fortune 500-company or two.
You mean rich, white people?
Listen, I've got a situation
in Florida with a client...
a very important client.
With your background in gaming,
