Subject: Tom Delay said he was going to Washington to fight corruption
Written By: ChuckyG on 04/06/05 at 9:53 am
I guess he meant fight FOR corruption
The wife and daughter of Tom DeLay, the House majority leader, have been paid more than $500,000 since 2001 by Mr. DeLay's political action and campaign committees, according to a detailed review of disclosure statements filed with the Federal Election Commission and separate fund-raising records in Mr. DeLay's home state, Texas.
and
A six-day trip to Moscow in 1997 by then-House Majority Whip Tom DeLay (R-Tex.) was underwritten by business interests lobbying in support of the Russian government, according to four people with firsthand knowledge of the trip arrangements.
DeLay reported that the trip was sponsored by a Washington-based nonprofit organization. But interviews with those involved in planning DeLay's trip say the expenses were covered by a mysterious company registered in the Bahamas that also paid for an intensive $440,000 lobbying campaign.
I guess it''s ok, because the press hasn't talked about it hardly at all.

Now, come on Chucky, you know this MUST be a joke as the left-wing press hasn't jumped all over it ::)
You mean the same left-wing press that ignored the Jeff Gannon story and is now ignoring comments by prominent Republicans that they can understand why judges should get shot? Yes, it must be a joke. Either that or the press itself is a joke. Or the joke is on us.

The name DeLay itself is pretty good. I call him Tom Dismay for what I feel whenever I hear a story about him!
::)
Well, you know, consensual oral sex is the kind of depravity the Lord despises above all else! The Bible says it's perfectly fine to lie, cheat, steal, and bribe as long as it is in service of getting your own way!

Getting your own way and Tom DeLay kind of ryhme, doin't you think? This guy is so corrupt it is unbelievable, and our lap dog media just rolls over, sticks it butt in the air and says "Do me". I'm shocked, shocked I say to find corruption in high places -Oh, thanks for the bribe (a paraphrase from Casablanca as Louie left Rick's)
