Oh come on!
Ok, I not sure if you follow politics. Tom Delay is the house majority leader. He is currently in an ethics battle over taking gifts from a lobbyist. Apparently some members of his family and staff took a trip if warm sandy beaches on the lobbyist’s dime. Shortly after that the Indian casino the lobbyist represented got some very favorable legislation.
Last night conservatives hosted a dinner to support this unjustly accused clearly upstanding man. Some 900 supporters paid very large sums of money to eat bad chicken. Who was in attendance? Well according to the New York Times, few republican leaders, no one from the white house and only a hand full of members from congress. Even one republican congressman who was scheduled to speak was a no show. The majority in attendance was lobbyists.
I glad to hear that is all cleared up…

Democracy for America is going to put a billboard up in DeLay's district to tell him how they feel about him. Vote for your favorite slogan. My fave: "America for Sale! Call Tom DeLay for details."
