DeLay, the Darling of the Dems
Rich Galen Wednesday, March 16, 2005
- "... Espo & Tom DeLay ..." Here's the link to the Espo piece on the Dem's attacks on DeLay..
- "... DeLay & Travel ..." Here's a link to the WashPost piece on a recent trip taken by Rep. DeLay.
The story tries to make the case that gambling interests donated to a foundation, which then funded the trip, which DeLay should have known.
There is nothing, to my knowledge, in House rules which require a foundation to raise funds specifically for Member travel; segegate those funds; inform the Member of the source of those funds; and have the Member report those sources on his or her ethics report.
- "... Espo & Legislation ..." Here's the link to the Espo piece on GOP legislative successes in the early going of 2005.
- Mullfoto of the Day
I did not know, prior to my waiting for a bag at the Spokane Airport, that there were any singing nuns there, much less the world famous - world renowned - ones.
Dominique, nique
Nique s'en allait tout simplement
Routier pauvre et chantant
En tous chemins, en tous lieux
Il ne parle que du bon Dieu
Il ne parle que du bon Dieu
Catchy Caption of the Day
U2s Bono doing his famed "Saddam-dental-exam" riff as the band was being inducted into the Rock 'n Roll Hall of fame at the Waldorf Astoria hotel in New York City Monday night.
The actual Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame is not in the Waldorf or anyplace else in New York. It's in Cleveland! If Bono can go to Uganda, don't you think he would have gone to Lake Erie?
