Tom DeLay's Texas-size scandal
God, what a sleazy little scumbag -
Following the indictments of three top DeLay lieutenants last week, two other top DeLay associates Jack Abramoff and Michael Scanlon, key members of the fundraising and lobbying empire known as DeLay Inc., are under investigation for questionable activities.Hey, Martha Stewart's going to prison!
Today the Senate will hold hearings on the whether Jack Abramoff, a top lobbyist with close ties to DeLay, created charities to hide client payments and protect income from taxation. DeLay also created children's charities to cover his political activities.
[I]t stretches credulity to maintain, as Mr. Delay does, that even though he was actively involved in raising money for his Texas group, making fund-raising appearances, and discussing its strategy and effectiveness in supporting Texas races, he was largely in the dark about its day-to-day operations.
