DeLay prompts new FAA rules

Republican Rep. Tom DeLay's use of the Federal Aviation Administration to track down a Texas lawmaker resisting GOP redistricting plans has led the FAA to introduce new rules to restrict such inquiries. The rules, which were announced at a House Transportation Committee hearing, would forbid FAA employees from revealing the whereabouts of a plane unless the request is for an official government purpose or for safety or efficiency reasons.

2. What surprised me...

Is that I thought DeLay was still denying any part in this. I must have missed the confession...
