4. Could we possibly hope this might snowball into overall campaign reform?
Or would that be asking way too much?

9. And sex shops. Let us make sure the fundy base hears about the sex shops
<snip> The DeLay trip to the South Pacific island, originally reported by a "20/20" investigation, was part of an effort by former aide Jack Abramoff to stop legislation aimed at cracking down on sweatshops and sex shops* in the American territory, which is known as the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI).

* boldface to focus attention to the fact that this was an attempt to stop a crackdown on sweatshops and the sex industry.

8. And to think he's blaming it on the liberal media!
Edited on Wed Apr-06-05 08:39 PM by rocknation
Where else would the "liberal media" be getting this stuff but Rove, Cheney (he has publicly stated that DeLay's remarks about the judges were not "appropriate"), or his fellow Repubs who promised to back him in return for financial support during the next election!!!

10. If we had a liberal media.......
the Tom DeLay's would be exposed and defeated before they had a chance to infest our Capitol Building.
