A 3rd DeLay Trip Under Scrutiny (RATE IT UP!)
I know there are several threads relating to bugman's shady dealings already in action. But this YAHOO story is in serious need of the DU treatment.

1. And send a letter to your reprensentatives with True Majority's easy form
DeLay's multiple ethics offenses make him unfit to lead in the U.S. Congress. Does your representative support Decency, or DeLay? Ask them to SPEAK UP NOW.

3. Delay is OUT OF CONTROL
methinks - he's been sniffing the bug spray again and his tinfoil hat is on too tight

5. Link to freaky freeper coniptions -
They are 100% delusional, and that's being clinical about their conditions.

Exhibit A - -

What a crock; the Corrupt Old Media is on a partisan witch hunt against DeLay, and you want to give them credibility for it?!

DeLay is as clean as can be. This is all manufactured nonsense, and it won't work.

You can do a search on Yahoo for negative stories about Delay and rate them all up.

7. This story made page A01 in today's Washington Post
Good. It's about time That Tom Delay's dirty dealing gets more attention.

Anyone see anything about this story on the morning news? My stomach is not strong enough to watch this morning.

8. Voting does little good...
...because the freepers can vote it right down again. Notice that the primary Yahoo "most popular" link goes to stories that have been emailed a lot. To get a story noticed, email it using the link at the bottom of the page. A story that's emailed many times can't be voted down.

To repeat, to get a Yahoo story on the "most popular" list, EMAIL IT TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW USING THE LINK AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE!
