More Bad News For DeLay
Tom DeLay's chief money man, Jack Abramoff, is making more bad press today. As the Washington Post reports:
"Lobbyist Jack Abramoff used money from a Mississippi tribal client to set up bogus Christian anti-gambling groups and to fund pet projects including gear for a "sniper school" in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, according to documents released yesterday by Senate investigators."
Meanwhile, rumors around Austin suggest more indictments of people close to DeLay, if not the Congressman himself, could be forthcoming by week's end.
