Dear Tom DeLay: Please, please - the only response you should give these ijits is this picture addressed "to whom this may concern."

These attacks on Tom will prove fruitless. The conservative base will rise up to defend this great man.
So, he did it but now he's upset because they reported it?
I would like to know who these others are. If Delay continues to be hounded, I hope he names names.
And they didn't report when others did the same thing.
Which is true enough, but it doesn't change the fact that he is paying family members with campaign funds. Which may not be illegal, but it sure doesn't smell very good.
Not exactly. He is upset because it is reported so that the reader believes this is something unusual and possibly illegal. Bad Republicans doing bad things.
The NYSlimes failed to report that this is pretty much standard procedure for Senators (both sides of the aisle).
We all must remember to consider the source of any story.

And if its in a brown paper bag, obtained from buddhist monks it doesn't even get reported. Another left wing hatchet job. $500,000 for 2 people for 4+ years.... < $62,500 gross for each. How much did Tom Dassholes wife reap for lobbying???
If you break that down over 4 years that's roughly $60,000 per year each.
Is that too much for a campaign wage?
Amen. Tom Delay is one of the most ethical men in Congress, and this MSM witchunt is disgusting.
His fellow Republicans better stand behind him and not chicken out.
When lib pols do this, nothing is said. I, for one, smell the same stink in the air as we had when Newt was Speaker....and it ain't comin' from our side. After watching the MSM and lib/dems (especially over the past 90 days), an agenda/concerted effort to get Delay is starting to take shape.
"The conservative base will rise up to defend this great man."
The conservatives will but who knows about the moderate nobles they are ticked at him big time cause he intervened on behalf of one American.
i agree that his wife and daughter have a right to be employed, but not by him.
his wife and daughter can go out and get their own jobs, like everyone else.
i objected when democrats employed their own families, and i object to this.
it's wrong, and should be illegal. period.
Tom Delay will not bend, he is one tough customer and he doesn't need anybody to stand up for him, and I doubt anyone will dare to abandone him.
But it's not illegal, that's the whole point
In other words, all of Congress is on the take...............
it sux.
whether the democrats do it, or the republicans do it, it's w-r-o-n-g.
husbands, wives, kids, parents, siblings should go get their own jobs.
It would be easier to name who the others aren't. Most Congresscritters pay their family members at prevailing rate for their campaigning.
The MSM at it's finest!!
