This makes you wonder just how much Cunningham took in bribes. He is scum and a disgrace to conservatives everywhere.
Does anyone see the similarities to the Cunningham/Lewis scandal and Abramoff/Buckham?
Abramoff crony Ed Buckham got Rep. David Weldon (R-FL) to get appropriations for a company called Map Roi. In return, it appears that Weldon received a kickback. Just like Cunningham (and possibly Lewis).
In K Street Gang, a new book by Matthew Continetti of the Weekly Standard, the author posits that Republicans no longer believe in smaller government. Their values simply state that because the federal government has so much money, most of which the government doesn't deserve, it's OK to redirect some of it to personal accounts.
At one time, the Republican Party was a principled organization. Newt Gingrich is a visionary. But after Gingrich resigned, Tom DeLay took over. DeLay created a regime of government-by-lobbyist. The DeLay regime rotted the Republican Party.
