Little, Evil, Apparently Walleyed Man
If you need any more reason why should contribute to Richard Morrison (the guy who's running against Tom DeLay), read the latest from Krugman, who gives a nice summation of DeLay's decade-long successful efforts to eliminate checks and balances in the Texas and U.S. governments, guarantee a constant flow of corporate money to candidates who do his (and his corporate sugar daddies') bidding, and irrevocably entrench Republican power--all at the behest of the Kingdom of God! Krugman explains why it's basically a fluke that DeLay is even being investigated. As for our hopes for a good outcome from the investigation, Krugman notes, "Four of the five Republicans on the House ethics committee, where a complaint has been filed against Mr. DeLay, are past recipients of Armpac [DeLay's political action committee] money."
