2. Bush Florida 2000 recount committee still owes lobbyist's former firm$320K

They say a picture is worth a thousand words.

If so, the photograph taken of President George W. Bush and embattled House Majority Leader Tom DeLay was priceless—the windswept DeLay strutting down the tarmac beside the president, two Republican leaders rankled by political setbacks joined at the hip.

There’s a backstory that lurks behind Bush’s decision to stand by DeLay. It involves Greenberg Traurig, the firm that employed the powerful lobbyist who paid for palatial DeLay junkets. Greenberg Traurig has yet to receive more than $320,000 in legal fees charged to a Bush committee during the 2000 Florida recount, RAW STORY can confirm.
