How Close Is Your Rep to DeLay???

[CO Liberal]

Q: Why haven't more Republicans in Congress asked Tom DeLay to resign?

A: Because so many of them depend on DeLay's campaign contributions and his web of influence in Washington.

At Public Campaign Action Fund, we decided to expose this charade. We have ranked members of Congress on how close they are to Tom DeLay using six separate measurements, which include how much DeLay's PAC gave to them, how often a member voted the same way as DeLay, and whether they had given any money to DeLay's legal defense fund.

What we came up with is posted at InDeLaysPocket.com as the DeLay Rankings.

Every member of Congress is listed with their "Delay Ranking." Visit the www.InDeLaysPocket.com to see where your member is!

1. My Rep is Dennis Hastert

Dennis has Delay's hand so far up his backside that he cannot burp unless Tom cracks his knuckles...

[snowbear]

10. LOL benburch!!!

:rofl: :spray: :rofl:

[babylonsister]

2. My rep IS Delay sadly. nt

[jojo54]

3. Can't get any closer than that, right? n/t

[Lady Effingbroke]

31. DeLay is my rep, too.

Hi, from one Houstonian (and Dan Fan) to another! :hi:

[Enquiringkitty]

4. My rep is a democrat but none of the reps in this state have really

been vocal about kicking him out.

[David Zephyr]

5. How much money did Joe Scarborough receive from Tom Delay.

Makes one wonder, huh?

How much money did Tom Delay funnel to Joe Scarborough while he was a Congressman from Florida.

[babylonsister]

8. Scarborough is hateful regardless of Delay;

How odd we think they're hateful, and some people adore them. That's the rift in our country, and it's a big one.

[kcass1954]

6. My piece of shit congressman Clay Shaw...

is #51 overall. And he's taken more money than anyone else in Florida. I can't wait to get rid of this dirtbag.

[babylonsister]

7. So write some letters , get hm out of there! nt

[FreedomAngel82]

9. Thanks for this list

My Congressman is on the list. Go figure.

Zach Wamp 3 R $20 $0 91.85% 3.34

[Jamison]

11. In Missouri

I'm not sure to what extent Bond and Talent support DeLay, but Governor Matt Blunt has vehemently defended him every step of the way.

[burrowowl]

12. Leather Wilson

whoops, I mean Heather Wilson. She is a blinking fascist of the same ilk!

[baldguy]

13. Louise M Slaughter

voted with DeLay 9.86% of the time (449 votes with, 4104 against)

[mhr]

14. Pete Sessions(R) Is Surgically Attached To His A-Hole

Need one say more?

[Suziq]

15. My Puke Rep . . .

Mike Ferguson - whose main residence is in Maryland, even though he represents a district in New Jersey. :grr:

He has taken the MOST money from Delay. :puke:

Ferguson must go in 2006!




:hippie:

[cmd]

16. My rep is Bob (Freedom Fries) Ney

I'm hoping he fries with DeLay.

[Dinger]

17. For Some Reason, I Don't See A List

Just Headings

[harpo]

18. 251 Chet Edwards 17 D $0 $0 32.16% 0.64

[July]

19. Mike Ferguson -- not #1, but received most money.

$42,403.

And judging from the numerous large multicolored campaign pieces I received before the election, he's using some of it on pretty, meaningless propaganda. He's also got a brand-, spanking-new HQ not far from me.

And no donations to DeLay. Hmmm.

[losdiablosgato]

20. MY Rep is Delay

x(

[CBHagman]

21. My rep gets a 0 .19 ranking!

Thank you, Chris Van Hollen! :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[Mark E. Smith]

22. Since My Rep Is David Dreier ...

... who knows?

[abluelady]

23. Eric Cantor - bleh

He's No. 7 on the list. What a loser. Unfortunately, he keeps running unopposed. Need some dems to move to Virginia.

[CO Liberal]

27. Hefley - twenty bucks!

I have to laugh... that's hilarious!

No love lost there, I guess...

[CO Liberal]

35. Hefley Used to be Head of the Ethcs Committee

But he was forced out by those in the GOP who were trying to protect DeLay. Hefley may be a jerk - he may be an asshole - but it looks like he may have principles....

[paulk]

36. that's what I was referring to

Kind of really shows Delay in his true light...

[xxqqqzme]

25. my rep horbacher

squeezed N2 the top 50 - he's 46

[realFedUp]

26. Why isn't David Dreier (R-closeted gay) in the top 25?

He gave DeLay $5,000 for his defense fund...
and why isn't anyone investigating the 25
overseas trips (funded by ?) that he
and his lover/Chief of Staff took?

[Dinger]

28. How Is Mark Green - Wi? (nt)

[Debi]

29. IA-1 Jim Nussle

Was asked to return Delay's PAC contributions, ignored any talk of Delay (too busy working on budget).

Nussle will be running for Governor in 2006....please make it come back to haunt him!!

[Penndems]

30. According to this E-mail message I just received from Moveon.org,

my Representative, Tom Davis, accepted $4,520 from Tom DeLay's PAC and voted 86.19% of the time with DeLay (2,897 of 3,361 votes).

Another one of The Hammer's whores!

It's time for Tom to GET OUT.

[Reverend_Smitty]

32. This is the first time I was ever pleased with my rep...

He's a pro-lifer Repuke but he's 223rd on the list, the 9th lowest Republican, which isn't too bad considering.

On edit: Chris Smith(R) NJ 4th

[watercolors]

33. Rep is Tom Feeney, Fl.

He is arrogant and useless, and in over his head with Delay!

[Coastie for Truth]

34. My Rep is Zoe Lofgren - and she is leading the drive

to draw and quarter DeLay.

[Greyskye]

37. John Doolittle (R-CA)

My p.o.s. rep is Doolittle (and does he ever!)

Report Card
Rep. John Doolittle's Connections to Tom DeLay

Accepted $4,375
from Tom DeLay's PAC

Donated $10,000
to DeLay's Legal Defense Fund

Voted 95.32%
of the time with DeLay
(4,416 of 4,633 votes)

He's not just close, he's in bed with him! Ranks a 5.41 on the 'delayspocket' scale. :grr:
