Prosecutor in DeLay case subpoenas records from defense contractors
California companies tied to Cunningham bribery case

WASHINGTON (AP) -- A Texas prosecutor has issued subpoenas for bank records of a defense contractors involved in the bribery case of a California congressman as part of the investigation of former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay.

District Attorney Ronnie Earle issued subpoenas last Thursday for California businessmen Brent Wilkes and Max Gelwix, records of Perfect Wave Technologies, Wilkes Corp. and ADCS Inc. in connection with a contribution to a fundraising committee.

It's at the center of the investigation that led to DeLay's indictment on money laundering charges.

Perfect Wave contributed $15,000 in September 2002 to Texans for a Republican Majority, a fundraising committee founded by DeLay.

3. This is the unraveling of the GOP blueprint of the last twenty years.
I wish someone would go after their media plan, too, since we all know it's connected.

4. Hastert best wait until 2007 to reopen the House.
I think Tom will be pre-occupied in 2006. Hopefully, it will be a moot point after November 2006. Finally, we get to the heart of the Republican corruption. Boy, are the uninformed American public going to be surprised when the Republican Syndicate boil, bursts.
