Tom Feeney Now Linked to DeLay Ethics Scandal!
Tom Feeney Now Linked to DeLay Ethics Scandal!
Accused of Illegally Taking Luxury Golf Trips on Lobbyist Tab!

What? Unethical Behavior by Comrade Feeney? Say it ain't so!

Looks like our friend, Comrade Feeney (R-FL), has now been linked to the ethics scandal that's been plagueing Senate Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-TX).

Feeney, who represented a Florida software firm which harbored at least one illegal alien indicted and convicted recently on espionage charges related to illegally sending missile chips to China -- is, ironically enough, throwing a "C'est la vie, Comrade Rather" fundraising party this evening.

But according to today's LA Times -- surprise, surprise! -- Feeney is now being identified as having taken expensive luxury golf trips with DeLay and friends to St. Andrews, Scotland on the tab of a Republican lobbying firm now under criminal investigation!

FULL STORY: http://www.bradblog.com/archives/00001246.htm

For those just joining in on this story, a quick summary of the Clint Curtis/Tom Feeney/Yang Enterprises Vote-Rigging Scandal, is now available at:

9. This S.O.B. never was any good.
He is the kind of guy you just want to slap just because he looks the way he does. He is nothing but a fucking punk.

10. I know Billy Tauzin is no longer a congressman
(Praise the Lord and pass the booze....I'm in his district) But I hope somebody can tie him into this Delay mess and prove that the little twit did something illegal so he may spend his "golden years" rotting inside a prison cell. Tauzin is/was just as corrupt as Delay, and I hope something comes out during Delay's investigation to prove what a slimy scumbag the man truly is.

17. I can make that link in one fell swoop...
Feeney was Jeb Bush's running mate for FL Governor in 1994.

We report, you decide.

13. Address all repubs as "comrade" and bush as Dear leader....
Always use a descriptive adjective preceding Bush's name, such as incompetent, fascist, war criminal, etc, and Dear Leader would be as good as any.....along with his comrades of course!

14. Let's see how long it takes for Feeney's hometown newspaper
(Orlando Sentinel) to pick up on the LA Times report.

15. what makes you think msm will do anything with this?
Edited on Wed Mar-09-05 10:00 PM by ellenfl
there's no outrage about anything happening out there. it will all get swept under the rug with the wmds, abu ghraib, italian journalists, unarmored humvees, guckertgate, halliburton . . . i could go on. all you're going to hear about is michael jackson and martha, martha, martha.

i surely would like to find a national media outlet that gives a damn. and i sure would like to see tom feeney taken down . . . right after the hammer.
