Delay Used Government Staff for Politics AFTER Leaving Congress
The Lone Star Project is reporting today that our Congressquitter Tom DeLay might not be following all the laws since he left office. I'm shocked, shocked I tell you.

Delay Used Government Staff for Politics AFTER Leaving Congress
Email details government staff helping DeLay explain ballot charade

Almost a week after Tom DeLay delivered a bitter and partisan farewell speech from the House floor and abandoned his 22nd District Texas House seat, he was still using government staff and equipment to craft political strategy and respond to media inquiries.

Email reveals government staff still working for DeLay

An email sent by Tom DeLay’s former Deputy Chief of Staff Dan Flynn lays out the strategy and message to deal with media inquiries regarding the Texas Democratic Party’s lawsuit challenging Republican efforts to declare DeLay ineligible and replace him on the ballot. The communication discussed using government resources to assist the DeLay campaign and the Republican Party of Texas.
