GOP corruption additions?
Howdy!

Me and another DUers, OKThatsIt are working on the "mother" of all collections of GOP corruption, crime and creepiness. This "scorecard" list is also appearing on the Randi Rhodes Show website, and we're updating it once a week. Here's the link to the post thread "State by State GOP Scandal Scorecard" which is in greatest/general discussion.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=2180559&mesg_id=2180559

Anyhoo--the list is growing and growing, but we want to be thorough, so we're inviting fellow DUers to review and post links to stories about their state's GOP creeps on this thread.

Thx.

1. Nussle (1st district, Iowa) took money from DeLay
Edited on Wed Oct-26-05 06:00 PM by Bluzmann57
Around $15,000 I believe. Now he's running for Governor. There's a link around here somewhere and I'll post it if I find it.
The link. www.pcactionfund.org

2. Steve King received money from DeLay's PAC.
King and DeLay are joined at the hip anyway...

Not to mention all the shit King's said. A short list includes, "(Abu Ghraib was) little more than hazing," "We have to stand up and say no to this thing we call diversity," and "There are only things we can do about (Muslims): either convert them to Christianity or kill them."

3. Don't forget Terry Nelson
Who now works for Bill Dix (IA-1st candidate) and Jeff Lamberti (IA-3rd candidate). Neither candidate would get rid of Nelson after it being revealed that he was the one who accepted the $190,000 from Delay's PAC (he was head of the RNC at the time).
