Jack in the House explains how Jack Abramoff bought Congress and fills you in on his closest allies, including Tom DeLay, Ralph Reed, Grover Norquist and other lovable characters.

The DCCC's new site, Tom Delay's House of Scandal gives similar treatment to Delay and his cronies. James Carville announced the site in an email from the DCCC:

Last week, I wrote to you about the down and dirty doings of Republican boss Tom DeLay, and you might remember good old Tom telling us to "bring it on." Well, thanks to the DCCC – we are going to be able to meet Tom's demands, and I just couldn't resist dropping Tom a little note…

Dear Tom,

Recently I heard you tell all Americans concerned about having an ethically challenged man leading the Congress to “bring it on.” I've also heard you and your allies crowing about how any real Republican will come and stand by your corrupt side in your time of need.

Well, Tom, I'm here to tell you that at your request, we are indeed “bringing it on.” As for forcing “real Republicans” to rally to your side, I have to ask: How much more to do you want?

Your precious little rubberstamps in Congress have already gutted the ethics rules, forced out the Chairman of the Ethics Committee, and purged two other GOP Members of the committee, all to protect you. They've voted as you've told them more than 90% of the time, taken your dirty money, and helped bring your legal defense fund to over $1,000,000.

Can't remember who did what, too many to keep track of? Not to worry. You can find all the details on how each of them has done your bidding, courtesy of the DCCC, at the new website, Tom DeLay's House of Scandal:

I won't go into the particulars - I'll leave that to the website - but it must be said that this is no idle hanky panky, this is nothing short of the Republicans treating tax dollars like found money to trade off with your special interests buddies, all at the expense of hard working Americans. Gas prices are through the roof, heath care prices continue to skyrockets, and you're still too busy cozying up with your guys in the oil and pharmaceutical industries to care about middle class families.

And you couldn't have done a lick of it without a Republican Congress rubberstamping every single thing you throw at them! They've been eagerly scampering to vote as you see fit for years … all in exchange for a ride on the DeLay fundraising train.

I invite you and every American taxpayer to go to this site now. Go find out what each of Tom DeLay's Republican rubberstamps have been up to, what he's been giving them in return, and witness the travesty that is Tom DeLay's House of Scandal. Then Americans can decide if this Congress is serving their interests – or those of your big corporate funders.
