I sent a copy to the local newspaper as part of a letter to the editor. Everyone should do the same. The only way this corruption will be exposed is by grass roots action because the media will not report it. Even Repubs in a red state such as mine can understand "welfare" for Corporations. Unvoted upon welfare is nothing but graft by tyrants. All these Reps will face election next year.

If we take $1,500,000,000 and divide it by those 651,619 ideal citizens, each of them would get $2,301.95 dollars. Now this IS Tom DeLay we are talking about so it is more likely that his supporters get $20,000 each and the democrats get squat. Yea, that sounds about right.
