House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-TX) Accused of Ethics Violations.

This isn't surprising at all since the exterminator turned legislator has proven to be a sorry excuse for a Congressman over the years. Rep. Chris Bell of Texas has accused DeLay of soliciting campaign donations in exchange for legislative favors. Bell is now a lame duck Congressman after losing in the Democratic primary this year. His district was redrawn when DeLay and the Texas Legislature pushed through an unnecessary redrawing of the state's Congressional districts.

Public Citizen has posted the memos from the past year relating to this brewing scandal.

Meanwhile, pay a visit to Richard Morrison's website. He's running against DeLay this year, and is putting up a good fight. With Morrison's fundraising efforts, and the above scandal, DeLay's being forced to campaign harder than he has previously for what had been considered a safe seat.
