Smoking Gun Memos: DeLay fingerprints on TRMPAC

According to a copy of memos now circulating DeLay was involved in day to day decisions about Texans for a Republican Majority, something he has repeatedly denied.

These memos implicate DeLay in coordinating strategy, raising money, taking checks and approving guest lists. They show that he was kept up to date as a high priority - and that steps were taken to screen his involvement through third parties.

The first is from state representative Dianne Delisi to Boon Pickens, and is on TRM letterhead. The first memo was on targetted races for the committee:

"House Majority Whip Tom DeLay agreed to help us and has been an ardent advocate for us by raising money, making phone calls, serving as a special gest at events and providing assistance with leading strategists."

He left a trail of paper a mile wide, the arrogant bastard! Twist in the wind, ya roach!

The very idea that the man who took time away from his job as speaker of the House to fly back to Austin and twist arms to get the REDistricting passed was not deeply involved in his own pack is laughable.
