Even Utah thinks this is a scandal
The Salt Lake Tibune has taken notice of the 'little' phone jamming scandal in New Hampshire. And they get the details right, down to Little Miss Mehlmans involvment.
Tom DeLay isn't involved in every Republican scandal, although it's easy to see how you could get that idea.This is another juicy GOP scandal. It has some major players in Jack, Tom and Miss Kenny. And it should blossom nicely over the next six months. Don't forget to tell your friends.
As Democrats prowl through evidence in a growing phone-jamming scandal in New Hampshire, what should pop up but DeLay's Americans for a Republican Majority political action committee.
Just as Republican operatives in 2002 were shelling out about $15,000 to attempt to tie up Election Day phone lines at some Democratic get-out-the-vote call centers in the Granite State, three groups - let's call them "Friends of Jack Abramoff" - were ponying up $5,000 each to the New Hampshire Republican State Committee.
In addition to DeLay's ARM, the generous givers were two casino-fueled tribes, California's Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians and the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians. (The tribal contributions were first reported in The Union Leader, a New Hampshire newspaper, and the ARM contribution was added in a New York Times piece.)
Were the contributions happenstance? That's certainly possible.
