DeLay Writes Letters: It’s “Absolutely Untrue” That Abramoff Was “A Close Friend”
Handwritten letter from DeLay to his constituents, 2/6/06:



Where would anyone get the crazy idea that DeLay was close friends with Abramoff?

DeLay, Northern Mariana Islands, 1997:

When one of my closest and dearest friends, Jack Abramoff, your most able representative in Washington, D.C., invited me to the islands, I wanted to see firsthand the free-market success and the progress and reform you have made.

DeLay’s campaign to rehabilitate his credibility isn’t off to a good start.

1. Hell, I always jet off to Scotland to golf at St. Andrews with assholes I

barely know....don't you?? I mean, doesn't EVERYONE???

It's pretty funny, though--the stupid sumbitch either is desperate, or he doesn't remember what he said! Either way, he's stuck his stinky foot in it yet again!

2. Yes, Jack and I were not close friends...

...we had a few one night stands....can I help it if Jack thought we had something more?

PS--DeLay writes like a girl!!!
