The story in today’s Washington Post detailing how Tom DeLay’s cronies and hangers-on soaked up the cash flowing from Jack Abramoff — through, of course, one of those noxious right-wing “family values” groups — is hardly surprising. But it is interesting how well-detailed the Post’s map of the money is, and makes me wonder how truly stupid all these conservatives are these days. I mean, there is almost no laundering going on, it just flew from pocket to pocket. At least when Democrats do it, the money path seems more… diverse.
