The following list are the top Congressional trip takers, note how far down on the list Tom Delay is. Now I am not a DeLay fan by any means, but it looks like they are all guilty to me. So Howard Dean thinks Delay should be in Jail, what about the rest of these Criminals??? Here is a thought, make these guys pay for the trips out of their own campaign coffers and not by special intrest or tax payer money then maybe some of them will actually be legit or maybe not.
