American Airlines statement on the DeLay fund contribution is hysterical

At American Airlines, which gave $5,000 in late 2002, spokesman Tim Wagner said that "we were told that Mr. DeLay, a member of Congress from our headquarters state of Texas, was facing substantial legal bills that he was unable to pay personally because of their size and his limited resources." He added that American made no further donations.



Limited Resources?

Only yesterday we learned that
his wife and daughter have been paid over $500,000.00 dollars in the last few years by his PAC and campaign committees.

Just fess up American. You were asked to contribute, and not wanting to risk having a bought and paid for politician getting upset, you 'contributed'. I hope you got the return for your investment you were expecting.
