Howdy Townhall Readers,

If you couldn’t already tell, I’ve been on a vacation/fact-finding trip up to the northern part of our beautiful country and unable to post. Sorry for that, but there will be more to come as my good friends Ken Blackwell and Bob Beauprez join their CCM activists in Denver to combat the liberals – even those too liberal to blend in - and as I head to St. Paul for the Republican convention. In the meantime, I hope you all enjoy the Olympics…and the conventions.

Keep the Faith,
Tom DeLay

Enjoy...

This is one of the few times since I’ve resigned from Congress that I actually truly miss it. As you all have heard, House Republicans decided to forego the August District Work Period to stay in D.C. and work on an energy bill that will actually lower gas prices and protect our economy. While the Democrat leadership turned off the lights and went home, House Republicans flew back to D.C. to continue work on the energy crisis. There are no C-SPAN cameras rolling, but Members of Congress are still talking. This is truly historic and exciting and all activists should feel very encouraged by this display of unity among Republicans.
