His Family Must Be So Proud.

Not just anybody gets to be GOP Crony of the week. Simple math will tell you that not everybody will get a turn, so for Chocola to be so honored... well he really must have worked hard to earn it. How hard? Well let's take a look at his accomplishments:

He voted against bonuses for Afghanistan and Iraq veterans (HR 3289)
He voted to cut student aid (S 1932)
He's voted with indicted former Congressman Tom DeLay 94% of the time. Including the time to ease House ethics rules to excuse some of DeLay's indiscretions.

Speaking of Tom DeLay:
He's taken $40,000 from DeLay's PAC
He's taken $6,000 from convicted former Congressman Randy Cunningham.
He's taken $8,000 from Congressman Bob Ney who has been implicated in the Abramoff scandal

So you have to ask yourself how well has Chris Chocola really represented his district? And considering he doesn't actually live in his district, does he care? Are these really the values of Cass County? Of Indiana? I hope not.
