Doolittle Should Be More Than Merely Criticized

This, my friends, is Tom DeLayism at its best (remember Tom's trailer tramp wife received a huge 6 figure a year income from Abramoff and Company for "researching" what Congressmen's wives liked):

In the past two years, campaign and political action committees controlled by Rep. John T. Doolittle (R-Calif.) paid ever-larger commissions to his wife's one-person company and spent tens of thousands of dollars on gifts at stores such as Saks Fifth Avenue and Tiffany & Co. and a Ritz-Carlton day spa.

The use of such committees, especially "leadership" PACs, for purposes other than electing politicians to Congress is a common and growing phenomenon, but campaign finance watchdogs say Doolittle has taken it to new heights.
