Fellow Texans,Henry Bonilla has two million dollars and is raising more in his re-election campaign war chest. It should come as no surprise that Henry has built this war chest with the same money from donors who are creating a crisis in America.

Make no mistake that in America we are in a “Crisis of Corruption.” It is a crisis that pervades our legislative process at it’s very underlying essence and makes those words “of the people, by the people, and for the people,” empty and meaningless.

The huge donations from Tom Delay to Henry Bonilla are well documented. Mr. Bonilla used both his campaign war chest money and his Political Action Committee to come to the aid of his mentor and benefactor Tom Delay.

What is the ultimate reprehensible moral travesty is that even after his major benefactor was indicted, Henry Bonilla voted to keep his benefactor and sponsor, Tom Delay, as his leader of the Republican Party.

Furthermore, it should come as no surprise that Henry Bonilla voted with Tom Delay 97% of the time. It should not surprise you that the most sinister purveyor of greed and political corruption in America, Jack Abramoff, is also a major benefactor and contributor to Mr. Bonilla’s War Chest.

His has given thousands of dollars to the Henry Bonilla campaign war chest so that Mr. Bonilla can buy his way to re-election.

Could it be because Henry Bonilla, like Duke Cunningham, are members of the “Defense Appropriations Committee” and the un-indicted co-conspirators are “Defense Contractors.” I certainly hope that is not the case.

Why does a congressman want two million dollars in his war chest? Could it be that money buys elections? We want an election that does not permit the pandering, corrupt lobbyists to walk into the halls of our House of Representatives to spawn and germinate the corruption that now threatens to bring down a nation that has for years fought to be a nation of truth, of compassion, of freedom and of democracy.
