A little-known congressman from rural eastern Ohio was Tom DeLay’s enforcer, a post he got by playing footsie with the contributions to endangered Republican candidates and because he’s the chairman of the House committee that doles out parking places, offices and other perks. Now, Rep. Robert Ney, R-Ohio, looks like he might go under with the lobbyist Jack Abramoff, indicted in a fraud charge concerning the purchase of some Florida casino boats. Ney was also central in the role of getting Abramoff approval of some Texas Indian casino licenses, right in the back yard of good old Tom “The Hammer” DeLay. I’m telling you, guys, this is flying under the radar of most of America, but it IS important!
