His star fallen, DeLay sees his pet project fade
$500m oil-gas plan slashed
By Susan Milligan, Globe Staff | February 17, 2006
WASHINGTON -- When Tom DeLay was the most powerful man in the House of
Representatives, Congress and the president devoted $500 million over
10 years for an oil and gas project lawmakers expected to go to a firm
in DeLay's hometown.
But just a month after the embattled former House majority leader
announced he would not try to keep his leadership job, the Bush
administration cut funding for the project from its 2007 budget, and
announced in the fine print of its 1,220-page fiscal blueprint that it
would seek legislation to kill the program outright.
A Department of Energy spokesman said the decision this month merely
reflects President Bush's desire to weed out ineffective programs. But
in political circles, lawmakers and analysts saw the cut as a slap
against a man who no longer has the political muscle to hit back.
''No way" would the administration suggest eliminating the program if
Delay, the Texas Republican, were still majority leader, said Tyson
Slocum, an energy specialist at Public Citizen, a lobbying group that
opposed the project. ''He carried way too much clout. This program
clearly was identified with Tom DeLay."
Representative Ralph Hall, a fellow Texas Republican who fought for
the energy project, said he would appeal the matter to Energy
Secretary Samuel W. Bodman, but acknowledged that DeLay's troubles
gave supporters less leverage.
DeLay is under indictment, accused of laundering campaign
contributions to fund Texas legislative races. His ties to lobbyist
Jack Abramoff, who recently pleaded guilty to defrauding clients, have
also drawn scrutiny.
Facing a difficult election year, many Republicans have distanced
themselves from their former leader and from his intricate network of
supporters who were often rewarded with federal funding for pet
projects.
The energy project funds research and development into ''ultra
deepwater" drilling for oil and gas. The project, included in the
sweeping energy bill Bush signed into law last year, was heralded as a
critical step in shaping a national energy policy and making the
country less dependent on foreign oil.
While the legislation does not specify who would receive the program
money, energy specialists and Democratic critics said the language of
the bill virtually ensured it would go to the Research Partnership to
Secure Energy for America, a nonprofit consortium based in DeLay's
Sugar Land, Texas, district. Hall was the sponsor of the proposal, but
DeLay was an active and powerful promoter of it.
House Democrats were incensed last year when the research and
development project, which was not included in the printed version of
the energy bill, was inserted in the legislation overnight by four
leading negotiators on the bill.
While two Democrats knew of the addition, other Democrats complained
that they had no chance to debate the provision.
''It was snuck in at the last minute as a giveaway to the most
profitable companies in the history of the world," said Representative
Edward J. Markey, Democrat of Malden, referring to the oil companies
in the consortium.
Markey praised the Bush administration for proposing to kill the
project, but said he didn't think the administration would have done
so if DeLay were still majority leader.
Taxpayers for Common Sense, a nonpartisan budget watchdog, considered
the project ''the worst provision in the energy bill," said the
group's vice president for policy, Keith Ashdown. ''Behind the scenes,
the reason why it happened was because DeLay put his shoulder into
it."
Sticking the provision into the bill at the last moment, in part to
shield its powerful supporters from scrutiny, makes it ''the poster
child for what's wrong with Congress," Ashdown said.
DeLay's office did not respond to requests for comment, but Brian
Nick, a spokesman for the Republican Senatorial Campaign Committee,
defended DeLay as a passionate advocate for his district.
''Clearly, someone with the experience of getting things done in
Congress and who still serves on the very powerful Appropriations
Committee is very beneficial to his constituents at home," Nick said.
John Grassner, a spokesman for the Department of Energy, said the
effort to eradicate the proposal had nothing to do with DeLay, but
with the program itself.
The research and development project was to be funded by an oil and
gas leasing program the administration also wants eliminated, he said,
so the money wouldn't be there to pay for it.
He said that the oil and gas programs were ''not demonstrating clear
results," and that the administration was determined to eliminate
ineffective programs to pare the budget.
Melanie Kenderdine, spokeswoman for the energy consortium that stood
to benefit from the program, defended the funding.
''It's in the interest of consumers for there to be additional gas
supplies, because that will lower prices," she said.
Hall, the initial House sponsor, said he was ready to fight for the
project on its merits.
While DeLay has snagged a seat on the powerful Appropriations
Committee, it is unclear whether he will be able to persuade fellow
lawmakers to save the project.
The 11-term House veteran faces a Republican primary in a few weeks,
and, if he wins, might also face a well-known Democratic challenger
and a conservative-leaning Independent candidate in the general
election.
Michael Franc, a congressional specialist with the conservative
Heritage Foundation, said the new House leadership may try to salvage
the program to help DeLay beat back his challengers, fearing that
Republican control of the House could hinge on DeLay's race.
But most House members are not eager to be associated with their
former boss.
''It's kind of the law of political gravity. The velocity of your fall
increases with the recognition that your former power seems to be
ebbing," said Ross Baker, a political science professor at Rutgers
University.
''Gratitude is the most perishable commodity in Congress. 'Save
yourself first' has always been the operational code."

Great! Let's slash more "pet projects" from both sides of the aisle.
The federal government has no business financing crap like that
in the first place.

Yeah, it sounds like a shameless pork program alright. But don't
get pompous about it, Dems. When you guys were in power, you
did the same thing.
I hope Bush makes some real spending cuts for a change. His
big spending up until now has been disgraceful.

Gimme a break. BJ tried to spend like crazy in his first two years.
The only reason some restraint was put on spending was because
Dems were dumped from congress in 1994. BJ doesn't get any
credit for it, he tried to spend huge $$$ on HillaryCare, remember?

You mean like GOP's subsidy to Hooters, or the 500 million bridge to
nowhere in Alaska, or the 500,000 subsidy to draw a fish on a plane,
courtesy of the the honorable GOP senator from Alaska?

Everybody knows Bush spends far too much. But everybody also
has a good enough memory to recall that Dems were far worse,
and are *not* qualified to criticize excessive spending. It's like
Teddy Kennedy telling others that they eat and drink too much.
The table that you clipped shows the exact opposite. Pork has
increased ten-fold in the ten years since the GOP took over Congress,
and the bulk of the increase is in the past five years.
Would you like me to post the list (which comes from the libertarian
"Club for Growth") again?

The table begins at 1995. Why do you suppose it began at that
exact year? I suspect it was much higher when Dems controlled
the WH and both houses of congress. Note that it decreased in
1996, probably because Reps had just taken control of congress.
Besides, it just shows number of pork projects, not necessarily
related to total pork dollars.
Would you like me to post the list (which comes from the libertarian

Don't bother. I'm willing to admit that both parties spend far too
much on pork. Are you?

Because that was the first budget year that the GOP controlled
Congress, numnuts.

Of course you would say something like that. You'll say anything.
Why don't you get a cite on that?
Note that it decreased in
1996, probably because Reps had just taken control of congress.
And then increased ten fold after that, most of it in the past five
years. Got an explanation for that?
Besides, it just shows number of pork projects, not necessarily

Deficits are at records highs. What do you think?

I'm speculating that the number of pork dollars spent is related to
how long the controlling party has been in power. That's why I
think it was dubious how your table began in 1995, since Dems
controlled the House for 40+ years prior to that, and they controlled
the Senate too for much of that time.
Note that it decreased in
1996, probably because Reps had just taken control of congress.
And then increased ten fold after that, most of it in the past five

I already said that Reps are spending far too much. Although I
suspect that the deficit, as a function of GDP, isn't nearly as
catastrophic as you'd like us to think.
What do you think should be done about it? Besides slashing the
military, and putting it under control of the UN? Raise taxes? Be
sure to write all Democrats running for office and demand that they
vigorously demand higher taxes in all of their campaign speeches.
Please.

Guess not, since you didn't answer.
