Young: Just an honest bag man

Young: Just an honest bag man: "'Good government' can be had for a price – an awful price

The headline in the Dallas paper was, “Firm gave to access DeLay.”

I read it once, then twice.

Diagramming: That's “access” as verb, “DeLay” as object.

I don't know what it does for you. For some reason it reminded me of a scene in The Last Picture Show: On a slow night – aren't they all in Anarene, Texas – the boys pool gas money to buy slow-witted Billy some backseat time with Jimmie Sue, the part-time prostitute.

OK, that's the movies. In the case that made the newspapers, it was Kansas energy firm Westar paying $25,000 to “access” Tom DeLay."
