8. Watch it; the ratings go to TDS, not Reed, ultimately. Also...
Reed is all about "stealth;" he has some really creepy quotes to that effect (something about being a guerilla fighter I think). The more the horrible little Religous Reich Pod Person is exposed to the light of day, the better, I feel.

7. I hope on brings up Texas Indian Casinos
Reed has been implicated in a fraud scheme with some lobbyists. They were getting paid to lobby congress to prevent an indian casino from opening. After succeeding. they got money from the tribe to get congress to allow the casino to open. There is also a tie-in with Tom Delay.

Tiguas outraged that D.C. insiders worked both sides of casino's closure

Gary Scharrer
El Paso Times

Tigua leaders and tribal members are angry at revelations this weekend that two associates of House Majority Leader Tom DeLay took $4.2 million from them to help reopen Speaking Rock Casino after working behind the scenes to shut down the tribe's economic lifeline.

Washington lobbyist Jack Abramoff and political consultant Michael Scanlon were not able to convince Congress to pass laws that could have allowed Speaking Rock to reopen -- and it is unclear how they used the $4.2 million.

Their relationship with the Tiguas, outlined in a front-page story in Sunday's Washington Post, is part of broader investigations by a Senate committee and federal law enforcement.

...
The Washington pair paid Reed and his consulting company as much as $4 million to organize a coalition to block several tribal casinos in the South, the Post reported. Abramoff and Scanlon at the time were representing tribes in Louisiana and Mississippi that were attempting to block competing tribal casinos in Texas, Louisiana and Alabama, the newspaper said.
