take19 - TAKEN!!!

It's obviously good to be an elected member of Congress, at least judging from the travel perks enjoyed by Sue Kelly. In 2005, Kelly was the beneficiary of no less than five all-expense paid trips which were paid for by various special interest groups.

Kelly's special interest adventures included:

• An $8,855 trip to Quatar.
• A $1,638 retreat to a Scottsdale, AZ resort.
• A $1,355 trip to Chicago.
• Travel to Dallas and Philadelphia.

It's clear that the only reason these special interest groups are paying for these trips is to gain influence and it seems that the price of admission in order to gain access to Sue Kelly is providing her with an all expense paid travel itinerary. When you take the huge campaign contributions from big business and now the all expense paid travel provided by these special interest groups and combine that with her voting record, it's easy to see that Sue Kelly represents the pro-big business conservative Republican interests and not her constituents in New York's 19th Congressional District.
