DESCRIPTION:The Big Buy: How Tom DeLay Stole Congress  In a stunning 1994 interview, 
 Tom DeLay sat down and laid out his vision for America: to destroy the 
 Department of Education, HUD, OSHA, the NEH, the NEA, the Environmental 
 Protection Agency and the Department of Energy. His self-stated goal was to 
 "completely redesign government." The Big Buy is the story of one of the 
 most blatant power grabs in American history, and a warning about how easy 
 it is for American democracy to be hijacked by a combination of relentless 
 ambition and corporate millions.  But DeLay has made mistakes. Texas grand 
 juries have brought 41 indictments against eight corporations, DeLay's 
 political action committee, a business lobby ally, three underlings, and 
 Tom DeLay himself.  But while DeLay has given up his leadership post, his 
 Texas takeover is still impacting all Americans daily.  From now until the 
 November elections, The Big Buy is destined to serve as a rallying cry for 
 those who want to change "the house that Tom built" back into "the people's 
 house."    $7 to $15 suggested donation.  Sponsored by Peninsula Peace and
