MORE ON LETTER WRITERS -

Ex-CIA director Porter Goss, former House majority leader Tom DeLay and three other former Republican congressmen are among those who still support disgraced former U.S. House speaker J. Dennis Hastert — at least enough to write a federal judge on his behalf. **Goss is a former Republican congressman from Florida **who served as CIA director under George W. Bush. DeLay is a Texas Republican who worked alongside Hastert in the House leadership and who himself was accused in a criminal case of influencing state elections with corporate money — although his conviction was ultimately tossed. The three other former congressman writing letters on Hastert’s behalf were John T. Doolittle (R-Calif.), David Dreier (R-Calif.) and Thomas W. Ewing (R-Ill.).

a LOT of Republicans in that mix.
