Oklahoma’s all-Republican congressional delegation is angry about a letter on Tulsa Regional Chamber of CommerceCorruption letterhead promoting a local fundraiser for Louisiana Democrat Mary Landrieu.
A letter issued Sunday and signed by all seven members of the delegation takes the chamber to task for a letter dated Aug. 12 and signed by chamber Chief Executive Officer Mike Neal.

That letter, on chamber letterhead, encourages recipients to attend a fundraiser at the home of former Mayor Kathy Taylor on Wednesday.

The fundraiser is to benefit Landrieu, who is locked in a tight re-election campaign that could decide the balance of power in the U.S. Senate.

Neal, a Louisiana native, is a long-time friend of Landrieu’s husband Frank Snellings, and was a member of the couple’s wedding party.

I don't believe for a second the letterhead was used unintentionally:

- Senate Conservatives Fund lashes out at the U.S. Chamber: The Senate Conservatives Fund is apoplectic about the rumor that the U.S. Chamber of Commerce will endorse Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-LA) in her bid for reelection. The organization, founded in 2008 by then-Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC), blasted the Chamber and the Republican establishment in an email blast on Monday. “The U.S. Chamber doesn’t care about electing Republicans. It just wants more big government politicians who will force taxpayers to pay for their corporate bailouts and corporate welfare programs,” SCF President Ken Cuccinelli writes. “The Chamber’s support for Mary Landrieu isn’t what’s so surprising. It’s the lack of any meaningful response from the GOP establishment in Washington that is downright shocking!” The conservative organization also took aim at the spending records of Landrieu and her most notable Republican opponent, Rep. Bill Cassidy (R-LA). The Senate Conservatives Fund is backing retired Col. Rob Maness.
