PP We are talking about a grand jury indictment, by a TEXAS Grand Jury, of a man already rebuked by the house for unethical conduct.


"In September, the grand jury indicted three political operatives associated with DeLay and eight companies, alleging campaign finance violations related to corporate money spent in the 2002 legislative races. The corporate donations were made to Texans for a Republican Majority, a political action committee created with help from DeLay.

In October, the House ethics committee rebuked DeLay for appearing to link political donations to a legislative favor and improperly persuading U.S. aviation authorities to intervene in the Texas redistricting dispute."


How it relates is the pure hypocrisy of some folks who want to claim the moral high ground while doing all they can to protect the position of power held by one of their own crooks.

Strange we never needed this rule in the past 200 plus years. I can guarantee you that if this were a democrat speaker; the talking heads like Rush the drug addict, would be totally outraged.

The Democrats have the same rule the Republicans used to have. If they attempt to change it, I would be upset. Bad policy is still bad policy even if done by your party.

TK Are you saying that Kofi Annan is a Democrat? If not what the heck is your point? Care to address the topic?
