Ethics DeLay is Ethics denied…

The good old House Ethics Committee issued a “stern rebuke” to the House Majority Leader and enemy of the Constitution Tom DeLay, over charges involving, among other things, using the FAA to attempt to track a private plane carrying Texas state senators out of the state to avoid a legislative quorum for Tom DeLay’s Congressional gerrymandering scheme, and for soliciting money for that scheme under some kind of improper pretense. Other “more serious” charges involving, oh, bribery and solicitation of bribes were… “tabled”. This was deLay’s second “rebuke” in a week, and his third overall. I understand he places these things on his fireplace mantle, next to his award as Sugar Land (TX) “Exterminator of the Year”.
Many (mostly pussy Democrats, of course) are calling upon the de facto head of Congressional Republicans to resign his leadership post. DeLay’s brash and no-prisoners style is credited with having helped elevate the GOP into control of the House in 1994, control which they have abused ever since. Does anyone seriously doubt that if the GOP retains the House, and John Kerry ascends to the Presidency, that deLay will see to it that Kerry is harassed for the next four years, and more than likely, impeached? Democrats are fools (as usual): all the buzz and oxygen is going into Kerry and Edwards– while the party is just twelve seats away in the House, it seems most unlikely the Dems will close that gap, leaving the cancer that is Tom DeLay free to fester and metastasize in the Majority, and plague any Democratic President.
Just sayin’…
Anyway, as to the Ethics Committee… Fools… (BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!) Tom DeLay is above the law! Political opponents check in, but they don’t check out!
