So the R.s
are probably changing their rules to make sure that if DeLay gets indicted, he gets to keep his Majority Leadership position.
Party of law and order, right? Party that doesn't like criminals, correct? They were going to bring back ethics to government.
Ya'll really want to be led by this guy? By my count, there are four separate scandals that the man is intertwined with (Weststar, TRMPAC, Medicare-bill arm twisting, and Indian lobbying (
hearings resume today in the Senate on that one)). Why the hell do you want to keep him as your leader in the House? Yes, yes, I realize that there isn't a corporation left that somehow isn't in his pocket, and he's probably the most blindly loyal Republican ever, but fuck. He's a sleezy slimebag that shouldn't be given further protection if a Grand Jury in Travis County (or any other place for that matter) decides that there's enough evidence out there to indict him.
He's a fucking cockroach (Gatti, I'll up the retainer...). It's hard enough to kill them. Why the fuck does he need armor?
