Crooked chickens come home to roost
Crooked chickens come home to roost
Submitted by Colin on Wed, 09/28/2005 - 12:36. Bluff, Gimmick, Or Flaw?Tom the "Hammer" DeLay has been indicted by a Grand Jury in the Texas Campaign Finance Probe. Finally, the most crooked man in Washington next to Jack Abramoff (a lobbyist now under arrest for wire fraud among other things) has finally been indicted. I could dance a jig. DeLay helped re-destrict Texas in 2003 and it was such a scam to give the Republicans more power that Texan Democratic Representatives fled to Oklahoma to deny the Republicans a quorum to vote on the issue. That's not to mention ethics violations that Delay has been admonished for in the past several years. The Republican party is now reaping what they've sown with crooked deals and cronyism. Just so you don't think I'm too partisan, I'm sure there are plenty of crooked Democrats, but the Republicans are the ones that hold all the chips right now. They've been leading our country down the wrong path for too long and now their senior leadership is under siege. Maybe some real accountability and/or leadership will come from this. I really hope that man goes to jail. He is a symbol of everything wrong with American politics.

Your usage of the quotes is curious. It seems to indicate that Rep. DeLay's middle name is 'the'.
Seriously though, I'm giddy as a schoolboy with news that he's in trouble. If we can just get some momentum against Frist for his blind trust abuses. I can only imagine that the dems have somehow gotten an effective bull dog behind the scenes. Of course, I see grandiose schemes and conspiracies everywhere. I guess that all started with Snuffaluffagus... I'm hesitent to get too excited though. Not until those turd burglars are brought out of the halls of power, kicking and screaming (and showing their true alien nature).
