In Case You Missed It

Texans for a Republican Majority Political Action Committee and the Texas Association of Business have been indicted by a federal grand jury. District Attorney Ronnie Earle said that the two organizations worked to sidestep the election code and funnel corporate wealth into republican congressional campaigns. His laundry list of alleged offenses and ethics violations notwithstanding, House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-Texas) has not been indicted himself, though he was a founding member of TRMPAC. I will not charge that Tom DeLay is guilty of anything, but it seems a little odd that everyone with whom he's shared a handshake is being indicted . . .

One could argue that it's not just the presidency that has been held fraudulently over the past five years, but several seats in the House as well. Florida, Ohio, and now Texas. Political corruption and scandal on a nationwide scale!

Looks like it's business as usual for the Grand Ol' Party . . .
