What else is there to the story? Was he using some of the money to feed orphans and puppies or something?
Granted, he hasn't been convicted yet, but it's a pretty clear cut case. | 1. He ALLEGEDLY did this.
2. He was forced to resign as House Majority leader so that the Republicans could "move on". Again, this is NOT a sign of "guilty". It was politically expedient. | Yeah. The #2 issue was hilarious.
The republicans adopted a rule which said he had to resign, and then he ignored THAT RULE ALSO for a while...
Intelligent people can see the trend there... Quote: |

At least that's what it WAS until the whining liberals decided that "rumor=fact". | Your absolute refusal to accurately relay a situation is amazing.
1) We are saying we THINK he is guilty. Giving our opinions.
NOBODY here is saying that he should go to jail without a trial. NOBODY is entering their opinion in as evidence.
2) "rumor"????
Again, you try to ignore the EVIDENCE (not rumor) against DeLay and diminish the EVIDENCE which demonstrates his guilt. |
