Tom Delay might be indighted by Grand Jury
This just announced by Bob Novak that Delay could be indighted by a grand jury in Texas in connection with redistricting and money may have changed hands.

Of course Novak is blaming everything on a Dem. attorney in Texas who is corrupt, but it could cause Delay to step down from Pub leadership....at least until this mess is over.

3. Dem. attorney in Texas who is corrupt ??????????
Poor honest Tommy is being picked on by a corrupt Democrat? Novak must have got a good pest control job done for free for that one.

4. When?
This rumor has been around for at least a month now.

I'm waiting on:
Limbaugh indictment
Delay Indictment
and a Plame affair indictment.

I wish this stuff would start happening already.

5. I hope it happens. But if he is indicted, will he be pulling the strings
behind a curtain any way? Who would be replacing him in the leadership.

8. It's just one more dirty thing being aired about the Pubs!
I hope all this continues all summer long! There really are a lot of Pubs who genuinely believe these are the good guys. If enough dirt falls on them, they'll be abandoned.

12. When Bob "NoFacts" says something it invariably turns out to be false
So I am not going to get my panties in a wad over this until a more reliable source reports it or it actually happens. Sorry, but I only have a limited amount of panty wad capability per election cycle.

17. When I first read your post........
I thought it read: Tom Delay delighted with Grand jury. So, I thought he wiggled out of something again! HA!!

18. Novack should be indicted too
but in the meantime I wish he'd start in on a big, double-decker STFU sandwich.

22. I've been waiting sooooo long
for this to happen, or well anything really that might cause him to step down. Delay is imho the abosolute worst of the repubican party, an uneducated bomb thrower wanna be frat boy.

24. This rumour has been out for some time
Delay may have to resign as House Majority leader until he is tried. The violation is evidently fairly clear cut.

Ronnie Earl has done a great job in Travis county and this could be the end of DeLay's career.

26. Oh, it would make me so happy
to see that piece of garbage indicted. It would make a lot of us happy, that's for sure. He's gotten away with so much sleaze for so long, it's time he paid a price for his corruption.

27. When you wish upon a star / anything your heart desires will come to you
(Writer: Leigh Harline; Lyrics: Ned Washington)

When you wish upon a star, makes no difference who you are
Anything your heart desires will come to you

If your heart is in your dreams, no request is too extreme
When you wish upon a star as dreamers do

(Fate is kind, she brings to those who love
The sweet fulfillment of their secret longing)

Like a bolt out of the blue, fate steps in and sees you thru
When you wish upon a star, your dreams come true
