Former Republican House Majority Leader DeLay Arrested, Charged In Texas

HOUSTON (Reuters) - Former U.S. House Majority leader Tom DeLay was arrested and charged with money laundering and conspiracy on Thursday after he turned himself in to a Harris County court in Houston, his lawyer Dick DeGuerin said.

DeLay, who posted a $10,000 bond and was released near midday, evaded the press corps that had gathered at a courthouse in his home district outside Houston where he was expected to appear.

He is scheduled to make his first appearance in court on Friday in Austin.

DeGuerin accused Travis County prosecutor Ronnie Earle of engaging in vindictive politics and trying to smear DeLay by having the arrest warrant issued on Wednesday.

Thats a real pretty looking subject line there.

2. The prettiest part of it is the word "former".
I hope to see "former" placed in front of a host of BushCo names soon.
