2. And how come he gets to go abroad? Iffin you or I had been indicted
and waiting trial, dollars to donuts the court would have our passports locked up so we couldn't leave the country.

KO reported some silliness Delay pulled at Oxford, England. :wtf: Can he zip over to some nation without extradition treaty with the US while he's gallivanting about?

9. From the point of view of someone who lives in Oxford,England...
and doesn't need the worst crooks of other countries here, why did our immigration authorities even let him in!

5. I have asked that at least once a month
should be write to the attorney general of Texas and ask him does he give republicans as pass.

Or maybe bush wants him to wait til just before he leaves office so he can give him a pardon and get away from the backlash.

6. Link
http://blogs.chron.com/texaspolitics/archives/2007/10/delay_trial_wil_1.html

"Tom DeLay won't be tried on money-laundering charges until an appeals court rules on two co-defendants' cases, according to Judge Pat Priest's web page."

7. I dunno and I'm also still waiting for those Abu Ghraib rape videos to be released by the Pentagon.
Isn't it amazing how slow Justice works when it's the people at the top committing the crimes?

8. We sure are stretching the Constitutional guarantee
of a speedy trial to the breaking point these days.
