Man that is a lame title; anyways, as I am sure and hope you are already aware, Tom "The Hammer" Delay has been indicted for the second time is as many weeks. This time it is for money-laundering in 2002 in a Texas election. Delay was forced to release another statement:
"[Travis County District Attorney Ronnie Earle] is trying to pull the legal equivalent of a 'do-over' since he knows very well that the charges he brought against me last week are totally manufactured and illegitimate. This is an abomination of justice."
The money-laundering felony charge is a serious one, punishment can be up to life in federal prison. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi released her statement which has been echoed since mid week:
"Yet another example that Republicans in Congress are plagued by a culture of corruption and cronyism at the expense of the American people."
