Herewith a few truths about Tom DeLay, the embattled GOP Majority Leader in The House of Representatives.
1.) Tom DeLay is morally probably the highest level public servant I have ever met. With virtually no political gain to be had from so doing, he has been the most enthusiastic supporter of Israel in the U.S. Congress. He has stood with Israel against terrorism and international anti-Semitism without reservation or fear. This is a man with more moral decency in his little finger than his detractors have in their whole bodies.
2.) The attack against him in the Texas courts are an outrageous -- but sadly emblematic -- Democrat attempt to use the judicial system to defeat the electoral process. The DA who is tormenting him is the same one who made up an indictment of Kay Bailey Hutchison out of whole cloth to try to reverse the results of a solid electoral victory by the Republican party in Texas.
If this kind of deviltry works, we can expect local Democrat district attorneys to routinely indict any Republican who is successfully turning out the electorate for the Republican Party. No elected official, no bureaucrat, is more unaccountable than an out of control, hatchet job prosecutor, and this is just what we are seeing at work against Tom DeLay.
3.) The very fact that the Mainstream Media are so desperately struggling to smear Tom DeLay is proof positive of what a good job he is doing at leveling the electoral playing field.
4.) If we throw him to the wolves, we are betraying a dear friend of the party, and a good man -- and allowing a vicious dirty trick through the judicial system to subvert the Constitution.
5.) Tom DeLay's comments about a judiciary that sanctioned the torture murder of Terri Schiavo and how it has to be brought to account was a brave and entirely sensible approach to an issue that dismays and frightens many Americans. His comments are yet another sign of what a fine patriot this man is.
6.) He has been there for us, and we need to be there for him.

Bump for later
When the pro death crowd accuses Delay of "ethicical lapses" it means the lunatics are running the asylum.
bttt
Who do you want to believe?
Ben Stein or those small minded, power craving, slime ball Democrat low lifes....
Semper Fi
Tom is a great American. Conservatives who desert him are no conservatives at all.
My understanding of the indictment against was laughed out of court
The Dems are pinning their hope on an indictment
Because an indictment is the only way they can get Delay out as the House Majority Speaker
I could not agree more with Ben's statements!!
There are no ethical violations - as the media continues to harp about. The ethical charges that were brought .. were all churned up by democrats - funded by George Soros.
We must all stand up and support Tom. If your local papers are making comments about Tom - please email them and show your support for Tom.
WE SIMPLY CANNOT ALLOW THE DEMOCRATS TO DRIVE OUR LEADERS OUT OF OFFICE - NEVER - EVER - AGAIN.
BUMP!
It won't work.
I have a feeling that Tom is laughing at the dying socialist "mainstream" newsrooms just as hard as we are.
This needs to be sent to a lot of DeLay bashers here on FR. I can at least understand the RATs and their media lapdogs attacking DeLay, but when some of the weaklings here start whining about how we should stab DeLay in the back, I want to smack them hard.
No they can't. The repubs saw it coming and changed the House rules - a LEADER who is under indictment DOES NOT HAVE TO STEP DOWN UNLESS HE'S PROVEN GUILTY.
The dems are fit to be tied over it - and are whining that they are going to get that changed back.
It reminds me of a bunch of little kids trying to get even. [well if you get to change the senate rule then we get to change the House rule - ya know - that type of attitude] I don't think the dems will ever grow up.
Oh .. was that the hissy fit they were yapping about?
I didn't realize that ... Thanks for the update!
I saw tonight that O'Reilly had a poll showing people thought it was bad to be hiring your family and paying them with campaign funds. I think it was 60% thought it was bad and 40% thought it was good.
I suspect the DU'ers got to the poll. I sent O'Reilly an email and ask him how come it was bad for DeLay .. but if people were ask if it was bad for Boxer or Kerry (both of whom hire their family members too), would the poll be different ..??
100% truth from Mr. Stein.
Yeah, I think that was the "hissy fit" for today .. LOL!
I called DeLays office Friday and told them he had my support. I think the DUmmies are frying his phone lines as the man who answered seemed really pleased I called.
Well put Dr. Stein!
