Patricia Perine Baig, a substitute teacher in District 22 who considers herself a Republican, said she's grown so embarrassed by the widening scandals that she recently took out a newspaper ad in a competing weekly urging people to attend an anti-DeLay demonstration.

***....... Ms. Baig, who signed her advertisement with her maiden name, P. A. Perine, "A Texas Republican for Ethical Reform," at a post office box in neighboring Missouri City, said she often used her maiden name and was not trying to hide. .......*** ---- In DeLay's Home District, Rumblings of Discontent Surface By Ralph Blumenthal The New York Times Sunday 17 April 2005

Thode wishes DeLay would answer his critics, he said.

http://www.majorityleader.gov/news.asp?FormMode=Detail&ID=421

WASHINGTON – House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-Texas) issued the following statement regarding House Republicans’ efforts to forge a compromise to get the House Committee on Standards of Official Conduct up and running:

“I appreciate House Republicans’ continued efforts to search for a way to get the House Committee on Standards of Official Conduct up and running. Republicans agree that the House of Representatives needs a functioning Committee on Standards of Official Conduct.

“I’ve sent letters to the committee asking to appear before the chairman and ranking member to discuss matters. And for more than a month I’ve said I hope for a fair process that will afford me the opportunity to get the facts out and set the record straight. I welcome the opportunity to address this with the committee.”

Remember to hold your fire til ya see the whites of their eyes.........! When it comes to ethics, I consider his opponents a target rich environment....

took a job mixing rat bait for a pest-control business

Tom Delay....Proudly killing Rats as a lifetime enterprise!

The above is nothing but a hit piece.

The title is a come on for Delay's supporters. Makes it sound persevering and impressive (Embattled DeLay still is making a name for himself - Unapologetic, hasn't let trouble quiet him).

That is designed to attract them and get them to read the poison inside. I'm not a Texan, but I'm betting that the San Antonio Express orchestrated this....and is probably a liberal and/or Democrat media outlet.

The majority elected republicans, DEMCRATS are outside the mainstream.

The MSM voted for Kerry and kerry lost by MILLIONS, the MSM is outside the mainstream.

They attack Delay for the same reasons they attack bolton.

The Bureacrats are trying to save their own cushy jobs. Indecision is good for the democrat party. The UN corruption is good for the democrat party.

I hope delay keeps attacking.

If Ms. Baig is voting for a Democrat to espouse ethics... she's as dumb as a rock....IMHO Either that or she's a Rat claiming to be a Pub......to get some face time.

Yes, it's a liberal slanted rag of a paper for the most part. Its only competitor, The San Antonio Light disappeared years ago. The Express is owned by one of the big Newspaper corps, but I forget which one. Probably Hearst.

I never read it. To me it's just a vehicle for the rotten city council to promote their liberal/socialist agenenda.

"...reigning in judges..."

That would be "reining" in judges.
It's perfectly understandable how someone would associate the word "reign" with Federal judges, but nonetheless I mourn the passing of literacy from our newspapers.
