You know what really ticks me off! Hillary was involved in campaign fraud, and someone else took the fall. No one went after that piece of trash witch and the media covered for her as usual. I am so darn sick of these people!!

"The Democratic Party is committed to the view that there is no such thing as going too far. To date, they've done reasonably well with that approach. But they may be pushing their luck this tiime; God help them if the press ever stops covering for them."

You'd think that the Democrats would be wary of this tactic since so many would be vulnerable to lawsuits concerning campaign law violations. How much scruntiny would, say ,someone like Nancy Pelosi be able to stand up to, I wonder.

The GOP is falling apart. Hillary is going to walk into the White House.

Don't fret....This is the best time for all of this to happen, a year before a midterm election. This gives us time to respond to the Delay witchunt, cut spending, get Bush's numbers up, etc.

Every party and President have their down points. It's just when it happens that is important. Bush's are comming at the right time and so is Delay's. Bush 41's came at the wrong time.

The Pubs have plenty of time to get the Elephant to it's feet and roast a donkey for dinner.

The blind trust wasn't completely blind -- he knew the stock was in there.

And he ordered it sold. The trust simply picked what day or days to do so.

It was a strange way to set up a trust, and my opinion is that, in preparation for a 2008 race, he was trying to clean it up but "unfortunately" got lucky and sold before bad news.

Did anyone see this from NewsMax?

 

Targeting Tom DeLay: The Real Story

Breaking from NewsMax.com

The news that Tom DeLay has been indicted is not news to NewsMax Magazine readers.

Just months ago we published a special report, "Targeting Tom DeLay," detailing how the major media and the Democratic Party have launched an all-out assault on the House Majority Leader. We exposed who is really behind the effort to stop DeLay.

NewsMax Magazine's special report "Targeting Tom DeLay" reveals the truth about the attack on DeLay – and the implications for the future of politics in Washington.

This "Targeting Tom DeLay" edition of NewsMax Magazine is available with our FREEEE offer by Going Here Now.


In this blockbuster report NewsMax reveals:

  • How a secret tape helped spur the effort to get DeLay.
  • Why a noted media analyst calls the anti-DeLay frenzy a "media jihad."
  • The "dirty little secret" no one in Congress wants to talk about.
  • Washington insider Paul Weyrich reveals the two real reasons for the attacks on DeLay – reasons you'll never hear in the media.
  • The sordid story of the most prominent member of the Democratic Party and why he is "in a class by himself" when it comes to conflicts of interest.
  • How Democrats tried to use a fake police mug shot of DeLay.
  • The inside story on how the Democrats are replaying their strategy against Newt Gingrich and what he has to say about it.
  • The untold story behind former exterminator DeLay's entry into politics and why he has risen so quickly to become among the most powerful people in America.
  • The shadowy "syndicate" funded by billionaire George Soros – determined to destroy DeLay and lay the groundwork for a Democratic victory in 2008.
  • The real Tom DeLay – up close and personal – you'll never see on "60 Minutes."
  • The dramatic moment when DeLay rededicated himself to Christ.
  • Why insiders say the majority leader will never be indicted.
  • How the L.A. Times smeared DeLay over his father's death.
  • Why the attack on DeLay has been termed "spiritual warfare."
  • And much, much more.

Remember, this story was first published months ago. So often NewsMax Magazine beats the rest of the media to the real story. This explosive report blows the lid off the attack on Tom DeLay, which you need to read about now as the controversy reverberates through American politics.

<< I heard on the news that Tom Delay said he would TEMPORARILY step aside [as Majority Leader]. <<

So the Tancredo haters probably think TX's 22nd district swore in a replacement Congressman already. ::snicker::

Just heard on FOX that Dick DeGuerin will be representing Delay. That's the best news I've heard all day. DD is absolutely the best that money can buy. He took over Percy Foreman's practice years ago. Ol' Earl don't stand a chance. ;)

He was on Larry King last night on behalf of Delay. Larry asked him if there was any chance Tom would somehow plea bargain the thing down and make some kind of deal. DeGuerin said, "Hell, no!" Larry almost swallowed his teeth.
