I want that woman pilloried, drawn and quartered, run out of town on a rail - whatever can be arranged. Not because she's guilty but because she was probably the nastiest of all dim pols re Delay and the "corruption of the GOP".

She also deserves whatever she gets for being just plain STUPID. She had to know she was being investigated for the same allegations.

Just like junketgate - she was the first to demand Delay's head and then we learned that he at least had filed the proper paper work while she had taken trips on lobbyist/special interest tabs but was too dumb to file properly. From now on whenever "Miss America" accuses her political enemies of anything we can be sure it's something she's doing.

How far the house dims have fallen to exchange Gephardt for that. She makes Blank-O look like Maggie Thatcher.

This is the last place you'll ever see this article again. This will be uber-zotted by the MSM as fast as a Marxist illiterati is on a Breaking News post.

Not really a double standard. The FEC (a federal agency) has common sence and often enters into conciliation agreements to resolve contribution violations.

Bid Earle in Texas is a State DA with a vendetta.

Big difference.

Of course, Pilosi is a hypocrite!

The press will only run this story, if there is nothing else sensational enough to obscure Saddam's trial

Libs can't stand the thought that Americans might hear about Saddam's crimes.

Rather the refer the case to the Justice Department for prosecution, however, the FEC allowed Pelosi's two committees to negotiate "conciliation agreements" under which they were fined a total of $21,000.

No good deed goes unpunished.

You've missed DeLay's larger point here. If he's going down for this kind of "laundering," everybody in Congress who does it is going down--and a lot more Dems do it than Reps.

There is only one answer to this incredible waste of taxpayer dollars: Eliminate ALL "campaign finance" laws NOW.

No, you have to leave the laws prohibiting foreign campaign contributions.

Not really a double standard.

The double standard is in how the MSM treats various players, OBVIOUSLY UNFAIRLY.

Pelosi appears to have violated the same kind of arcane campaign finance regulation that spurred the indictment of House Majority Leader Tom DeLay this week.

The old saying applies....."Those who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones"!

Okay, I'll grant you that one, but it still leaves the same problem.

Foreigners can't invest in US elections.

Foreigners can give money to US individiuals.
US Individuals can give money to campaigns.

I'm not saying that foreign interests should be allowed to donate. I just don't see a way around this sort of loophole.
