It will eventually come out, I think, that Earle got a loyal rat judge to empanel a grand jury of reliable rat jurors to issue an emergency indictment of DeLay to repair the damage to the lousy one he got last week.

We'll see. The problem is that the Texas Constitution makes the state enforcement powers very weak in comparison to other states. The real power lies at the county level.

When we need a bust of corrupt county officials, we need a federal angle so that the FBI can be brought in. The state simply isn't permitted to do it.

Don't think for a moment that Tom DeLay doesn't know this.

Wow Dog Gone, you sure know more about this stuff than I do. I'm just speaking from recent jury duty experience. I sure hope this comes back to bite Earle on the keester. I for one would be willing to do a Freep at the courthouse aimed at Earle. I hope your right about the eventuall outage of ratscapades regarding this.

I was just about to ask if Texas Attorney General Abbott could launch an investigation in Earle, but I guess not.
