Don't prosecutors do this before they get indictments?

The depostism of the left makes Sen. Joseph McCarthy look like an amateur.
And schools and the media will never address this shameful period in American politics.

But the dumb-asses who watch the nightly news will fall right in line.
"Ooh, Delay MUST have done something wrong, now they're investigating his home phone records."
It's stunning how ill-informed people are. They have no idea how our justice system works and they have no idea how our government works. They assume Delay must be guilty of something becuase they don't realize the agenda of the prosecutor and they think Bush failed Katrina victims because they assume the federal government is supposed to take care of everything.
To: Dog Gone
This is extremely illegal. Earle should spend the next 20 years in prison for this.
To: Dog Gone
These phone records will prove, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that Tom DeLay spoke on the phone with people who ran the PAC which he was a board member of.
That is simply, damning, damning stuff.
The prosecution will also be able to demonstrate that Tom DeLay bought and consumed a Pepsi on the exact same day that Pepsi made a donation to the Texas GOP.

Why not also check his library card, and any X-rated videos he may have rented...grab the computer as well, perhaps DeLay surfed his way to FR?
Ole Ronnie is indeed getting desperate - so what would his phone records really prove one way or the other ?-
Last time I checked it was legal for DeLay to speak to anyone he so chose - regardless of their position or profession

If all that you say turns true then that's it I will no longer support Delay, Bush the GOP, or conservatives. Yes I think I'm thru with them all.
Bush didn't consult me before selecting Harriet Miers or John Roberts and now you say Delay may have drunk a Pepsi, well I'm a committed Coke Cola guy.
Yup, I see no other choice but to throw my support behind Hillary in '08.

It begins to look like we're going to have to witness a politician's visit to the proctologist.

Uh, this seems like a rational next step after you have secured an indictment. Phone records are not protected information, and are useful in collaberating other evidence of communications which are important in cases like this.
I'm guessing Earle needed the indictment to provide a judge with probably cause for the phone records.
I do agree that Earle has violated his office. This just doesn't seem like an issue to me.
I hope DeLay can subpoena his records as part of the suit which claimed Earle was working with the Democrats on this indictment.
To: Tarpon

Usually, yes. Unless a cooperating witness recently revealed something in particular that led the prosecutors here to the phone records.

I don't think there is anything illegal about it. I think it does show that Earle obtained the indictment, and now he's trying to find some evidence to support it. However, that's not the way it is supposed to work.
