Court issues warrant for DeLay, sets bail:

AP By William L. Watts

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) -- A Texas court on Wednesday issued an arrest warrant for former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, R-Texas, and set his bail at $10,000 in a routine step before his first court appearance on conspiracy and state money laundering charges, the Associated Press reported. The issuance of the warrant is "a matter of routine and bond will be posted," DeLay attorney Dick DeGuerin told the A.P. The lawyer said DeLay would make his first court appearance Friday morning. DeLay, who remains a member of Congress, relinquished his leadership post last month after being indicted on a charge of conspiring to violate state campaign finance laws. DeLay contends the charges are politically motivated and that he will be vindicated at trial.

Why would it be expidited? The prosecutor is a democrat political hack and the judge is a supporter of moveon.org.

The DUmmies have having orgasms (and creating a potential DUmmie FUnnies source, especially if this warrant gets voided before they get their mug shot).

I sincerely hope DeLay is mounting a huge offense against this rat prosecutor. This guy belongs "under" the jail. In the future there is only one way these guys will stop this nonsense and that if they have a penalty to pay. DeLay needs to sue this guys ass off. This is a true outrage.

Thanks for posting those links. Hope folks will take the time to explore and see what sort of a railroad and frame job this really is.

It perverts justice for a prosecutor to offer a misdemeanor plea and then indict on a "felony" in order to circumvent the Constitution's prohibition of arrest/harassment of Congressmen

I agree

And against the so-called "judge", also.

Re his mugshot: I think he should be smiling and showing the purple-fingered V.

BTW, I would appreciate any one with the judge's name and actual donation list to post here. I saw the list on another thread a few days ago.



What about those 12 who sat on the Grand Jury and agreed to the issuance of an indictment....... Otherwise there would be no Judge following the established procedures.

This travesty is a moonbat coup. If the Texas Constitution allows it, Governor Perry should issue a full pardon for Delay now. He should then have Earle arrested for abusing his office.
