Isn’t this the same spot in Texas where the fake national guard memos about Dubya originated?

I don’t remember Austin/Travis County being involved in the Rathergate stuff, but maybe.

Austin is the state capitol and also the home of the University of Texas. It is liberal politically, and long-time DA Ronnie Earle is notorious for dogged witchhunting of those who don’t agree with him politically. He even prosecuted himself once.

Earle is no longer in office, but he’s the one who got the indictment against DeLay, and it was likely more in retaliation for DeLay’s role in redistricting than for any lawbreaking. We’ll see.

On the other hand, DeLay never ran from a fight and left lots of hurt in his wake. What goes round comes round.

Just a big sordid mess. Hope the courts see that justice is done — whatever that is.
