WASHINGTON --A Texas grand jury on Wednesday charged Rep. Tom DeLay and two political associates with conspiracy in a campaign finance scheme, forcing the House majority leader to temporarily relinquish his post.

DeLay was accused of a criminal conspiracy along with two associates, John Colyandro, former executive director of a Texas political action committee formed by DeLay, and Jim Ellis, who heads DeLay's national political committee.

"I have notified the speaker that I will temporarily step aside from my position as majority leader pursuant to rules of the House Republican Conference and the actions of the Travis County district attorney today," DeLay said.

The White House, meanwhile, called DeLay a "good ally," and said President Bush still considered DeLay a friend and effective leader in Congress.

to the republican leadership. Earlier on MSNBC, a person noted that the season of indictments appears to be just beginning. They mentioned Frist and the Plame case.

Tighten your seat belts, Bush administration. Your ride is just starting.

4. "Das ist sehr schade," as my HS German teacher used to say.

"Das tut mir aber Leid"

Translation: "That is very sad. That does me such pain."

Of course she said that dripping with sarcasm when somebody gave a heartrending excuse for not doing the homework.
