1. Yes indeed and a convicted felon can never vote

or own a gun. Not to mention jail time.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

17. Makes me almost orgasmic, that thought...

*sighs with happiness*

[crispini]

26. Not never.

They just have to serve their debt to society and then they can vote again. At least in Texas, that's how it works.

[livetohike]

30. Thanks!

:-)

[crispini]

31. Mr. Delay, are you "off the paper?"

(Slang for "no longer on probation.")

Great! Then I can register you to vote! :rofl:

[xchrom]

2. the cockles of my heart

are all tingly!:woohoo:

[nonconformist]

3. That was... orgasmic. nt

5. lol....

4. priceless.....

6. Love the mention of SEARS - Puts a new light on Laura's TV show trip

Not a major amount, but still - Sears = Repub = Pals = Corrupt. So that's where Laura asks to go, of course. (or should we say - has to go, probably Rove set it up).

[Theres-a]

9. Rove is all over this,IMO

She'd rather go shopping with Condi and the other desperate housewives,I'm sure!

[cyberpj]

12. Absolutely. As if Laura would call ABC saying I want to be on your show.

Also - I heard today the actual show won't be ON until November. Won't that be interesting depending on what happens to Bush between now and then...

7. I'm going out for a pint of Ben & Jerry's and a bottle of champagne

And when I get home, I'll get silly drunk reading this. Be still my beating heart!

8. YES!!!!!

[Sabriel]

10. How sweet it is!

I can't wait until I hear Leno/Letterman jokes about HIM in prison.

[TahitiNut]

11. Well, the indictment is flawed on its face.

It claims DeLay acted "intelligently" ... which, of course, is biologically impossible for the cockroach. :silly:

[charlyvi]

13. Another sight I hope to see very soon.....

[derby378]

14. And where did most of the money come from?

A collection agency. Figures.

So the next time a bill collector calls you, tell him to go to Hell. He voted for the Repukes that made this happen.

[txaslftist]

15. Interesting. Delay waived his statute of limitations defense ...

...

He was not indicted out of the blue, then. His attorneys were aware of the pending indictment, and participated in its preparation.

Why would he waive the statute of limitations on a state jail felony charge? It says he waived it with the advice of counsel.

I'm a defense attorney, Federal, and have been a state defense attorney. The only reason I would advise a client to waive a statute of limitations objection to a felony is if it were in exchange for a reduced charge.

In other words, Ronnie Earle must have told Delay's attorneys that if he didn't agree to waive the statute of limitations for a state jail felony, he would be charged with something more serious, some sort of charge with a longer statute of limitations.

Hell, this case may already be headed for a plea bargain.

16. A thing of beauty is a joy forever.

Sigh :7

[MazeRat7]

18. Better yet he drew the 331st, the court of the infamous "Judge Perkins"

Perkins is a real by-the-book, rule of law, hand down the punishment kind of guy.

Believe me... that is the last court in Travis Co. you want to draw...
He has a major rep down here.

*tee hee....

19. I almost feel bad that I am so happy about this. Almost. Nah, not at

all. Couldn't happen to a more deserving chicken hawk.

20. Ya know ,some days, life really IS good.

21. Thank you sabra! How do you do it?

You find all sorts of important stuff. You must be a professional researcher.

[nonconformist]

22. A kick and nomination for the sheer beauty! nt

[Window]

23. OH HAPPY DAY!!!!!

Peace

24. Laundering campaign funds, insider trading, outing CIA agents

What crimes are left to commit by these psychopaths?

[Tactical Progressive]

25. I'm not sure that indictment is legal

I don't believe either state or federal law provides for the indictment of cockroaches, even if they walk upright. DeLay's lawyers might very well be able to have this thrown out of court.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

27. Are you suggesting Tom Delay is the creature in that movie "Mimic"?

Maybe while exterminating cockroaches in Texas, he used some kind of spray that caused one of them to mutate, kill him, and take his place and mimic his features.

[Tactical Progressive]

29. Oh geez, I just saw part of that movie last night

What a coincidence. The sfx were surprisingly good.

And no, I did not mean to impugn cockroaches in any way. I'm sure most cockroaches go about their business without harming anyone else.

[SoCalDem]

28. Amazing how the name "Ellis" keeps popping up too, isn't it?
