Why is Delay on MSNBC? Why isn't he in prison?

[Frustratedlady]

Who cares what he thinks?

[Selatius]

1. Because there are, whether we like it or not, two legal systems in America:

One for the powerful: The industrialists, bankers, and lackey politicians who do their bidding in Congress or the White House.

And one for everybody else. Delay went through the legal system set aside for the rich, not the one for the poor.

2. If there were any justice right now that's where he'd be...

but being rich and powerful is a ticket to freedom in the U.S.

3. He makes my skin crawl.

I see he's still dying his hair. It doesn't help.

5. One of the biggest scumbags in recent American political history.

4. My thoughts exactly!

Such an awful criminal being on national TV as an "authority". Makes me ill! :puke:

[MichiganVote]

6. Oh my, we don't imprison politicians don'cha ya' know

They are our Gods, our leaders, our economic jailers for pete's sake. Without them we Americans would dissolve into anarchy.

Oh, right, we already have.

7. Because he hasn't been convicted of anything, perhaps? n/t

[Frustratedlady]

8. After how many years?

10. Last I heard...

...they were trying to get the conspiracy charge against him reinstated, which was delaying (har har) the trial. Dunno what the status is now.
