Tom DeLay is FINALLY indicted and steps down as House Majority Leader. Justice prevails, or at least takes a tiny baby step towards prevailing.
/me does a happy send-the-skunk-to-jail dance
Man, if I were at home I'd send him a congratulatory fruit basket.
Addendum: The following is an email from the man himself to his loyal constituents. Don't ask me how I got on his mailing list.
As you probably know, the very partisan Travis County D.A. recently manufactured an indictment against me that is based on charges from the 2002 Texas State House elections.
These charges are groundless and false. I am completely innocent.
Just as Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison and other public officials have defeated similar attacks from this D.A., I will prove his allegations are baseless and without merit.
Despite this partisan distraction, I will continue to represent you and fight for the interests of our community.
I’m attaching links to a brief legal analysis as well as some quotes from other sources about what is happening and why.

Thank you and I look forward to keeping you up to date.
Sincerely,
