more DeLay indictments!

Grand Jury Indicts DeLay for Second Time
New Felony Counts Include Money Laundering

AUSTIN, Texas (Oct. 4) - Rep. Tom DeLay was indicted for a second time in less than a week by a Texas grand jury looking into campaign contributions, a development the former U.S. House majority leader called "an abomination of justice."

The new indictment, handed up by a grand jury seated Monday, contained one count of conspiring to launder money and one count of money laundering, was brought hours after DeLay's lawyers attacked on technical grounds another indictment handed down last week.

Don't think he's going to be able to say that his lawyer doesn't understand these charges!
How many charges has these scumbag manages to weasel his way out of so far?! Hopefully justice will finally catch up to him!
DeLay certainly does have a knack for hyperbole, though, doesn't he?!
And the "liberal media" simply repeats ad nauseum DeLay's bs and doesn't go into the very real charges against him and his long history of abuse of the legal system. This one article has innumerable quotes from DeLay and his lawyer - often very personally insulting to Earle - as well as editorial comments remarking on the fact that Earle is a Democrat and not mentioning that he has prosecuting far more Dems than repugs. It would be nice if there was actually a "fair and balanced" media and not just ultra-conservative bullshit....
