Jaded Times

DeLay indicted, oh and he’s indicted here too. Sure, it’s all over the news but my cat has urged me to at least post something about it in the Jaded Times. I learned about this legal turn of events from a NPR report this morning, which indicated it was a surprise to Tom. Then of course those types usually think they’ll get away with it because . . .well they usually do.

Senate Historian Donald Ritchie:

There’s never been a member of Congress in a leadership position who has been indicted.

I recall another NPR report over the summer where Laura Bush was saying something to the effect that he was a good friend and this was all nonsense.

Press Secretary Scott McClellan:

Congressman DeLay is a good ally, a leader who we have worked closely with to get things done for the American people.

Something about running on morals.
