Republican Culture Of Corruption - DeLay

While the focus is on DC and the various White House staffers who are under investigation, the DeLay investigation continues to chug along.

AUSTIN, Texas. A grand jury investigating an alleged campaign finance scheme asked Thursday for all e-mails sent and received in 2002 by three indicted associates of Rep. Tom DeLay.

The latest subpoenas request correspondence to and from e-mail addresses belonging to John Colyandro, Jim Ellis and Warren RoBold. The grand jury did not ask DeLay, a Texas Republican, to provide e-mails.

Colyandro was executive director of a political action committee founded by DeLay. Ellis runs DeLay's national fund-raising committee. RoBold is a Republican fund-raiser in Washington.


Since Watergate, have so many members of one political party been under investigation at the same time?

I am a card-carrying member of the middle third of the voting population - - committed to neither the Repubs nor the Dems. So I call it how I see it, regardless of which party it impacts. Genetically, Bush is not a bad person. But he's sleeping with dogs: irrepressibly shameful, conniving and loathsome in nature. They're killing our country: at home and abroad. Libby will get indicted b/c Fitzerald has the goods on him: an incriminating documentary evidence. Rove will escape the Grand Jury indictment only b/c there's no written proof - - but he lied, as did Libby to protect the plot by Cheney to get back at Wilson. We need a seismic change in the White House and both houses of Congress. We'd best voice our displeasure in the mid terms and in the interim, voice it publicly, frequently and with vigor.
