Well, well, well. Looks like Tom DeLay is finally getting a good smack in the face. Granted, it’s not a dead hooker in his trunk or pictures of him and bin Laden at Scores, but I’ll take anything that knocks this asshat down a peg.

WASHINGTON - House Majority Leader
Tom DeLay was indicted by a Texas grand jury Wednesday on a charge of conspiring to violate political fundraising laws, forcing him to temporarily step aside from his GOP post. He is the highest-ranking member of Congress to face criminal prosecution.

The indictment stems from a plan DeLay helped set in motion in 2001 to help Republicans win control of the Texas House in the 2002 elections for the first time since Reconstruction.

The grand jury accused the men of conspiring to route corporate donations from DeLay’s Texas committee to the Republican Party in Washington, then returning the money back to Texas legislative candidates. It was a scheme intended to evade a state law outlawing corporate donations going to candidates, the indictment said.

I really love it when he turns his problem into a partisan attack to divert attention from himself.

The majority leader derided Earle as an “unabashed partisan zealot” and a “rogue district attorney.”

God Republicans are great. Really, their ability to blame everyone but themselves for their problems makes them almost as bad as the liberals they constantly try to pick on. I honestly can’t wait to see this unfold and watch DeLay locked up. I’d get such a kick out of that. Though, mostly because his new husband, Bubba the Ball Sack Butcher, would force him to reevaluate his bigoted stance on gay marriage.
