House GOP Approves Rule Change to Protect DeLay

"House Republicans approved a party rules change Wednesday that could allow Majority leader Tom DeLay to retain his leadership post if he is indicted by a Texas grand jury on state political corruption charges.

By a voice vote, and with a handful of lawmakers voicing opposition, the House Republican Conference decided that a party committee of several dozen members would review any felony indictment of a party leader and recommend at that time whether the leader should step aside. . . .

Rep. Henry Bonilla, R-Texas, said that under the change embraced Wednesday, the House Republican Steering Committee would have 30 legislative days to review a felony indictment and recommend to all House Republicans whether a lawmaker who is charged could remain as a committee chairman or leader. . . .

"This takes the power away from any partisan crackpot district attorney who may want to indict" party leaders and make a name for himself, Bonilla said.

None of the Rules apply to any of the rethugs. Geneva Convention, International Court, Treaties, Ethic Rules, it's all for the OTHER guy. Throw out the ethics with moral values.

The rules didn't apply to Clinton when he perjured himself, why should it apply to Repubs?

Don't think you got much room to talk on ethics and moral values when you support, among others, the French and their two million in bribe money from our buddy Saddam.

Clinton was censured by Congress. I wonder if Delay will be allowed to lead the Senate from jail?

Halliburton was cheating with Iraq in the food-for-oil program also, or have you convieniently forgotten?

LOL, Halliburton!

Talk about a liberal battle cry.

I forgot, you're more conerned about villifying anything linked to the Republican party. The terrorists, murderers, corrupt assholes like Kofi, Chirac, Milosevic, Zarqawi, Osama, etc. are all good guys in your book.

Carry on.

Nope. Just pointing out more hypocrisy by the board Neocons.

Hypocrisy is bitching about Marines shooting insurgents while not saying a damn thing about insurgents chopping off people's heads.

Hypocrisy is Kofi criticizing America about Iraq, when it's obvious he's pissed because his slush fund got cut off.

Hypocrisy is bitching and moaning about the bias of Fox News while trumpeting CBS, NYT, etc. as "objective."

Oh you do a marvelous job of pointing out every murder of a allegedly 'white' civilians in Iraq, but ignore the 100,000 Iraqi civilians who have been killed thus far, and that doesn't include the thousands murdered in Fallujah in the lastest assault.
