The Stink Isn't Going Away

From Time:

Where the controversy goes from here is difficult to say. DeLay's increasingly precarious situation has paralyzed the House ethics committee. Democrats on the committee, one of the few in Congress in which they have as many votes as Republicans do, have shut it down. The Democrats refuse to accept a new rule that would prevent the committee from launching any investigation without the support of at least one Republican--a restriction designed to protect the majority leader. The strain is showing on DeLay, who was treated in a hospital last week for fatigue and an irregular heartbeat. And for the first time, a significant number of Republicans have begun to question DeLay's political survival. Frets a senior G.O.P. Congressman about the odor surrounding DeLay: "It just isn't going away."

Some idiot named Stephan Moore from the Free Enterprise something lost ALL credibility with me when he appeared on PBS tonight as he started off his pro-DeLay spiel saying Tom DeLay is the most honest and ethical politician I have ever know.

Nobody thinks that. Not even DeLay!
