Not quite sure why "won" is in quotes; he did win, with 62% of the vote, but whatever. And so if you don't like someone's political views, they're guilty until proven innocent? Nice.

in the case of mr. delay, it's a bit more than "simply a difference in political views".
time again to start calling criminals criminals... no matter what color collar they wear._____________________

Do you understand innocent until proven guilty? Or is that to difficult a concept? Does that only apply to people you like, in your world?

I am myself indifferent honest; but yet I could accuse me of such things that it were better my mother had not borne me: I am very proud, revengeful, ambitious, with more offenses at my beck than I have thoughts to put them in, imagination to give them shape, or time to act them in. What should such fellows as I do crawling between earth and heaven? We are arrant knaves, all; believe none of us.

Now, I wonder, when they will impeach Puke George W. Bush for lying to congress, for wiretaps with-out warrents and for a needless pointless worthless war. As they say When President William Clinton Lied, no one died, but when Puke George W. Bush Lied over 2500 died. |

I think this is a good thing, after all, it's hard to serve your country from behind prison walls.

If Mr. Delay was kicked out of the roach exterminators club you wouldn't say he'd been found guilty of taking bribes would you? Well, not until he was found guilty that is. |

You Repubniks did not let Clinton be innocent till guilty. You all were screaming for his head before he was found innocent by the Senate. Well, I don't quite know what a "Repubnik" is, but I'm not one. And on the Clinton thing, I wasn't. I thought that whole mess was pretty idiotic on both sides. I *always* think someone's innocent until proven guilty. See, I write something, and THEN you rebut it. See how that works? You can't argue with things I haven't, you know, actually written. Does't really make sense. Common Cause, being a totally neutral and bipartisan organization..... _____________________
