That policy was instituted by the current administration
or it will be if they get their way.
Meanwhile you are doing the red man's dance. The scream and holler harking back to dear Dennis shouting "Help I'm being repressed" that the right has gotten so good at. In fact it is the primary driver of the get out the vote strategy. Make em feel like the evil libruls are going to take their guns and let the faggots marry, then tell them you're the only one that can save them while you lift their wallet and cancel their health care.
Don't even start painting with that brush 'cause that paint won't stick anymore.

Equal opportunity rule
I'm not defnding Delay. He's, at best, an idiot that got caught by a guy who likes to find this crap on politicians.
However, he, like anyone, enjoys the presumption of guilt that goes along with any public figure, R or D that is accused of anything, no matter how minor.
He's guilty.
Now its just up to the Court to try and prove it.

1. This isn't new.
Why is it somehow more offensive now than against Clinton? He was assumed guilty (by the opposition) over any wild-assed charge that could be brought against him! Public accusations were made by theright wing media constantly, and given 'play' across country.
2. If Delay WAS 'presumed guilty' he'd be in jail now. Are you objecting to accusations? That people don't believe he's guilty before legal action occurs? Especially as the current junta hasn't shown themselves to be a particularly trustworthy lot? Yeah, there's corruption on both side of the fence - but the current clowns in office would disturb Sam Clemens, and he was the one that said: "there is no distinctively native American criminal class except Congress", and "Only a government that is rich and safe can afford to be a democracy, for democracy is the most expensive and nefarious kind of government ever heard of on earth".

Yep.
It was sad then, and its sad now.
I don't consider it any more or less offensive now than I did then.
Both guys deserve the attention...they earned it.
Difference between...Bill kept his job.

True
But I didn't see Bill take the equvalent demotion. Kind of the point I was making
But its not like I care about it.
They got one. Turnabout is fair play.

Equally Beep-bland LRPD: 'I don't mean by that that
it gets worse, well I do, but I don't mean it that way. Unless you thought I meant the opposite of what I meant, in which case vice versa (or verce visa if you prefer)."

Hey.. 'on the other hand' isn't even a 'position'
to defend or demolish - it's just a catalog of imaginary opposites. Why, one might as well say,
..whatever.
Hmmm - Orthogonal Contrarian? Start a Party. With a dbase of opposites. Many will join. ADM and maybe PNAC will fund?

Simply tired
of inflated egos bolstering post counts with vast oversimplifications of imagined positions posted in semi-foreign tongue.

"Fair play"
This is a game? Give me a break. Delay is one of the most corrupt of all members of congress if not the most corrupt. Fair play my ass.
