A Republican exonerated;
A Texas Court of Appeals has ruled the evidence against former House majority leader Tom DeLay was “legally insufficient” to sustain the conviction. A three-judge panel voted 2 to 1 to formally acquit DeLay on Thursday morning.
Decision here.
Meanwhile Dems generally always skate…..
The Appeals judge probably considered that….
From ABC news:
“For both DeLay and his critics, the process was frustratingly slow, due in part to some of the appeals court justices in Austin recusing themselves as well as DeLay’s successful effort to have a judge on the panel removed because of anti-Republican comments she made.”
Finally! But kind of like getting a refund from a tattoo artist.
The damage is done — which was the aim of the Dem lawfare effort all along.
DeLay never was guilty.
It doesn’t matter; the damage to Delay’s reputation is already done. Everyone will remember the hyped-up newscasts from 2010 and very few will hear of this appeal. The Democrats who waged lawfare against him still win and won’t face a day in court for their malfeasance.
As Mark Steyn always says, the PROCESS is the punishment. The political damage was done.
Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton has been involved in numerous shady $ deals and campaign fundraising scandals: two new ones just recently. http://swampland.time.com/2013/09/13/longtime-clinton-aide-the-link-in-campaign-scheme/ and http://townhall.com/tipsheet/kateandrews/2013/08/14/revealing-nytimes-exposes-clinton-foundation-n1664254
This is exactly how it works.
That reminds me. How many Liberals served time in jail for Chretien’s brown bag caper?
