The wheels of justice have finally ground into dust the conviction of former Majority Leader Tom Delay, whose brilliant political career was ruined by a politicized indictment undertaken by a left wing district attorney named Ronny Earle.I bet a bunch of liberals are screaming
The verdict rendered by the appeals court removes the threat of prison, but it doesn't give back Delay his career, nor does it indemnify the Republican Party for the loss it suffered. In that sense, Ronnie Earle and his Democrat allies won.
A commenter wrote the following on Ann Althouse's blog
Between Ted Stevens, the IRS case, and now this -- people are going to seriously start asking if there's organized use of the federal government against Republicans. I'm going to try to resist the siren's song of conspiracy theories, but really, it is going to be hard to stomp them out.(H/T Instapundit) He also said:
The Delay case was a state prosecution, but prosecutor Ronnie Earle was clearly playing politics, as were the DOJ people going after Ted Stevens. And the IRS folks, too, obviously.
Meanwhile, what accountability for Ronnie Earle now?
