Once in a while, we get a little justice.
Former U.S. House Majority Leader Tom DeLay — once one of the most powerful and feared Republicans in Congress — was convicted Wednesday on charges he illegally funneled corporate money to Texas candidates in 2002.
Jurors deliberated for 19 hours before returning guilty verdicts against DeLay on charges of money laundering and conspiracy to commit money laundering. He faces up to life in prison on the money laundering charge.

I doubt this corrupt cockroach will get life, so I'll settle for whatever.
Wherezat smirk now, Tommy?
I'm sure there will be appeals and he might never actually go to jail, but I savor the moment I have.

| Lets remember there are appeals but RIGHT ON!!!! Of course he could get a pardon in the end, from the possible next president. Irregardless, this should wipe the smile off his face, for the time being. SS |
