If Delay was a Democrat, he'd be a hero...

Gateway Pundit does some nice work shining a light on Texas liberals getting their parting shots in on Tom Delay before all charges are cleared:

Rushing to print, the liberals get their Delay Texas Monthly cover out before he is cleared of all charges.

The Texas Monthly acts wisely and gets their Personal Attack Cover Story on the indicted and not convicted (except in the press) Tom Delay.

Interesting enough, in this article the Democrats fess up to the strategy they know best... personal destruction:

"Nicknamed the Hammer for his mastery of the dark arts of persuasion, the man who had arguably been the most powerful figure in Congress for a decade had taken so many hits from Democrats and the media, and faced so many perils for so long, that what’s amazing is not that he fell but that he survived as long as he did...

This is the point in the eulogy where we say of the dearly departed scoundrel, "No one really knew him." And outside the Beltway, it’s true. A feeding frenzy engulfed DeLay with such intensity that the public came to regard him as a cartoon character: a one-dimensional caricature of the corrupt, devil-may-care pol. They saw him as a crook. A cheat. A right-wing fanatic whose motivation never changed..."

The article is really not worth your time but if you'd like to read it all here is the link.

Sad that since the liberals can't win with higher taxes, weak defense, partial birth abortion, atheism, and socialism, they are forced to spit out personal attacks, even on their own molesters.

I can't say that I'm a huge fan of Tom Delay and can't speak with any authority about his character, but he's been raked accross the coals prematurely by an all-too-eager media. Ronnie Earle forced this indictment, and it seems likely that all charges will eventually be dropped or cleared.

Texas Rainmaker is back too!
