Wal-Mart Sells Hammers And Buys Them Too

Which is sleazier… Wal-Mart or DeLay? Those two deserve each other!

Donnie Earle beats them all.  I am no fan of Delay, but the prosecutor is rididulous.  He went to the first grand jury and got an indictment for a conspiracy law that did not exist at the time of the offense.  He then went back to the same grand jury on their last day in session (Friday) and they would not issue an indictment for money laundering.  He then went to a new grand jury on Monday, their first day.  This time he got an indictment for money laundering.  My bet is that Donnie Earl will get indicted, but Delay will get the charges dropped.  Earle openly bragged that he was going to get Delay.

Looking at the time line, it is entirely possible that WM cut a check on September 23 and it was not received until September 30.  That is one week from the time the check was cut until it was received, which is not unreasonable.

I think pretty much everyone understands that Mr. Delay is something of a crook. That is not something new in politics nor is it confined to one single party. I have no problem with him being prosecuted and if proven guilty he should pay the penalty like any other citizen would. This does not happen all that often though but it’s not good to make excuses for someone who thinks he’s above the law just because he happens to be a ‘mover and shaker’ in the ‘world’. To me it would be a good thing for the GOP because his actions certainly taint his party.

Larry - “I think pretty much everyone understands that Mr. Delay is something of a crook”

If he is, then so is much of Congress. Representatives like Bernie Sanders (Ind. USSR) do the exact same thing with funneling campaign funds to whatever personal use they want. Yet they hammer on the Hammer. If what DeLay does is really so bad, his critics who do the same thing should resign as well.

One of the major problems with politics is that it is almost impossible to determine whether a person is a crook or just being attacked by the other party.  I don’t like Delay for his strong arm tactics.  I am not sure he has done anything illegal.  If Ronnie Earle can’t indict Delay without resorting to shady tactics, then it makes me wonder whether Delay is breaking the law or whether it is just politics as usual.

Maybe it is legal in Texas to shop around for a grand jury to obtain an indictment, but it is certainly unethical.

Delay was indicted for something that was not a crime at the time he did it. In fact, I would go so far as to say McCain-Feingold is unconstitutional. That said, the prosecutor went back for a 2nd indictment after the 1st was thrown out. Now, the jury foreman and 1 other juror in the 2nd grand jury say they were pressured by the prosecutor to come back with an indictment. They say Earle put pressure on them to indict. I think what may happen is, Delay’s 2nd indictment will also be thrown out and Earle will be forced to resign. Serves him right.

Delay does seem rather sleazy but maybe that is because he doesn’t play the compromise game (nor should he). The Republicans are in power but you woulnd’t know it. They are afraid to act. They had a chance to finish the Democrats for good after the last election and they’re letting it slip away. They are cowards.

BY THE WAY, SPEAKING OF CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS, THE AFL-CIO SPENT MORE THAN $100 MILLION TO DEFEAT PRESIDENT BUSH LAST YEAR. THEY FAILED, OF COURSE. WHERE IS THE DISCUSSION ABOUT THEIR CONTRIBUTIONS?

Do any of the people who have made comments so far specifically know what Delay is accused of doing?  He allegedly gathered money from CORPORATE donors to redraw the House district lines in Texas two years after they were already decided because he (and the GOP) wanted to add new seats to the House of Representatives for Republicans.  This is wrong, and it doesn’t just affect Texans, it effects the entire balance of Congress, and yet GOP-supporters are quick to whitewash it away with a shrug.  Ironically, you would never hear the end of it from this bunch if a Democrat were doing it!  You would still be hearing from me though, because I’m Proud to Be Independent.  Some people still stand up for principle, but usually (but not always!) those people are not affililated with either party.

Just a little information to add to Brian’s comments.  Texas has been voting republican, yet their districts were Gerrymandered so that there were more democratic representatives than republicans.  That condition does not seem fair to me.  Delay corrected that condition.

Brian - “Ironically, you would never hear the end of it from this bunch if a Democrat were doing it!  “

Democrats “Gerrymander” all over the place. No one has mentioned it here. I’m only mentioning it since you raised the topic. There have been instances of Democrats pushing racist gerrymandering going to the courts. Your false claim belies any pretense you have of not being partisan: I guess gerrymandering is good if your side (the Democrats) do it.

ND: I’d like to hear specific facts you have that “Democrats gerrymander all over the place.” Even one would do for now. If you make a statement, you should back it up with at least one fact, though “all over the place” implies many more than that. What is the racist gerrymandering you speak of?

That’s right, Nick.  We should have a one-party government in the US.  That way all those lazy “working people” would no longer be an impediment to all those worthy rich people who sit around all day drinking at their golf clubs or give their trophy wives money to buy baubles to keep the dumb gals happy.  Destroy the unions, they are a bunch of commies.  Why have a middleman like the IRS to take the slobs’ money and redistribute it to the big shots?  Why don’t the wealthy provide dormitories with racks of wooden bunks for the slobs who produce wealth for the overlords.  Ach, vy donn’t zee uberlorden maken zure zat zee slaves never leaf zee kamps?  And any who try will be immediately shot with legal rifles.  But you do have to save a few to produce future generations of slaves, korrect?

You are way out of line talking to me in that manner. To imply that those who favor personal responsibility are somehow enslaving the rest is ridiculous. I do not believe in one-party government. What I meant was, the liberal-Democrat way of thinking was harshly voted down by the people last year. I think the average American is tired of being taxed to death, tired of being called a racist, tired of politicians with less morals than a serial child rapist. The Republicans used to be the party of limited government, personal responsibility and moral values. Now they have been hi-jacked by the EXTREME nuts and by that I don’t mean people like myself who favor a 100% strict interpretation of the Constitution. The average American is patriotic, charitable, hard-working, decent, neighborly and intelligent. Only the extremes at both ends (who shout the loudest) are heard in the media and we are supposed to believe that we are a country of Capital vs. Labor. That’s a bunch of BS.

In case you weren’t aware, the top 1% of taxpayers in this country pay nearly 36% of all taxes. The top 10% pay more than 60%. The top 50% pay more than 90%. To make the top 1%, you only needed to gross a little over $100,000 last year. That being the case, there are more than 200 UFCW employees in the top tax bracket!

Workers do not produce wealth for the stockholders for free. You make it sound like workers are enslaved. Workers are paid a mutually agreed upon wage. Those who feel they are ill-served by such a wage offer are free to reject it before they begin employment. Those who feel they can do better after they are employed are free to leave. No one is chained. Without capital, there would be no factories or other businesses for the working class to work in. We would all be living in huts for 10,000 years, making no effort to improve our situation, like most of Africa.

Yes, unions were for many years controlled either by the Communists, the Anarchists or The Mafia.

And you mention rich conservatives? I would be willing to bet that the average American can name twice as many wealthy liberals as he could wealthy conservatives. Most of the liberals are in Hollywood and in the entertainment or porn industries. Most of the wealthy conservatives are people who have had to work real jobs to get rich. So, while you are attacking the rich, remember to attack Moves, Music, Porn and such.

Just a note on wicked Wal-Mart, whcih last Thursday in Cheyenne opened its first area gas station. The day before it opened regular was universally in the greater Cheyenne area $2.79.9 a gallon. Today, Wal-Mart’s price is $2.52.9 a gallon and almost every area gas station has dropped its price to $2.56.9 a gallon. They didn’t Delay a minute.
