The ethically challenged and criminally corrupt Republican leader Tom DeLay is whining that Nancy Pelosi should apologize for calling the war on Iraq a “grotesque mistake”. One wonders if DeLay considers the majority of Americans who now think of the war as a huge mistake as similarly mean.
Considering his past activity, you also have to wonder which multimillionaire lobbyist paid DeLay to say what he said.
“The Pelosi-Durbin Democrats may think comparing our troops to Soviet and Nazi secret police is good politics, but it has no place in the leadership of one of America’s two parties.” DeLay said.
But one might wonder whether mandating those same Soviet-Nazi-secret-police troops has room in the leadership of America’s other party.
Hmmm, can you explain to me why what Earle did was bad? I think we’re only presented part of the story there.
I wouldn’t judge Earle to quickly, I think this smells of a far grander scheme to really work the system to the advantage of progressives. He made the companies pay far more than they would have if they had gone to court and he pathed the money to progressive institutions. Its bordering on unethical, but it does seem to be more of a result driven attitude than just having the fines go to state coffers.
