Tom DeLay indicted. We need to clean our own house.

Could the 'Hammer' be on his way to the slammer? Time will tell. DeLay and the spend happy leadership in the House should hear the wake up call now. Corruption is corruption, integrity matters and no one is above the law.
A Texas grand jury on Wednesday charged Rep. Tom DeLay and two political
associates with conspiracy in a campaign finance scheme, forcing the House
majority leader to temporarily relinquish his post.

DeLay, 58, was
accused of a criminal conspiracy along with two associates, John Colyandro,
former executive director of a Texas political action committee formed by DeLay,
and Jim Ellis, who heads DeLay's national political committee
.

DeLay may be the target of a Democratic witch hunt, and the charges may be dropped, but he will be an anchor around the necks of Republicans in 06' if he stays majority leader. Even if no laws were broken, his choice of business partners stinks.

Delay and Hastert are spending like drunken sailors, Republicans need to find fiscally conservative leadership, and fast.
