Toxick, this has nothing to do with DeLay's status as a Republican.

The GOP is so concerned about DeLay's ethical history that they changed House rules so that leaders indicted during their service are not required to resign that leadership post. Disgusting. Democrats did that in 1993 to protect the former chairman of the Approrpriations committee, and Republicans had a field day. Now they do the same thing. Pathetic, utterly pathetic.

Poor ethics transcends party lines, right now power is being abused by the party in power, so its time for a new order.
