I guess my chant to remove Delay yesterday worked!

House GOP Shaken Up After Delay Indictment

DAVID ESPO, AP Special Correspondent

WASHINGTON – Shadowed by scandal, House Republicans face an uncertain new era after a day of upheaval that left Majority Leader Tom DeLay under indictment and forced to surrender his powerful post.

…DeLay’s indictment marks “the latest example that Republicans in Congress are plagued by a culture of corruption at the expense of the American people,” said Rep. Nancy Pelosi of California, the Democratic leader.</i>

And the guy they picked to replace Delay as Majority Leader of the House is tied to the same campaign funny business that snared Delay. I thought the right wing were supposed to be somewhat bright. Guess not.

May this prove to be just the first of many interesting developments this fall. How about Frist getting time for insider trading? Rove frog-marched from the White House under indictment for say, treason? Once this house of cards begins to topple, watch the rethugs scatter, attempting to divorce themselves from Bush and his criminal minions.

That and baseball playoffs? SWEET!
