Despicable

From the Houston Chronicle this unbelievable story
District Attorney Ronnie Earle, who denies partisan motives for his investigation of a political group founded by Republican leader Tom DeLay, was the featured speaker last week at a Democratic fund-raiser where he spoke directly about the congressman.
Ronnie Earlie is an elected Democrat, but his judgement is really questionable. He helped generate $102,000 for a new PAC dedicated to taking control of the Texas state Legislature. Earle was a co-founder of the PAC along with Dallas lawyer Ed Ishmael, "a leader in the Howard Dean presidential campaign." Earle's remarks were equally inappropriate. "Earle likened DeLay to a bully and spoke about political corruption and the investigation involving DeLay, the House majority leader from Sugar Land, according to a transcript supplied by Earle."

Ronnie Earle is not investigating DeLay’s PAC for raising money to help take over the Texas House, and if you don't want Ronnie Earle to be partisan, make his position an appointed position instead of an elected position.

He is investigating DeLay’s PAC for illegally funneling corporate contributions into Texas politics against Texas law.

Let’s repeat together, shall we? Corporate contributions, bad! Raising money from everyday hard working Texans who are tired of the corruption in Austin and tired of the Republicans running our state into the ground, good.

What's Despicable is that even though Tom Delay is evil and corrupt, you still support him, which implies that you are either stupid, corrupt or oblivious.

P.S. - Judge Joseph Hart ruled that the activities for TRMPAC were illegal under Texas law.
