Tom Delay was right...!!!!! 'Follow the Truth Wherever It Leads'

'Follow the Truth Wherever It Leads'

Rep. Tom DeLay (R-Tex.):
On October 1998 he stated:

I believe that this nation sits at a crossroads. One direction points to the higher road of the rule of law. Sometimes hard, sometimes unpleasant, this path relies on truth, justice and the rigorous application of the principle that no man is above the law.


Now, the other road is the path of least resistance. This is where we start making exceptions to our laws based on poll numbers and spin control. This is when we pitch the law completely overboard when the mood fits us, when we ignore the facts in order to cover up the truth.


Shall we follow the rule of law and do our constitutional duty no matter unpleasant, or shall we follow the path of least resistance, close our eyes to the potential lawbreaking, forgive and forget, move on and tear an unfixable hole in our legal system? No man is above the law, and no man is below the law. That's the principle that we all hold very dear in this country.

I can't believe this guy is arrogant enough to run again. Didn't poppy had "the talk" with him about bringing down the whole party with his tomfoolery?

"In view of the enormous trust and responsibility attendant to his high Office, the President has a manifest duty to ensure that his conduct at all times complies with the law of the land," Starr wrote in the report.

"Never before in American history has a legal document of this sort made its way into public view and never before have a president's sexual habits been so thoroughly exposed to scrutiny. Even the Paula Jones sexual harassment lawsuit, which spawned the Lewinsky investigation, never yielded court papers with this level of crude and unvarnished detail. "
