DeLay accuses Earle of taking corporate funds

Rep. Tom DeLay said District Attorney Ronnie Earle, who is prosecuting him for trying to involve corporate money in Texas politics, has taken such contributions himself. "It's real interesting he has this crusade against corporate funds. He took corporate funds, and he's taken union funds, for his own re-election. That's against the law," Mr. DeLay told The Washington Times yesterday. A review of Mr. Earle's campaign-finance filings in Texas shows that he has received contributions from the AFL-CIO, including a $250 donation on Aug. 29, 2000. He also has received contributions listed on the disclosure forms only as coming from the name of an incorporated entity, often a law firm.

Maybe Earle should prosecute himself again.

Mr. Earle has said repeatedly that state law bars corporate and union contributions. Attempts to reach Mr. Earle yesterday for comment, including a phone message left on his assistant's voice mail detailing Mr. DeLay's charge, were unsuccessful.

The old telephone tag routine, eh?

EuroCrats, UN-people Demand Internet Control

The Chief has been looking at this with bemusement - sort of like a Rottweiler watching yapping toy poodles - hardly worth the trouble to respond to.

However....there HAS been a good response from the esteemed Emperor Darth Misha's Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler...and he seems to have covered all the bases, chewed up the poodles, and spit them out as being unworthy fare. Check it our - the Chief fully concurs on this one.
