I don't know if this exactly fits in with "debate", but I imagine there will be some debate on the issue; at any rate, the only other acceptable place to post it would be in The Lounge, and it will just get a lot of uninformed responses there (or will be outright ignored).
Anyway, as I'm sure anyone who's been watching the news knows, Tom DeLay was indicted on campaign financing charges yesterday, resulting in his temporarily stepping down from his post as House Majority Leader. I'm interested in hearing some informed opinions on this important issue. |

In follow up to this:
Exit Tom DeLay Do you think his resignation has anything to with his indictment? On the surface level, I'd say yes. For someone who is regarded as a political figure who is QUOTE ..."one of the most effective and gifted leaders the Republican Party has ever known . . . has served our nation with integrity and honor" , I find it interesting that he has troubles with the House ethics committee. Could be me being naive..

You know you have problems with corruption when your own party, who controls both houses of Congress and the executive branch, investigates you for ethics violations. |
