DeLay’s Vindication, Texas’s Shame

By The Editors September 20, 2013   
It is a scandal that there has been and will be no serious jail time in the matter of former Republican majority leader Tom DeLay — Ronnie Earle, the hyperpartisan Democratic prosecutor whose risible case against DeLay has just been finally thrown out by the Third District Texas Court of Appeals, richly deserves to be measured for an all-orange wardrobe.
After eleven years, the matter of Mr. DeLay’s fund-raising in the 2002 election cycle has been finally put to rest, with Mr. Earle’s case having been vivisected by Justice Melissa Goodwin, who in her quietly scathing opinion did not bother even to consider six of the eight points raised by Mr. DeLay’s defense, finding the first two sufficient to snuff out what is in theory a prosecution but is in fact a persecution…..To Read More…..
My Take - The real question now is this; can this misfit prosecutor be sued for his misconduct? He clearly acted outside his legislative authority. That makes all he did personal acts for which he is clearly responsible! Right?
What is the difference between what this unfit public official did versus what Nifong did in the Duke University lacrosse team rape case, when members of the team were falsely accused of rape by Nifong; who knew the charges were false. He is being sued by those families, and I think it would do the state of Texas a world of good if Tom 'The Hammer' Delay brought Mr. Earle, the former chief prosecutor of Travis County, Texas - who has slide into a well deserved obscurity - back into the limelight by following the example suit of the Duke lacrosse players families....and sue him.
