From a few, perhaps. I haven't read the whole thread from the beginning but most folks whose posts I've read seem pretty reasonable about it. Do the crime, do the time. Partisan crybaby excuses are a cop out.
I'm happy when anybody on either side goes down for proven corruption. Wish it happened a lot more often.
On disputed evidence and claim.
The evidence met the standard of beyond a reasonable doubt, otherwise the jury would not have convicted Delay.
That's a fact, to argue otherwise, especially when you were not in the jury box and heard all of the testimony, is at the very best disingenuous.
Exactly.
But get used to it. The right wing, like Delay, do not want juries deciding anything. They want to push their agenda and ideology on everyone from the moral police to the jury system. Same with "tort reform". To hell with a jury. When things do not go their way they cry like sissies and run from the facts like a monkey on fire stating that it was a "kangaroo court" and all other such hissy fits.
The Democrats also have a bus load of the same left wing mind sets but they sit on the other side of the aisle. Rangel and Maxine Waters come to mind recently.
Us Goldwater conservatives are sick of all of these clowns.
