Hi char,

I'm sure sr is delighted that you've joined his Missing-The-Point Club. Even if I were to grant every single word you posted, your post simply doesn't address my point which is the NYT editorial board spilling ink to inform its readers that the Pope is Catholic (actions are legal unless they aren't). 

Your lament that Delay isn't in jail is noted, but, last I checked, criminal sentences are designed to be imposed on those who commit CRIMES. Not every instance of 'disgustingly self-interested behavior' is illegal, your desire that it be so notwithstanding. His behavior led to his stepping down as did Wright's and Gingrich's. Cunningham was successfully prosecuted and Murtha dug in his heels. Rangel and Waters appear to be following Murtha's strategery.

later, bud. iowan15
