DeLay indicted, but not concerned
Indicted DeLay leaves House leadership post
Funny how DeLay is actually not worried about this at all.
DeLay dismissed the charges as having "no basis in the facts or the law."
"This indictment is nothing more than prosecutorial retribution by a partisan Democrat," he said in a statement.
However...
In September 2002, Colyandro, TRMPAC's executive director, sent a blank check to Ellis, who was DeLay's primary fund-raiser in Washington.
According to a money-laundering indictment against the two men, Ellis is accused of having the Republican National Committee launder $190,000 of corporate donations into noncorporate money that was distributed to seven candidates for the Texas House of Representatives.
Texas law generally prohibits corporate money from being used for campaign activities.
Next stop, Bill Frist and his "blind trust" tampering. Isn't that how Jim Traficant got a prison sentence, by tampering with his "blind trust?" Hmmm. I thought so. That Jim Traficant...what a card. I miss him, actually.
