Sorry - our office holiday lunch Christmas party was today. I'm totally stewed.
Hastert shuts down Congress for DeLay's trial
Putting party ahead of country.
Speaker of the House Denny "yes, Mr DeLay" Hastert puts the nation’s business on hold to give corrupt scumbag Tom DeLay time to complete his criminal trial, regain his majority leadership position:
House Speaker Hastert and his top lieutenants are seeking to avoid a divisive intra-party leadership fight…Hastert has scheduled the first House session of 2006 for Jan. 31 - after a holiday break of more than a month, and two weeks after senators are due to return to Washington. The late start gives DeLay a greater amount of time with which to dispose of the charges, as new leadership elections could not occur until the House is back in session.
Hastert makes it clear that, in his view, giving DeLay one last shot to hold on to his leadership post is more important than doing work for the American people.
