It was a stupid thing to say. The fact that he used Delay's name made it political, and he was wrong to use Delay's name. I understand why he did it, I believe. Delay's name at a Democratic meeting is red meat. I'm sure he'd have gotten much less traction out of bragging about taking down D Rep Betty Denton, or D Rep Lane Denton, or D House Speaker Gib Lewis, or D Attorney General Jim Maddox, or D State Treasurer Warren Harding, or D Supreme Court Justice Don Yarbrough.

The fact that he's prosecuted 3 times as many people from his own party as he has from the opposition says otherwise.

Of course it could just be that the democrats are 3 times as corrupt as the republicans

OK, run with that if it works for you. I see a man whose level of partisanship has led him to possibly criminal acts, so much so as to have been indicted by a 25 member grand jury of ordinary citizens.

You say Potato, etc.

OMG We disagree! Has this every happened before?

Hmmm... (scrolls back in thread to look at Scaeagle's posts..)

I seem to have missed your post. I wouldn't have even noticed if you hadn't brought my attention to it. Guilty conscience there, eh?

No - not guilty. It's just that everything is about me.

Narcissistic?

Well, it was intended to be a joke.....sorry if the humor didn't come through.

I have thought about this a bit more.

Political enemies are often of the same political party. The simple fact that he has indicted more dems than reps doesn't mean that he doesn't use his office for political purposes. I can think of many times when members of the same party have turned against each other to suit their own political purposes.

We know the number of politicians he's prosecuted I guess. How many of those went to court? And how many were convicted? I'd be curious to know.
