GOP moves could silence complaint against DeLay (the ethics thing)

http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/ssistory.mpl/politics/2633730

House Republicans are trying to block U.S. Rep. Chris Bell's ethics complaint against House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, with Democrats saying the GOP is trying to silence any criticism of its chief.

-snip-

U.S. Rep. Ray LaHood, R-Ill., took steps Thursday to throw out the complaint by Bell, a Democrat whose Houston-area district borders DeLay's.

-snip-

A spokesman for House GOP leaders said the series of events in defense of DeLay was not a coordinated effort.

the rest of the tells of the darts being thrown back and forth

2. Stop ethics complaint. Censor F911. Take over radio.

Don't release torture photos. Don't relase energy task force membership. Don't arrest Ken Lay. Audit liberals. Declare martial law. Round up liberals into camps. Execute liberals and cremate the bodies.

6. Do we have another Michael Moore who could DOCUMENT this?

We need to SEE THE PICTURES, man. Americans really don't know anything... they are too inert to even care. But then WE will suffer because of their inertia.
