7. Remember, gang — we are not to say

"TOM DELAY IS GUILTY AS HELL," since he hasn't been convicted.

When, and only when, a jury in a court of law declares that TOM DELAY IS GUILTY AS HELL are we to say TOM DELAY IS GUILTY AS HELL.

8. I would not even suggest

that Tom Delay IS GUILTY AS HELL, until he is convicted, if he is convicted. Then he would be GUILTY AS HELL.

Thanks! :beer:

10. Texas Justice is rough and not much justice.

DeLay picked the wrong state to get indicted in.
