Former Rep. Tom DeLay (R-TX) Cleared of All Charges

This will either cause Lefty heads to spontaneously explode (not that there’s anything wrong with that) or they’ll ingore the news entirely:

The Justice Department has informed former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-Texas) that the government has ended a six-year investigation of his ties to the disgraced lobbyist Jack Abramoff, according to DeLay’s lead counsel in the matter, Richard Cullen, chairman of McGuireWoods.

The investigation lasted through two presidents and four attorneys general. Its demise provides a stark footnote to the lobbying scandals that helped Democrats regain the House majority they held for 40 years and lost in the Republican revolution of 1994, which eventually made the pugnacious DeLay one of Washington’s top power brokers.

“The federal investigation of Tom DeLay is over, and there will be no charges,” Cullen said. “This was one of the longest and expensive and thorough investigations in recent memory. DeLay took a tack right from the start that he had nothing to hide, and we have been in a routine and constant dialogue with [prosecutors].

From the very beginning, Tom DeLay was a victim of the Democrat & MSM smear machine.

When Tom DeLay was forced to step down as the Congressman from Texas’s 22nd congressional district in 2006, the MSM news cycle was non-stop covering the story with bold headlines shouting the charges against the Congressman. Now that he’s been cleared? Crickets from those same partisan hacks disguised as “journalists” and “reporters.”
