Today's Roll Call reports that Republicans may push for charges of prosecutorial misconduct against Earle, in addition to their PR effort to crush him, already under way. Here's a really disgusting quote:
"Everything will be in play," said one high-ranking House Republican aide. "We will throw everything we can at Ronnie Earle." What can you do? There's more...
Despite some Republicans putting out "let justice be done" statements, today's Roll Call has the real story:
DeLay's allies privately suggested that they would seek retribution against Earle ... Charges of prosecutorial misconduct may be lodged against Earle, and a public-relations effort to discredit Earle personally had already begun on Wednesday....
"Everything will be in play," said one high-ranking House Republican aide. "We will throw everything we can at Ronnie Earle."
Suggestion: Write a quick letter to the editor of your local newspaper, and if your TV station runs the DeLay party line without mentioning Earle has prosecuted more Democrats than Republicans, give them a call. Headline News committed that sin of omission this morning. You can crib from Kos's excellent diary from yesterday: Ronnie Earle, slayer of Democrats
Recommend this diary! :-) It'll make Tom DeLay mad!
