Texas Justice Delayed - Round and Round We Go
This is too funny. On Tuesday Tom Delay's lawyer successfully moved to have Judge Bob Perkins removed from Tom's money laundering case because Perkins was a Democrat who had made political donations to Democratic candidates and causes. Today, DA Ronnie Earl successfully had Judge B.B. Schraub, the judge in charge of appointing a new judge to the case, removed for his donations to Republican politicians. Now it's up to Chief Justice Wallace Jefferson to pick a judge. Nevermind that Jefferson's campaign treasurer is also treasurer for Delay's PAC Texans for a Republican Majority.
Oh, this just in. Pat Priest, a semi-retired judge from San Antonio, a Democrat to boot, has been appointed to hear the case. Is this the end or are they going to have to remove the case to India before everyone's happy?
