Well good news on the Delay front, the judge is keeping the case going though dropping the conspiracy charge. Check it.

AUSTIN, Texas -- A judge dismissed the conspiracy charges Monday against Rep. Tom DeLay but refused to throw out the money-laundering charges, dashing his hopes for now of reclaiming his post as House majority leader.

Mr. DeLay and two Republican fundraisers are accused of illegally funneling $190,000 in corporate donations to GOP candidates for the Texas Legislature. The direct use of corporate money for political purposes is illegal in Texas.


And Chris Hitchens has finally found something so atrocious he can't stand by it in this war. Ready for it? He is upset that the U.S. is lying to the Iraqis. It was ok, I suppose, when they were only lying to their own citizens about this war, but now that they are planting bullshit in the Iraqi media rather than feeding it to Judy Miller, now that's a crime. C'mon Hitch, we see you're trying to come back around but you can do better than this.

Update:
Kos has some unbelievable good news in the form of polling data from Delay's Tx-22 district. He's in trouble on more than one front.
