It just gets worse and worse for poor old Tom DeLay:
Texas grand jury has brought a new charge of money laundering against Rep. Tom DeLay, the former House majority leader indicted last week on conspiracy charges stemming from a campaign finance probe, the congressman’s office said Monday.
In a written statement, DeLay called the indictment another example of “prosecutorial abuse” by District Attorney Ronnie Earle.
“He is trying to pull the legal equivalent of a ‘do-over,’ since he knows very well that the charges he brought against me last week are totally manufactured and illegitimate,” said the Texas Republican. “This is an abomination of justice.”
Steve Clemons has more.
