Tom Delay turns himself in Harris County per CNN

[AlCzervik]

Breaking now.

He made a deal with the Fort Bend Sherriff's dept to turn himself in at Harris county thats why there isn't much media coverage of the actual walking into the courthouse.

1. Lock him up and throw away the key!

:woohoo:

[AlCzervik]

2. i can't wait to see the mugshot.

[nadinbrzezinski]

he is INNOCENT until proven guilty

this is STILL the US... as much as Delay has done to try to change that fact...

Remmember that ok.

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

8. I do

but I can't help recalling an old Doonesbury cartoon from Watergate, where Megaphone Mark is saying on the college radio station that all the Watergate players are innocent until proven guilty--and the last frame shows a wide eyed grinning Mark saying "Guilty! Guilty! Guilty!"

[NoPasaran]

12. I'm concerned that he may be a flight risk

I just want to keep an eye on him until his trial.

[nadinbrzezinski]

26. Agreed, a run for the border woudl not shock me

[NNadir]

36. OK. Let's have a fair trial then string 'im up.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

3. I am looking forward to seeing his mugshots! eom

[FreedomAngel82]

4. But but!!

:sarcasm:

[nadinbrzezinski]

6. He is, until he is convicted

which will happen if Earle (and I think he does) has a solid case

16. What did Hillary (Hitlery) do this time? LOL!

[LaPera]

19. What the fuck does that mean?

[Connie_Corleone]

31. Read the post above me and quit freaking out.

The freeper poster calls Hillary "Hitlery".

Chill the hell out.

[LaPera]

35. I never chill when I can attack...keep it going for me Trickie!!

[louis-t]

18. Wouldn't mess with her, she's "spiting nails"

What is 'Hitlery' guilty of, you ninny?

[walldude]

32. LMFAO.. oooh she's spitting nails.. I'm so scared

So Rose, you think Hillery was guilty of something, well then it just goes to show that the people in your party are so fucking stupid that they can't get away with something as lame as money laundering... LMAO.. you people are fools, you are led by fools and criminals and your party is going to pay for it's arrogance and hubris. So pucker up and kiss my progressive liberal white ass :D

[EstimatedProphet]

37. Bring it, Tokyo Rose!

You'll find out that we of the left aren't all weak-kneed pushovers.
Go ahead, get in our faces. See what happens to yours if you do.

[Justitia]

15. Why is this NOT ON FILM??? Damn liberal media!! -eom

[AlCzervik]

17. i don't think they knew he would turn himself in at Harris county

most of the media is at Fort Bend, he made a deal with the sherriff so he could go to Houston instead.

[nadinbrzezinski]

20. And honestly can you blame him?

I can't, the fact that he has to show up for the mug shot is humbling enough to a man who once quiped, "I AM the US government."

Now granted I would love to see him in cuffs and frogmarched, but I can understand it.

[AlCzervik]

23. Well he's a pretty haughty guy, i would have thought he would have

a big shit eating grin on his face while he was walking into the station.

[nadinbrzezinski]

25. no, in his puny mind that is admiting defeat,

taht is why he is avoiding it... no matter mug shots are a matter of public record

[Justitia]

21. Real, independent media would have cameras at any possible location

I definitely think strings were pulled to make this less embarrassing for DeLay.

So, he gets SPECIAL TREATMENT for being an indicted criminal defendant, but if a Dem so much as got a ticket for jaywalking CNNABCNBCMSNBCFOX would have his walk into the pokey on film from every angle - including aerial!

What a chickenshit criminal defendant and what a complicit, fawning media we have!

[AlCzervik]

24. i bet there were local reporters that cover the beat, hopefully

one of them caught it on film.

[maine_raptor]

22. Turned Himself IN!!!!!!!!

:wtf:

What, he didn't have the guts to shoot it out like a real man would?

What a wuss!!

[VolcanoJen]

27. MUGSHOT - thanks, Bridget Burke!

[maine_raptor]

28. Why is this Man Smiling?

Or even still standing for that matter?

[VolcanoJen]

29. Because he's a smarmy suit who doesn't take the law seriously?

Just guessin'. :-)

[Connie_Corleone]

33. What kind of a mugshot is that?

Where's the side view?

[satireV]

30. CNN says he turned himself in...in Fort Bend
