Three Grand Juries Didn't Buy Earle's Fantasy

Remember Texas prosecutor Ronnie Earle, who makes it a habit of ponying up charges against his enemies and getting grand juries to indict them (and which are usually thrown out for lack of substance), got really pissed when THREE grand juries told him to "go fly" before another grand jury "bought his fantasies" and indicted Tom DeLay on the most minimal of charges, charges that are backed up ONLY by a statement to a prosecutor in an interview that he was "generally aware" of what his associates were doing. I guess he thinks they ought to be completely uncritical of his attempts to indict his enemies. The only reason he was able to destroy DeLay's career by "indicting" him is that the Republicans promised that anybody who got so indicted would "step down." The Democrats have made no such promises and thus, a number of Democrats guilty of many things, are still in the Congress. Earle even let a film company do a "documentary" about the case, showing just how "one-sided" he was. I don't know if this film was made before a judge's decision came down, but it definitely shows his bias. (Byron York/National Review)
