After years of inquiring, the Justice Department ended its probe of former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay over his relationship with convicted lobbyist Jack Abramoff without filing any charges.
Frankly, it's about time! Those of us who have continued to support Mr. DeLay knew there was no corruption or unethical actions committed by the former Texas Congressman, but saw the crusade against him for what it was: political persecution by the Democrats and their allies at both the federal and state levels.
However, while the federal battle is finally over, there's still the state battle in Texas , where charges of money laundering are still in place. Pre-trial hearings are set to begin on the 24th of this month; the sooner this one ends with vindication for Tom DeLay, the better.
