Tom DeLay -- A Law to Himself

Theocratic U.S. House Majority Leader Tom DeLay has now been rebuked by the House Ethics Committee for the third time in six days.

Melanie Sloan, executive director of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, notes that the committee has admonished DeLay for three separate incidents -- in addition to the admonishment issued against him a few years ago. That's a total of four strikes against DeLay by the House Ethics Committee. Sloan said this "clearly shows that he believes himself to be above the law."

Like most theocrats and many culture warriors, DeLay is convinced that "the end justifies the means."

Southern Baptists have been cursed with leaders like this for a quarter century. Now they are leading our government.
