JUDGE TOSSES OUT TOM DELAY CONSPIRACY CHARGES

Well, both headlines are true, of course, but the AP manages to uphold its rep as the least biased of the wire services. Tom Delay can rot. Even if he's ultimately acquitted of everything, he's still a slimeball, an asshole, and the poster-boy for nearly everything wrong with the congressional GOP.

I realize that was meant in jest, Cullen, but it's not fair. I've known too many politicians to tar most of them as being anywhere near THAT bad.
