Ex-GOP Speaker Dennis Hastert Indicted . . .

[redcliffsw]

This amiable dunce was installed so the hated and feared Tom Delay could run the House unimpeded. Now the Patriot Act that Hastert pushed at Delay's instructions has resulted in his being indicted.

More proof Hastert is a boob: he talked to the FBI without his lawyer present. And where did this ex-high school wrestling coach get $3.4 million to pay someone off? If he'd listened to Ron Paul, and blocked the Patriot Act, he wouldn't be facing a cage. As Ron also pointed out, about normal people, it is an outrage that you can go to jail for using your own money, earned and taxed, without filling out a government form.
