DeLay and Heroes

The Blog | Cenk Uygur: Down Goes DeLay! | The Huffington Post: "No way DeLay steps down unless they've nailed him. What, he was afraid of a tough electoral fight in November? It's inconceivable that would scare him away.

No matter what the reason though, today is indisputably a good day in America. I am most proud of the local and federal prosecutors who were not shy in pursuing these cases of corruption no matter where they led. They were not deterred by significant political intimidation. It appears they fought for justice and the American way, and in so doing, preserved those ideals.

It's great to see that there are men of honor left in the country. When all is said and done, real American heroes are going to found out of the rubble of this administration. The Justice Department lawyers that stepped down rather than follow illegal orders. Military commanders who retired early rather than carry out loathsome commands. Prosecutors who insisted on following the law and enforcing the American justice system."

10-4, good buddy.
