PAC memo links DeLay to fundraiser
I believe this is the smoking gun, people:

AUSTIN - A newly obtained memo indicates U.S. House Majority Leader Tom DeLay had personal involvement in directing some of the fund-raising activities of a political action committee that is under a grand jury investigation.

Three of DeLay's political associates have been indicted by a Travis County grand jury on charges of illegal fund raising involving Texans for a Republican Majority, TRMPAC. DeLay, who was a TRMPAC founder, has distanced himself from its operations.

A memo obtained by the Houston Chronicle on Wednesday indicates DeLay was more than a passive participant in TRMPAC fund-raising events.

6. Well . . . he was admonished by the House Ethics Committee for having
committed several felonies. Are you suggesting that republicans should be held responsible for the crimes they commit?
