Getting DeLay-ed off?

House Majority Leader Tom DeLay has been indicted for conspiring to circumvent Texas election laws during a campaign. Although he is claiming innocence, mysweetbeard believes it as much as the possibility of Beowulf swimming for seven nights straight and killing nine sea creatures.

Come on, nine sea creatures? You have to figure that at least one of them had spikey tentacles that spew venom. In what is certaintly more shocking than my patening of Beowulf swimmies and goggles, Howard Dean made a terrific point today:

"The Republican leadership in Washington is now spending more time answering questions about ethical misconduct than doing the people's business".

I wouldn't want Howard Dean to "do my business".

Jared: Howard, I have to use the bathroom
Howard Dean: As your House Majority Leader, I will do it for you
Jared: I don't think that's possible
Howard Dean: ...
Jared: ...
Howard Dean: I swallowed your Beowulf pogs
