May as well get used to this sort of thing now that Chris Bell has taken his stand against Tom DeLay. You will note that nowhere in this piece does Rep. John Carter offer any kind of rebuttal to any of Bell’s charges. Not a single word given in evidence to support the position that the actions which Bell claims violate House rules do not in fact do any such thing. Nothing but slime and more slime, much of which as Greg notes is inaccurate, misleading, or downright dishonest. If this is the best DeLay’s defenders can do, then he really is in deep doo-doo, as someone once said.
By the way, if you want to let the Statesman know what you think of Carter’s little hatchet job, you can do so here.
C’mon Chuck – don’t you know that as long as you assert loud and long enough, that’s good enough for us Texans?
Geez, you act like we should be owed explanations from elected officials about how they conduct the public’s business.
