Let's get the facts straight. Tom Delay threats of retribution were due to that fact that the Judge broke the law and disobeyed a direct congressional order. The Judge actually broke many laws but that's what needs to be investigated. Now if someone commits a crime and a DA threatens to prosecute would you have a problem with it?
As Cornyn's threat, he was asking if there was a connection, not telling people to attack judges. That's like if someone says, "al Qaeda doesn't like the way we live so they attacked us" then they support al Qaeda. I get this strange feeling I'm going to be called names again :) On Apr 7, 2005 7:54 AM, Larry C. Lyons wrote: > Its not just the Shiavo issue.
