DeLay’s New Excuse: “I Misspoke”
Since DeLay was first indicted, he has bashed District Attorney Ronnie
Earle and dismissed the charges:
"This is a frivolous indictment. I am indicted just for the reason to
make me step aside as majority leader. "
But on Rush Limbaugh’s show (10/4/05), DeLay offered another
explanation, based on his meeting with Earle a month before the first
indictment (Sept. 28):
"I can’t really talk about specifics of that interview because it’s
under grand jury secrecy and, unlike Ronnie Earle, I’m going to adhere
to that agreement, but suffice it to say, I misspoke one sentence —
one sentence — and they have based all of this on one sentence, and
that basically, they think that before the check was cut and sent to
the Republican National Committee, I approved that check, which is
totally false. I didn’t know that this went on ’til well after it had
happened. "
DeLay’s excuse doesn’t hold up. Earle said the new indictment came
about based on new information that “came to the attention of the
District Attorney’s Office” last weekend (not a month ago). DeLay has
consistently said the whole scheme was legal, but has not disputed the
facts. Looks like he finally recognizes the merits of indictment and
admits that he may have brought them on upon himself. Next step:
recognizing that money laundering is a crime.
