Small Victories

I neglected to report on this last week, but the American people have won a minor victory in the battle to rid ourselves of one of the vilest leeches on the planet. Namely Tom DeLay —a.k.a. the “Six of Clubs in the “52 Most Wanted War Criminals” deck of cards (of which I just received my long-overdue copy).

No, it’s not — yet — a conviction of the architect of the Texas coup, but it’s a start. (And bravo to Howard Dean for having the balls to come out and say, a week prior, what anybody with a brain already knows — DeLay is a corrupt villain who deserves to be rotting in a prison cell.)
