3. I think he should
get the congressional medal of honor, or at least the medal of courage frm the Wizard of Oz and the Cowardly Lion!

4. Um, I don't know that he "filed" anything...he made some (accurate)
accusations...unfortunately he's a lame duck at the moment.

5. I hope those charges stick like super-glue!!
I also wish SOMEONE SANE would run against DeLay and beat the snot out of him!!!!

If Texas didn't have so many black boxes at the polls, this wish would prolly have a chance of coming true!!

:kick::kick:

6. I read that Delay gets very nasty when crossed
Only an outgoing congressman would be able to do something like this.

I don't mean to take anything away from what Congressman Bell did. It was great, and brave. And he still will need to watch his back.
