DeLay sentenced to 3 years in prison
By Laylan Copelin | Monday, January 10, 2011, 02:20 PM

UPDATED: Judge Pat Priest sentenced Tom DeLay to three years in prison.

The three-year sentence was on the charge of conspiring to launder corporate money into political donations during the 2002 elections.

On the charge of money laundering, DeLay was sentenced to five years but that was probated for 10 years.

3. This should be a wake up call to Issa
When you start investigations without just cause Karma will bring you down, and you just might meet a man named Buba. But it won't teach him or any republican anything because they are so freaking arrogant.

8. Going to a country club prison no doubt.
