Republicans change rules to protect the guilty
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

David Cohen Wednesday 1st December, 2004

The House Republican Conference's rules change has the smell of slipshod ethics, favoritism for the few and protection for the powerful.

On Nov. 17, the conference decided by a voice vote to give the House Republican Steering Committee 30 days to review a felony indictment against those who hold party leadership positions and recommend whether they continue in their post or step aside. The party rules change was prompted by the fears that Majority Leader Tom DeLay, R-Texas, the real power in the Republican House, may be indicted. Three of his political teammates face criminal trials for alleged campaign fundraising violations based on Texas law.
