Jerry Seper – DeLay sentenced to 3 years in prison – The Washington Times – 11/01/2011 – http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2011/jan/10/delay-sentenced-to-3-years-in-prison/
“According to the indictment, DeLay conspired to make a political contribution in violation of Texas state law. The indictment said DeLay’s Texans for a Republican Majority Political Action Committee (TRMPAC) accepted $155,000 from companies, placed the money into an account and then wrote a $190,000 check to an arm of the Republican National Committee (RNC), effectively laundering the money to allow its use in state races under Texas law. That donation, the indictment said, included a document that listed the names of Texas state House candidates and the amounts they were supposed to receive. Prosecutors said the money helped Republicans in 2002 take control of the Texas House. That majority allowed Republicans to push through a congressional redistricting plan engineered by DeLay that sent more Texas Republicans to Congress in 2004, prosecutors said. During the trial, DeLay’s attorneys argued that a money swap resulted in seven candidates legally getting donations. They also argued that while DeLay gave his name to the PAC, he had little to do with its operation.”

“The real enemies of liberalism and intellectualism—the religious fundamentalists and far right political operators serving as mentors to young Tom DeLays and Newt Gingriches—were conducting their education in the irrational, far from the media spotlight, and young radicals therefore knew as little as most of the neoconservative New York intellectuals did about the Other Sixties. The cultural realities of the decade, and their long term effect on intellectual life in America, do not fit neatly into either a conservative or a liberal political script.”

Kyle – Does Anyone Remember Tom DeLay’s Plan to Build a Conservative MoveOn.org? – Right Wing Watch – 11/03/2010 – http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/does-anyone-remember-tom-delays-plan-build-conservative-moveonorg
«Seeing this clip of Tom DeLay claiming that those who are unemployed want to be unemployed and saying that unemployment benefits just «[keep] people from going and finding jobs» got me thinking, just what is Tom DeLay’s job? … That’s right, DeLay’s conservative version of MoveOn consists entirely of a website that contains nothing but links to three local CCM chapters of Phoenix, Colorado Springs, and Denver. So what is it that Tom DeLay has been doing, exactly?  Oh wait, I remember: VIDEO»

James C. McKinley Jr. – DeLay Is Convicted in Texas Donation Case – The New York Times – 24/11/2010 – http://www.nytimes.com/2010/11/25/us/politics/25delay.html
«After 19 hours of deliberation, a jury of six men and six women decided that Mr. DeLay was guilty of conspiring with two associates in 2002 to circumvent a state law against corporate contributions to political campaigns. He was convicted of one charge of money laundering and one charge of conspiracy to commit money laundering. As the verdict was read, Mr. DeLay, 63, sat stone-faced at the defense table. Then he rose, turned, smiled and hugged his wife and then his weeping daughter in the first row of spectators. He faces between 5 and 99 years in prison, though the judge may choose probation.»
