HOUSTON -– A Texas Court of Appeals in Austin has overturned the conviction of former U.S. House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, attorney Brian Wice tells KHOU 11 News.
 
In documents released early Thursday, the court said the evidence in the case was "legally insufficient to sustain DeLay’s convictions."
 
The court said all judgments against DeLay were reversed, and the former congressman was formally acquitted.
 
DeLay was convicted in 2010 for his alleged role in a scheme to influence Texas elections. Since then, he has been praying for vindication but also preparing for the possibility of imprisonment.

25. I am shocked

It will take years to clean out all these un-American thugs who are on the
bench. They are left over from Reagan, Bush I, and bush II and they see
their job as to protect republicans and the rich and powerful and not to read
the law and dispense justice fairly .... Bush v Gore is a perfectly example.

In Ohio two low level women took the fall for the 2004 stolen Presidential
election in Cuyahoga County (Cleveland) when they were convicted of
rigging the recount ..... they were sentenced to prison w/ the judge telling
them that they were protecting the higher ups ...... long story short a
republican judge overturned the verdict and they walked

The first part is pure projection.  It's Libtards that have infiltrated every level of the government ensuring their Progressive crap survives even when a Republican is in office.  The burreacy and the Libs that populate it have become a fourth branch of government.

As for Ohio in 2004...moveon.org already.  :whatever:

And finally from the "Scratch a Liberal find a Fascist" department:

33. Imprison all Republicans! They are the terrorists of the United States.



They have ruined the country, and needs to be placed in prison, hard labor and no benefits - no mail, no phone, no nothing. All privileges they had, completely and irrevocably revoked.
 
They are to be declared enemy combatants and imprisoned.

Kinda iroic that the same people that claim to want everyone to live in a Utopia are the first ones advoating a Gulag for those that disagree with them.

Even more ironic is the fact that the government they dream of will also be the one to put useless malcontents there as well.

And they're getting almost daily examples of it.

Yet, .......they just can't connect the dots.  I wonder why?  :shortbus:

It was a political witch hunt from the start.
DeLay was within the law at that time.  The law has been rewritten now.
The appellate court understood that, thus the overturning of the conviction.
