Reps Have Learned Nothing From DeLay Prosecution

As usual, RedState is the place to go for news and activism on the defeat of the The Online Freedom Of Speech Act, which would have exempted blogs from the McCain-Feingold legislation. I’m surprised that the House killed the bill, considering House Majority Leader Tom DeLay was laid low by a prosecutor abusing campaign-finance statutes. Don’t any of those members who voted against the bill realize that it could happen to them just as easily? There are so many campaign-finance laws, I’m convinced a determined prosecutor could pin a violation on any legislator. They’re signing their own indictments.
