Dear House Democratic Caucus:

Now that the Republican Caucus has decided to protect Tom DeLay by voting to lift the rule barring Republican Congressmen from holding leadership positions if they have been indicted, I think what you should do is pass a measure forbidding Democrats from holding leadership positions if they are indicted.  If you already have that rule, I'm sure you can think of other ethics rules you can strengthen to highlight the Democratic position on ethics in government.

Sincerely yours,

The Iron Mouth
