Not the same thing, Wrangel didn't get indicted, nor convicted in a court of law - just pilloried in Congress by Congress critters. Maybe he ought to go to jail - but, he needs to be tried in a court of law first. You go be outraged about Chuckie Wrangle all you want. I'll be content with being disgusted. I'm not even outraged at DeLay. After all, it was just business as usual. But, it happened to be illegal. ENJOY!!! From Uncle Dirty Dave's Kitchen Home of YAHOOOOAHHHH Hot Sauce & Hardin Cider ...
