From the AP:

Former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay said he never thought the courts would prevent the Republican Party from replacing him on the November ballot, a Houston television station reported Thursday.

“I’m very disappointed in our justice system. There doesn’t seem to be justice,” DeLay told KTRK-TV….

DeLay said he doesn’t have second thoughts about his decision to resign from Congress and give GOP leaders a chance to replace him on the ballot.

“Knowing what I know now, I don’t think I would have done it any differently because I read Texas law, I knew what Texas law was,” he told the television station.

Does this sound like a man who needs a legal team drawn from nine different firms? Won’t all those lawyers just get in the way of his righteous knowledge?
