Say What You Want...

...about Al Franken, but last week, as I was just finishing his chapter in "The Truth...With Jokes" that told sordit details about one Jack Abramoff, Abramoff tells his side. Any differences in what Franken claimed and what Abramoff is admitting? Not a bit.

The trickle-down effect of Abramoff's testimony is being felt this morning, as Tom DeLay will apparently make it official today: he's quitting his leadership role. Many people will say this today: "At least it's a start."

DeLay stepping down.

From the story, just so we can get the facts out before Vonster trashes this post:

His [DeLay's] about-face came amid growing pressure from fellow Republicans who were concerned about their own political futures in the wake of this week's guilty pleas by lobbyist Jack Abramoff.
