Tom DeLay is another good example. There is a difference in following the law and trying to stay one step ahead of it. That difference tripped up both of these guys.

What gets me is the people he scammed the most are still out there falling for the baloney pumped out by his fellow travelers. Even the Rev. Pat Robinson said the crazy was getting out of hand and he is one of the biggest crazies out there. That's when you know things are bad.

But as long as there is money to be made in telling folks what they want to hear I don't think it will ever stop.
