Hastert a Heartbeat Away From Money-Laundering Scheme

Well, this was refreshing to see in the press today:

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) - A Texas grand jury on Monday re-indicted
Rep. Tom DeLay on charges of conspiring to launder money and money
laundering after the former majority leader attacked last week's
indictment on technical grounds.

I was wondering when we were going to use the proper language and call the whole thing what it really is.

Honestly, now, if $190,000 is collected -- illegally or not -- and then filtered through another organization in the same amount in an effort to legitimize it, that's money-laundering.

If it happens to be part of the "election reform" these bastards ushered in in the past 11 years, then it's called institutional money-laundering.
