Tipsheet Obama's Criminalization of Politics Tom DeLay | September 29, 2008 4:50 PM Advertisement "All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing." - Edmund BurkeAs someone who has been attacked by a rabidly liberal partisan prosecutor Advertisement and who is quite aware of what prosecutors are able to get away with, I can tell you that criminalizing politics is exactly what the Obama camp intends to do.
