The internet comment was stoopid. The trips were nothing more than what many others have done. The ethics accusations could be read either way, from what I can see, and the much-reviled change of ethics rules only made them mirror the Dem rules, if I remember correctly. Frankly, I'm not sure where the beef is here.
(ETA - I may well have these wrong - I've paid very little attention to the late chapters of Delay.)

Every time he opens his mouth more Republicans drop their registration. The former President of the California Republican League (before me) resigned and switched parties after Delay, on ABC This Week, said that "why does the Columbine massacre surprise anyone when we teach are children that instead of being descendants from Adam, that we crawled out of some primordial ooze."
