Today’s eipsode of WallBuilders Live radio program was dedicated to lamenting the tragedy of Tom DeLay’s conviction for money laundering with DeLay’s BFF Rick Scarobough, who says that he takes solace in knowing that this nation will one day be called to judgment by God:

Scarborough: Tom DeLay is a very close personal friend of mine. I got to know Congressman DeLay when I was pastoring for twelve years in his district. I found him to be a genuine, Godly man and consequently when this indictment came down and subsequent trial began back on November the first I determined that I was going to sit at his side, minister to her and his wife. And consequently I made trips every week for three straight weeks to Austin to monitor the trial and prayed with the family. And I must confess, at least from my perspective, we’ve had a grave injustice carried forth that I pray God will intervene and correct. Rick Green: You know I ask you first, Pastor, before we get into the details, you’re someone who loves this country like we do – when you see this sort of travesty of justice and abuse of the judicial system, how do you maintain hope? Scarborough: Well, I keep my eyes focused on Jesus. I know biblically there comes a day when a nation that tramples under foot the word of God finally is called to judgment.

Later, David Barton rails against the fact that DeLay was not allowed to choose his own jury so that he could be judged by a bunch of consevative Christians who could have then ignored the law and found him not guilty, just as the Founding Fathers intended:
