		<description>&quot;Liberal men are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO wimpy (thatâ€™s â€œeffeminateâ€ for you liberal, â€œfat catâ€ debonaire types), they need their Amazon/granola â€˜womynâ€™ to fight the fight for them. Not surprisingly, those soft-handed, pencil necks need all the help they can get. Of course, Iâ€™m not referring to you, Joe, my favourite, uncouth, MANLY, sheap beer swilling, commie/lib.

Bahahahahahaha,

You so funny!  I bet you have man boobs ManDighty!  What a hoot your perceptions of others is!  The party that brought you ChickenHawk central, the party of girlie men who suffer from &#039;anxious masculinity&#039;, thinks progressives are unmasculine?  Bahahahaha.  That&#039;s called projection dearie.  Look it up sometime!  If you learn what it means, it&#039;ll help you understand your psychosis better. But at your level of screwed up, don&#039;t try it at home - see professional guidance!</description>

		<description>Hey aphrodite, I just checked back and here you were!  I see you that you also called me an uncouth commie/lib.  You tigress you!  I love it when you talk dirty to me!  As for Sharon, you don&#039;t need to worry &#039;bout her horning in on us.  I think she&#039;s way outta my league with that &quot;blessings&quot; stuff so you don&#039;t need to get too jealous.

Correct me if I&#039;m wrong, but I do appreciate you sticking up for me and all with the granola heads as you call them.  That&#039;s why I ain&#039;t gonna get too insulting with you so you can see that I always treat my women right----as long as they know their places.  Kind of like the way Laura and Barbara Bush do.

Say, do you think there might be a Mrs. DeLay or Mrs. Rove?  I mean, if there are, they are sure laying low while their husbands are hung out to dry.  Something a liberal woman would never allow to quietly happen to one of their men.</description>

		<description>P.S.JOE - did I tell you why the shrill &quot;fat cat&quot; - I swear he described himself that way - (he probably writes personal ads describing himself as &quot;debonaire&quot;!)  I&#039;ve figured out the poor boys&#039; problem - a little TOO much of a trim at his circumcision - I will TRY to be a bit more understanding when reading his irrational rants and miserably crafted arguments.</description>

		<description>#112 - Hey, Joe - nice of you to give Sharon &quot;Blessings&quot; Cox a thrill every once and a while!! I&#039;m sure in her neck of the woods those thrills are few and far between. But listen, you uncouth commie/lib, I apologize for RUINING your reputation with the granola heads when I stuck up for you with an obvious idiot who didn&#039;t have a clue about your poorly disguised satire -   Who says all liberals are soft-handed wimps obviously DOES NOT know you!!!! Of course, your cheap pissy beer, &quot;shared&quot; beer nuts and questionable personal hygiene..... God, what an awful thought.  I certainly hope your desire for Tom Delay to do GAY jail time is not indication of any brutality you were subjected to while incarcerated.  Oh, you didn&#039;t say you were in jail??  I just figured that sooo much information might have come from personal experience.</description>

		<description>Re:#34.  Au contraire.  In the 97th thru the 99th congress, the repub. controlled the senate.  Add those six years to the 11 since 94 and the republicans have either controlled or had a split congress for almost half the time.
factor in the yellow dog dems (Rep.) in the south who fought and deserted over segregation and states rights 50&#039;s and 60&#039;s (now in the Rep. baliwick)and you have today&#039;s political philosophy in control for 30 of those 40 years.</description>

		<description>On the Crooks &amp; Liars discussion of this ad, there is some interesting conversation near the end indicating that the PAC responsible for this ad may have violated RICO laws

I don&#039;t know why there isn&#039;t more discussion in the media about the legality of all this - it seems to set a precident that ANY criminally-imiplicated individual with enough money (or supporters with enough money) can buy advertising time to try and influence the outcome of their case.

This issue goes WAY beyond the grievances of a particular politician into the realm of the criminal justice system as a whole.</description>

		<description>&quot;â€œRather than attack Ronnie Earle, why not put some evidence in a commercial that proves your innocence?â€ - Sponge
Doesnâ€™t Ronnie â€œthe Mystery Shopperâ€ Earle have to PROVE Delayâ€™s guilt? I didnâ€™t think defendantâ€™s had to prove anything!!!! Silly me - the Rules of Evidence.
Comment by mighty aphrodite &quot;

That&#039;s a good question. Since you always make accusations about Kennedy and Clinton that were never PROVEN in court - clearly your standards are so low that if Delay is to be judged by them he should already be in Jail.  As for proof, of 15 indictments Earle has proven 13 who have either been convicted or plea bargained.  That&#039;s more times than you&#039;ve been right in your life stupid ahole!</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;Doesnâ€™t Ronnie â€œthe Mystery Shopperâ€ Earle have to PROVE Delayâ€™s guilt? I didnâ€™t think defendantâ€™s had to prove anything!!!! Silly me - the Rules of Evidence.

No, they don&#039;t. But they usually well advised to keep their mouthes shut. Expect a change of venue for tainting the jury pool. He knows he&#039;s going down. He&#039;s just fighting a DeLaying action. He&#039;s just crazy enough and stupid enough to think that in time, he can get a jury nullification like OJ. Ain&#039;t gonna happen. Dead to rights guilty.</description>

		<description>#45 - Buckfush - and unions are non-partisan??  Pressure the RNC?  How about jumping out of your members pockets and getting real jobs instead of leeching off their dues?   BAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!
They just spread contemporary misery around - but to fewer numbers of people (oh, those declining union membership #&#039;s) who don&#039;t have to depend on union thugs.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m a little late to this conversation but I do need to respond to #20.  As a former conservative I used to thinkdems had no idea&#039;s, and to a current conservative that probably appears to be the case.  Why should they put forth any idea&#039;s?  Would they get heard in congress?  Does the current right have any interest in what the dems think, other than to ridicule and demean the originators of the idea&#039;s?  I think the dems have a nowin situation here right now.  

But I also see it from another angle.  The right claims the dems have no idea&#039;s and that the right is chock full of idea&#039;s.  From my view point I say not having an idea is far better than haing  basket full of bad idea&#039;s.  Why enact plans that only lead to an America which is worse the day after the enactment than it was the day before?  Standing pat and doing nothing is far better than enacting ruinous plans.  for examples see: Iraq, Medicare, the Republican plan for the destruction of social security, etc... rising poverty rates bad economies, exploding government, declingin civil rights?  These are the results of the last 5 years of Republican only policy with no dem input allowed.  I say once those bad ideas have been allowed to fester and rot, they need to be disposed of.

The current version of the republican party is more interested in getting their way and in implementing their theories than they are in being correct.  (borrowed frm some blog somewhere)</description>

		<description>Oh, puh-lease.  Earle has a record of being an equal-opportunity prosecutor. In fact, he&#039;s gone after far more Democrats than Repugnicans.  Laws are broken, and he does his job, and now he&#039;s going to be swift-boated for it.  Gee...that is SO rare with this administration of hyenas. DeLay and Rove must have been separated at birth by a surgeon.  I expect they share the same brain--the one marked (to borrow from Marty Feldman) &quot;Abbie Normal.&quot;

Villains and poltroons are running our government.  Assassinating someone&#039;s character because you have no legitimate response or defense is so pathetic that we shouldn&#039;t even be paying attention. In fact, I think I won&#039;t.

DeLay deserves his fall. He earned it.  Thank you, Mr. Earle.

		<description>Exactly. Rather than attack Ronnie Earle, why not put some evidence in a commercial that proves your innocence? You know, some documents that have Bill or Hillary&#039;s signature, instead of DeLay&#039;s signature. Oh yeah, because the documents have DeLay&#039;s signature on them. Too bad they can&#039;t just burn shred or delete those dang documents and erase everybody&#039;s brain.

Oh crap, I think I gave them an idea.</description>

		<description>You&#039;d think if the charges were really baseless, they&#039;d concentrate on DeLay&#039;s evidence of innocence.  This just comes off looking desperate.  Why push this ad to his base?  Because he&#039;s at risk of losing them.  Political ads don&#039;t try cases, they&#039;re used to pump up public image.  He&#039;s worried about his job - not prison.  That should tell us something.  He knows he can get either a slap on the wrist or the charges dropped through assurances he&#039;s received from counsel or even worse - by his cronies.  He&#039;s concentrating on having work when this is all over.  Sad.  The Beatles were wrong.  Money CAN buy you love.</description>
