    Ol’ Tom sure does seem to appreciate the services of those fancy “trial lawyers” nowadays……don’t he?

    Makes you wonder maybe if he stepped down due to having inside information about this decision.

    Who said the following?

    “During my time in Congress, I have always acted in an ethical manner within the rules of our body and the laws of our land.”

    If your answer is Tom DeLay, you (a) have an Orwellian sense of humor; and (b) are correct.

    Damn liberal Texas Courts….

    delay DeLay? Yea!


  9. Lisa says:

    It’s always the Democrats fault. Wouldn’t ya think they could come up with something new? The lying, thieving bastards get caught and it’s the damn Democrats. If it wasn’t for those darn Democrats we wouldn’t have any problems just lying, cheating, and stealing.

    I agree crc – we really need to do some serious housecleaning. DeLay wouldn’t know ethics if it bit him in the ass; oh yeah, it IS biting him in the ass!

    It is another Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton vast left wing conspriacy attack.

    Leave poor Tom Delay alone. He has been through so much trouble, even his wife is starting to like like Tammy Faye Baker.

    When will the mean left stop attacking the poor right?

  13. Morgan says:

    We all know Clinton bought off everyone in the 8 grand juries and all the various courts to bring this about. It can’t possibly be The Hammer’s fault. Just yesterday said he said he’s never ever done anything wrong. I think we should trust him. He’s got such great references like Cunnigham and Abramoff.


  14. Spudge_Boy says:

    I was watching Hardball last night. Chris Matthews had a bunch of political commentators on from a bunch of different publication. When on of the commentators brought up the fact that the Abramoff scandal started from an administrator blowing the whistle, Chris Matthews said ‘Kind of makes you not trust those admins anymore’ or something close to that. I had to scream at the television “If you weren’t doing anything wrong, you wouldn’t have anything to worry about!!!!’

    That is how it is?

    So, people should hire admins that will cover up for them. THAT is the soultion, not following the law.

    Sheesh!


  15. yankeluh says:

    I THINK that if you will check, there are no democrats on that appellate court. Would be interesting to know.


  16. Pete Bogs says:

    there’s no more running for you, Tommy Boy… no more golf outings where you’re going…


  17. progressive and proud says:

    Batter up, he’s but a little fat fishy.


  18. Kiki says:

    I think all 9 of the judges on that court are elected Republicans. So much for the vast liberal conspiracy.


  19. Marie says:

    Gosh, this is just another facet of the vast conspiracy against the varmint! Those eight grand juries are all co-conspirators with these judges who just have it in for poor Tommy. Shucks.


  20. JIMBO says:

    Take your medicine like a man, Tommy.

    Open your mouth and swallow. By the way, you might want to practice that come prison time.

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHA


  21. big papa says:

    Does this mean he might be guilty?


  22. Cyra Brown says:

    Pity? Party of one! Now where did I put that dang violin? Tee-Hee!
