O'rielly says leftwing blogs are attacking people and you all disagree by attacking him and Mr Delay with some of the most vile stuff you can imagine. We are all Americans. If you disagree ok, but attacking does nothing to help. I don't care if your left or right, Democrate or Republican you are innocent until proven guilty. I even read a comment that says he will see Mr Delay in hell. I pray for you my friend lets stop the hate and wait for the trial. If convicted he will pay but I pray the hate that hardens our heart in this country can stop. I just can’t beleive what I have read.

The Bug-man said: "And so it's bigger than any one of us, and we have to do everything that is in our power to save Terri Schiavo and anybody else that may be in this kind of position, and let me just finish with this: "This is exactly the kind of issue that's going on in America, that attacks against the conservative moment, against me and against many others. The point is, the other side has figured out how to win and to defeat the conservative movement, and that is to go after people personally, charge them with frivolous charges,...." Of course, this is from a man who had the plug pulled on his own father, abused Homeland Security to send airplanes after Texas Dem legislators, etc. Remember: Tom Delay also tried to link the Terri Schiavo case to himself.

He should not be given a platform to spout any more of his nonsensce and lies. Please, let's not hear one more word about him or from him until his trial, and hopefully his conviction. He thinks of himself as a tough guy (the hammer) so he should serve time in the general population of a real prison. Tom Delay is a virus.
