Our Newest Op Ed

DeLay's descent a win for pompous snobs
- By Michael M. Bates


Put me down as one of those disappointed with Tom DeLay's decision to give up his House leader job. No, not just because the guy takes a terrific mug shot, which he obviously does.

It's true he's under the gun for taking money from firms associated with lobbyist Jack Abramoff, but he could have played a grand game of gotcha for quite a while. Congressional Democrats, including all but a handful in the Senate, have accepted millions from the same special interests.

With the heavy cloud of corruption hanging over his head, Mr. DeLay bit the bullet. He did what he thought was best for his party.

Liberals are justifiably buoyed. Getting a conservative Republican scalp is always sweet, but this one is all the sweeter because Tom DeLay had once been - how do you say this in polite company? - a working man. How common.. ....................

By the Way... Thanks to Freeper, PilloryHillary, for the info!!
 
Better check your list again. Abramoff gave ZERO dollars to Democrats. Spin, baby , spin.
 
...Juuuust keep saying those soooothing things to yerself, pally. Dems love to be ostriches! Pretend the truth isn't out there. Only repeat your talking points from the anti-American DNC over and over again.

Keep pretending being a Democrat can still mean you can be a real American.
