Tom Delay... the man who thinks the law doesn't apply to him!

Good lord, suck it up and serve what will probably be a 3-week stand in a country club "jail" like a man, you prick.

1. What ever it takes to remove Tom DeLay from political office......

never being able to return to public office will torture him.

2. It's not about jail.

It's about threat of being held accountable. The afrontery is inexcusable.

3. If it's a witch hunt...

then all they had to do was set him out in a field in Texas during Hurricane Rita and waited for a house to fall on him. What a POS.

4. Is a motion to throw the charges out a counter lawsuit? This is frivolous.

If it is, then Delay really has a double standard. In 2004 the House Majority Leader voted "Yes" on the bill to end frivolous lawsuits.

If he came up with the frivolous lawsuit bill himself, maybe he did it because he new his ass was in trouble, and thought when passed it may some day save him. The bill would have made it harder for prosecuting attorneys to indict.

Mr. Speaker, frivolous, parasitic lawsuits are a clear and present danger to the economic health of the United States.

They clog our courts, generate billions of dollars in administrative fees, artificially raise insurance premiums, kill jobs, stifle investment and innovation, and otherwise produce little else for American society but headaches and lawyer jokes.

5. This is standard operating procedure to file a motion to have the

charges thrown out. This will be quick ruling and if it does not go though, Mr. Delay is more than likely toast.
