DeLay’s hearing voices from above
http://www.thecarpetbaggerreport.com/archives/10939.html

Former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay told The New Yorker about his future plans, and what’s motivating him to keep up his conservative crusade. (via Ron Chusid)

Earlier this year, published a memoir called “No Retreat, No Surrender” … in which he claimed that as a young congressman he would on occasion drink ten to twelve Martinis at a time. In this period, he earned the nickname Hot Tub Tom. Then he found Jesus and, he said, stopped sinning. In the book, he freely confesses to committing adultery. “I had put my needs first,” he told me. “I was on the throne, not God. I had pushed God from His throne.” <…>

DeLay says that when, in the coming years, he is not fighting the indictment in Texas (he insists that he is not guilty) he will be building a conservative grass-roots equivalent of MoveOn.org. “God has spoken to me,” he said. “I listen to God, and what I’ve heard is that I’m supposed to devote myself to rebuilding the conservative base of the Republican Party, and I think we shouldn’t be underestimated.”

----

By the way, God speaks to me, too. He just told me that Tom DeLay needs to be bound in a strait jacket and put in a rubber room with Grover Norquist and Duke Cunningham.

2. god sure is one busy mofo
what with all the time he spends talking to bush and now the bugman how the hell does he ever deal with the other 6 billion plus human beings on earth? Does he farm the work out to little godlets or outsource it to New Delhi?

How fuckin presumptuous. Like god gives a rat fuck about the republican party. And if he DID care about it, he would sure as hell pick somebody better qualified to rebuild it that this sorry piece of shit.

12. He also said he's proud of the Terry Schaivo fiasco...
