I don't see how he could attend, as he has never attended a funeral for a U.S. service man or woman.

4. I think they'll all be there.
It's the last act of their despicable little drama.


Could be that DeLay's Midnite Matinee was planned - knowing there would be at least two benefits. One makes a hero (to the tight-right) of * as he wings home to save Terry and throw the crumbs to his most annoying constituency. But they know their legislation and the subsequent appeals won't change a thing - so Two -paints all Democrats and all Judiciary as evil, God-less, etc.


It could also blow up in their smug and smarmy faces.


But be warned: I thought this all up while the halcion the dentist gave me was wearing off. :)

5. I can see it already......
Tom Delay there, completely prostrate, laying over the casket, clutching a bottle of water, and when he can get his breath, moaning that he's brought her a drink, only to be too late. Or, uhhh, maybe he'll just go golfing in Scotland or something if he can get someone to pay the bills for him.

7. I hope
DeLay's rug falls off.


On second thought, I understand that Michael plans cremation. The fugly's at you know what site were carping about him trying to destroy evidence of his abuse by doing this - then someone in their right mind suggested Michael didn't want Terry's grave to be the place the neo's thought it would be approporiate for them to drop off their grilled cheese Jebuses.


If he's smart, Michael will take her ashes out to sea.

6. They won't go
Their poll numbers are dropping because of this and they're going to distance themselves from her as quick as they can.
