Corrupt former House Majority Leader Tom Delay to get down on Dancing with the Stars

[ccharles000]

Does this mean it will be "Hammer time" and we'll see him in parachute pants?

Tom DeLay is the name DWTS executive producer Conrad Green expected to have "most people splattering on their cornflakes" following this morning's announcement on Good Morning America. How did it come about? "I know it will sound stupid, we just asked him," Green tells EW. "We usually throw a few Hail Marys every season to people we don't think are gonna say yes, but we think, oh, why not ask him. Occasionally, they come off. As it turns out, Tom DeLay likes to do a bit of the Two Step, he likes dancing with his wife. His daughter is a country dancing champion, I believe. He actually really enjoys dancing. Now I don't know whether that translates into him being the next Mario Lopez on the dance floor, but I think he's gonna come into it with a big smile on his face and probably surprise a lot of people cause he's gonna embrace it so much."

War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.

When his ass is thrown into Federal penitentiary there will be a Lottery for who gets the first "dance".

8. They need to change the name, then to

Dancing with the Criminals

He's not a star. He's an embarrassment.... and a criminal.

I hear Mr. Delay is well versed in those situations.
