God has been talking to Tom Delay..
maybe he should hire him for his defense team...:eyes:

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.” He said that Republicans should spend their impending exile reminding themselves what they stand for. “I see this as a cleansing process, where you can return to your principles, which are order, justice, and freedom—the basic principles of the conservative movement. We have to redefine government based on conservative principles, we have to win the war against our culture, and we have to win the war on terror.”


Lots of good stuff here, Newty and Tommy tear each other to shreds...:-) :-)

3. Tommy likes order.
Tommy wants to be the one to define and impose order. Order is good, as long as Tommy approves of what that Order might be.

Tommy is working on becoming a Very Dangerous Nutbar.

5. tommy delay another comedian of the limbaugh ilk
conservative should spend their time reminding themselves of what they stand for. That's a chuckle. Here's the values you and your kind have displayed over the years tommy; lies, cowardice, crime, chicanery, fake patriotism, forced prostitution and forced abortions, war without end for no apparent reason, running up debt with no concern whatsover of that action, lying about god talking to you, and duping the large number of ignorant trash in this country. Oh yeah, tommy remember away.

6. Too bad God didn't bitch him out about those sweatshops he supported ...
or the grafts he took or anything like that.

Or maybe, like bush, he's just confused about God.

10. Ya Gotta Hit Bottom First, Bug Boy...
Rebuilding? :rofl:

Here's a designer of the Titanic...surely the one pushing to set the speed record...saying, "it's just a little leak". :rofl:

But never count out an opportunist. They'll constantly search for that opening...find the vulnerable and play on people's emotions and ignorance. The Hammer knows the moment he vanishes from the "public debate", his life support ends...the money. He's like Gingrich...totally rebuked before their corrupt party and ideology is...thus they live in this suspended animation where they are somehow vindicated by the problems that happened since their demise.

:eyeroll: Totally Mindboggling.

24. I'd like to push a "reality" TV series to one of the alphabets
Something like "Fat Celebrity Weight Loss Challenge", but with my show it would be "Old Political 'Has-Beens' Struggle for Relevancy"

Instead of having washed-up child actors all living together getting drunk and pissy with each other, we'd have folks like Delay, Livingston, Gingrich, George Allen, Katherine Harris, etc. Put 'em in a house and film it 24/7.

13. Doesn't this confirm the fact
that most republicans are not really Christians. That they only use the religious knee-jerk when they want to ingrate themselves into situation.

God does want people to not discriminate against sinners. But he sure wouldn't pick only the most outrageous evil ones to talk to and urge them to commit crimes, such as the ones, bush, rove and the rest of his "flock" have done.

19. Because high ranking GOPocons are above the laws that you and
I must live by. They are the "RULING CLASS" Gawd's chosen gangsters.

21. No, after he found jeezus, no more hot tubs..
no more martinis and no more women. You must read this article, it's hilarious. Tommy claims that his infidelity wasn't as bad as Newt's because he wasn't messing around during the impeachment hearings like Newt was, and he found jeezus...:rofl:
