Guilty or not, DeLay will walk (Joe Scarborough)
Edited on Fri Sep-30-05 12:35 PM by Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin
Way to go Scarborough. Kiss the shit off of Delay's asshole.

------------------------------------------------------------------

Let’s start my memo on Tom DeLay by killing Hamlet in the first act.

The Majority Leader will walk.

Forget whether he is guilty or innocent. Ignore the political drama. Dismiss the screeching chatter from the political classes. Toss out the dire predictions from talking heads.

Dismiss it all because in the end, Tom DeLay will be found not guilty of the charges filed against him.

Why could DeLay survive a prosecution that would destroy most other politicians?

Because above all else, he is a political fighter.

1. nice and this is the sense of we are above the law
that permeates the GOP... if and when Delay is convcted, that will bring that snse down

One thing though and Joe is right, delay is a fighter and a dirty fighter at that.. it gets worst, Delay is a man who believes HE is the US Government... and if she should walk the damage to the Republic and her system of justice will be severe for winning at any cost will be above justice

6. His prediction may come...
... to pass, but he's not really predicting so much what he thinks will happen as he is what he WANTS to happen. Talking heads like Joe believe they can influence outcomes this way.

7. Keep dreamin' Joe.
You don't know Ronnie Earle. You don't know Austin juries. You can keep pretending you know diddly, but you don't.

The Hammer is through. No matter what the verdict is, he'll never be majority leader again. The best he'll ever be is a taphammer.

You think the corporations that gave the hammer money in exchange for influence will ever give him money again?

You think the bugman will have influence apart from that money?

Dumbass.

Edited on Fri Sep-30-05 03:09 PM by Skittles
with being a political hack so over the top extreme, so low down dirty, so disgusting he truly puts his own interests above the interssts of his country
