The Germans have a word for Tom Delay: Backpfeifengesicht

[BloodyWilliam]

"A face that cries out for a fist in it."

I love the intricacies of foreign languages in expressing complex concepts.

To paraphrase Spider Jerusalem, "Tom Delay has a really punchable face."

NOTE: This is not a statement regarding whether or not I would punch Tom Delay in the face, or whether or not I would condone others taking such action. Rather, I am simply observing that his face could be qualified objectively as backpheifengesicht.

1. The Austrian version is

the softer sounding, but no less deadly Watscheng' fries.

2. I'll punch him for you then

given the opportunity, of course.

Sure is better than Pat Robertson's taking people "out". Tom will be lucky if a punch is all that happens to him, after all this, with him in the line of fire, and a whole world to see what a crook he is.

Say it with me now...

SCAPEGOAT

8. Careful! Hardcore double-standard with violence

Talk about punching Tom Delay on a message board: OMG, TERRORIST!

Talk about assassinating the president of Venezuela on national TV: That's not what he meant!

Talk about the president being in danger if he visits your state on the floor of the Senage: That's not what he mean!

IOKIYAR runs deep when it comes to talk of violence. *sigh*

3. I wouldn't mind...

Frankly, I think he deserves to be in the seat occupied by the woman going into hysterics in the movie Airplane! With the entire rest of the plane lining up to take their shots at her.

4. Three cheers for objective qualification!!

Hip-hip-hooray! Hip-hip-hooray! Hip-hip-hooray!

NGU.

5. Sounds like fun to me!! lol nt

[smirkymonkey]

6. That is absolutely perfect!

In fact, I applies equally to all the members of the Bush Administration. Their hideous faces just make me want to lash out violently for some reason.

11. Me too!! Everytime I see one of those smug, smirking faces on

TV, I want to put my fist through the screen.

[rwork]

7. That would make me very

Shadenfrode. I think.

9. Well, I also believe in Douchegeist.

Which is, of course, the spirit behind the platform of the Republican party.

10. It doesn't exactly roll off the tongue, but it's well worth the effort.
