How many of you actually think Tom DeLay will see the inside of a prison cell?

[bluestateguy]

Oh you do?


That's so cute.

[Avalux]

1. Not me. That sentence was bullshit. n/t

[Old and In the Way]

2. Depends on your definition of a prison cell.

I see him doing 'hard time' at some cushy federal detention facility where he has pretty decent accommodations and perks. Certainly not the ambiance you'd get if you were some loser that got convicted of a 3rd rate burglary or some crack offense.

[Sanity Claws]

3. This was a Texas court, right?

If so, the Governor will pardon him, or at least, commute the sentence.

[TBF]

4. Here in TX? Doubtful. nt

[Pancho Sanza]

5. He's waiting for Ken Lay to send him a plane ticket

:evilgrin:

[seabeyond]

6. lol. i will wait until he is behind bars. not believing it myself. nt

[LuvNewcastle]

7. The President will pray with Rick Warren about the

situation and then Obama will release him to foster healing between our political parties.

[bluestateguy]

9. It's not a federal crime so Obama cannot pardon him

Although, Gov. Perry handpicked the members of the Texas board of Pardons and Paroles and it would be easy for him to make a few phone calls that would result in DeLay being pardoned.

[Ellipsis]

8. He can remain out of prison during appeal

...given the length of the sentence.
