Enough is enough

So now it turns out Tom DeLay agreed with the decision to let his own father die following a tragic accident. Conservatives are claiming this is a left wing, liberal elite, media conspiracy. But the similarities between the two cases are remarkable.

What's even more remarkable is that he made this comment last week, "Unless she has specifically written instructions in her hand, with her signature, I don't care what her husband says." Interesting since his father also did not have a living will.

Delay is beneath contempt. He personifies every vile stereotype about politicians.

"I am the federal government." - DeLay was responding to a government employee who tried to prevent him from smoking on government property. As reported in the New York Times [2003 June 13]
"Emotional appeals about working families trying to get by on $4.25 an hour [the minimum wage in 1996] are hard to resist. Fortunately, such families do not exist." - From the Congressional Record, H3706 [1996 April 23]
"Nothing is more important in the face of a war than cutting taxes." - From a speech made to bankers [3/12/03]

What a maggot

At least he's done something right! He let his father die!

Only in America. God, if we did not have our DeLays and blatant corruption by almost all politicians that goes unaccounted for, the intensity level of this forum would drop dramatically. At this point in time, I can only assume that there is an unwritten rule in Congress that corruption is a necessary evil.
