(DeLay's 'Worldview' Funded By Slippery Lobbyist)

In sixth grade, I used to play pick-up basketball against a neighborhood bully and spoil sport nicknamed Major Pick. He was called Major Pick because he barked orders like a soldier and constantly picked his butt. His team would always win because the overpowering brute would either break the rules or change them.

For example, in our game, the team that first reached 15 points always won. Unless, of course, the Major Pick's team came up short, prompting him to spontaneously change the magic number to 20 points. He would continue this charade until his team was eventually "victorious" or it got so late that angry mothers would drag their sons home to do homework.

I haven't thought of Major Pick in almost two decades, but he naturally came to mind after watching recent conservative attempts to undermine America's independent judiciary. Like Major Pick, these right wing bullies are sore losers who use thuggery, intimidation and capricious rule changes to ensure an outcome to their liking.

You scum bag, sleazy liberals want to stop our leader. You know he speaks for Jesus and he is about the truth. You hate God and you hate Tom DeLay. If you would read Scripture, you would support him. The liberals must be stopped before they destroy the USofA.

We should defend Tom DeLay because the liberal elite are after blood. They won't stop to they bring Tom Down. But we won't let them.

Wayne
you're great! You should be on Air America radio, especially now that you're living in NYC!
As for Bowzer and Trixie (are they people or dogs?) they're living proof that 'fundamentalism stops a thinking brain'.
Bowzer, you're note is filled with christian love, did you learn to call people sleazy scumbags from all that scripture reading?

Wayne,

I've taken issue with you in the past, but I have to agree with you today. Not all conservatives want to gut the constitution or destroy the independent judiciary. Of course, I'm a conservative Libertarian, not a conservative Republican. And although I'm a Catholic, I don't think God has endorsed Tom DeLay. I don't think God likes crooks very much, but that's just my opinion.

Good on ya...

We all know that Tom is only trying to get people to believe that judges are bad so that when they have to judge him he'll claim they were biased. Geeezzzz, how can you not figure that out?
