sharks, roaches, and punks.

Tom Delay jumped the shark last week. The despicable congressional "member” threatened the free and independent judiciary after Ms. Shiavo died. This was after he engineered the late night constitutional coup by literally making a federal case out of a feeding tube. The result: he is sinking fast in his own district.


As a thoughtful person Delay disgusts me. No ONE thing that the right wing thugs have done since 9/11 has freaked me out. The slow, steady insurgency against civil liberties has angered me – but to be blunt – it has not scared me. I am an American Patriot. I tend to like most Americans. I get us. I am one of us. I love us. They – the right wing nuts – can only go so far when they come after us. And they know it. Using the tragedy in Florida as a political stunt was too far. And they knew it the moment the first polls came out. And they all ran for cover like roaches when the light gets flipped on. There was no principle involved. They no longer have principles. IF their had been principles involved W would have continued the fight. The GOP (Goons On Patrol) would have continued the fight despite the polls. That is what having principles means.

The American people roared back and those punks scattered. Let's keep it up.
