… but he was determined to bring all the other Sugar Land Rs down with him:
DeLay was determined to hang on to his seat at least through the primary, said Carl Forti, spokesman for the National Republican Congressional Committee. That was because he considered his three Republican challengers gadflies and traitors and he was determined to try to block them from succeeding him.
I love it. I love it!
The amazing thing is that DeLay still considers himself to be in a position to label someone else a traitor. The audacity!
An obstinate bastard to the bitter end. How surprising...
Please, DeLay has not been convicted of any crime. In fact, that hack Texas prosecuter is inventing charges against him. We are all innocent until proven guilty.
Right, Bruce. And soon pigs will fly out of my ass.
Delay quit for several reasons, the least of which was to act as a spoiler to his GOP challengers. Let's not forget, federal election law allows a sitting member of Congress to redirect campaign funds to pay for legal expenses incurred while on "official business". So, essentially, the "Hammer" got the good citizens of his district to cough up for his lawyer bills, which is probably what he had in mind from the beginning, seeing as insiders have been alluding to just such a scenario for more than four months now.
And speaking of "invented charges", let's take a look at some of the scurrilous fabrications Travis County DA Ronnie Earle has come up with (although in fairness, he can't take credit for all of these):
Delay's good buddy and K Street superlobbyist, Jack Abramoff: Plead GUILTY!
Former Delay Staff member Tony Rudy: Plead GUILTY!
Former Delay staff member Michael Scanlon: Plead GUILTY!
Former Delay staff member Ed Buckingham: implicated as GUILTY -
BY DELAY HIMSELF!
This, in prosecutorial circles is what is known as "tightening the noose". Those boys are going to squeal louder than stuck pigs outside a Kansas City BBQ joint, just as soon as the ink on their plea bargains dries. And I'll bet you dollars to donut holes I know at whom they'll be pointing their collective fingers - want to take that bet?
So, technically yes, Delay may be innocent today, but in the parlayance, "if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, and leaves a long, smelly trail of mushy green shit like a duck..."
That was beautifully said Comte.
Wow. A compliment from Cienna. High praise indeed.
