tom delay: wit 'n' wisdom of
thanx 'n' a tip o' the hat to l.a. bassist extraordinaire doug lunn for fwding the following:
FYI. Self explanatory. Is it even possible that Bush
looks good by comparison?
The Wisdom of Tom Delay
1) "So many minority youths had volunteered, that
there was literally no room for patriotic folks like
myself." -- Tom DeLay, explaining at the 1988 GOP
convention why he and vice presidential
nominee Dan Quayle did not fight in the Vietnam War.
2) "Now tell me the truth boys, is this kind of fun?"
-- Tom Delay, to three young hurricane evacuees from
New Orleans at the Astrodome in Houston, Sept. 9.2005.
3) "I AM the federal government." -- Tom DeLay, to
the owner of Ruth's Chris Steak House, after being
told to put out his cigar because of federal
government regulations banning smoking in the
building, May 14.2003.
4) "We're no longer a superpower. We're a super-duper
power." - Tom DeLay, explaining why America must
topple Saddam Hussein in 2002 interview with Fox News.
5) "Nothing is more important in the face of a war
than cutting taxes." -- Tom DeLay, March 12, 2003.
6) "Guns have little or nothing to do with juvenile
violence. The causes of youth violence are working
parents who put their kids into daycare, the teaching
of evolution in the schools, and working mothers who
take birth control pills." -- Tom DeLay, on causes of
the Columbine High School massacre, 1999.
7) "A woman can take care of the family. It takes a
man to provide structure. To provide stability. Not
that a woman can't provide stability, I'm not saying
that ... It does take a father, though." --
Tom DeLay, in a radio interview, Feb. 10, 2004.
8) "I don't believe there is a separation of church
and state. I think the Constitution is very clear.
The only separation is that there will not be a
government church." -- Tom DeLay (date unspecified)
9) "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." -- Tom DeLay, during a
debate in Congress on increasing the minimum wage,
April 23, 1996.
10) "I am not a federal employee. I am a
constitutional officer. My job is the Constitution of
the United States, I am not a government employee. I
am in the Constitution." -- Tom DeLay, in a CNN
interview, Dec. 19, 1995.
Does DeLay makes the president look slightly less
stupid by comparison?
