DeLay=Double Hypocrite

I am sure most have you have heard (thanks to the LA Times) that Tommy's papa Charles died when his family decided to deny his father kidney dialysis since his father was in a vegetative state and had not wanted to be kept alive like that. His championing Terri Schiavo's case is bad enough.

But it gets even better when you learn that the DeLay's sued companies who made the products involved in Charles DeLay's horrific accident that lead to the vegetative state. "The DeLay family litigation sought unspecified compensation for, among other things, the dead father's "physical pain and suffering, mental anguish and trauma," and the mother's grief, sorrow and loss of companionship." This is the same guy who voted for and aggressively push caps on pain and suffering damages in Congress just this term.

One rule for DeLay, and another for the rest of us. This guy acts like the Kings of England we freed ourselves from in 1776. That gives me an idea. Instead of just playing the tape back on the "Contract with America" and comparing 1994 to 2006, Democrats should compare Thomas Jefferson's Declaration of Independence's list of grievances with those against Bush and DeLay (and Co.). Enough with the divine right of President Bush and Republican Congressional Leaders.
