THIRD TIME'S A . . . I MEAN. . . FOURTH TIME'S A CHARM
By Tweed
Republican House leaders were giddy with excitement yesterday after the House ethics committee admonished Tom Delay a record breaking fourth time, and a second time in the period of one week. "Unbelieveably, fantasmagorically A-1 production," said Representative Deborah Pryce, Chairwoman of the House Republican Conference. "I'm so thrilled to have him on our team that I get all tingly in my naughty areas."
Republican leaders spoke high praise of Delay, and were quick to admonish Democratic leaders for questioning Delay's fitness as Republican leader of the House. "What the heck do they care," said Republican Nancy Johnson. "Delay is our spiritual leader - our Maharishi, if you will. The thought of our leadership without Delay is like the thought of going to a family reunion and not meeting your nephew/cousin, or your sister/cousin," said Jeb Hensarling, R-Texas.
Republican constituents seemed to have a similar reaction. Impromptu gatherings of Delay supporters marked the day. And some, organized by Republicans became a bit boisterous, although most were peaceful.
Republicans Gather to Support Delay
Cleatus Yokum of Turnbalahoo Mississippi commented that "Don't care a snake-skins worth bout that. Tweren't fer Bush, Delay and them other Publicans, Iraq and bin Laden woulda bin marchin' up river by now, just a-killin' an a-raisin' hell."
Kim Coopersmith, of Encino California, also expressed support for Delay. "Well, I saw Nancy Pelosi on TV talking about this and I saw Tom Delay on TV talking about this and, well, I'm not gay, so. . . you know, I'm for Delay."
