Mr. DeLay: Not zealous. I blame Congress over the last 50 to 100 years for not standing up and taking its responsibility given to it by the Constitution. The reason the judiciary has been able to impose a separation of church and state that's nowhere in the Constitution is that Congress didn't stop them. The reason we had judicial review is because Congress didn't stop them. The reason we had a right to privacy is because Congress didn't stop them.

1. I'm not sure
On the contrary, it seems he wants a pure democracy: Majority rule regardless of individual rights.

That way, we get rid of the "unaccountable, evil judges."

and DeLay's out of this world ego. He even bucks the president when its to his advantage. These republicans who eat their own are truly gross. They seem to have only a self ego to guide them, no principles, no compassion.

3. DeLay is against having the right to privacy?
Pervert! Voyeur!

Does he even hear anything he says?
