Delay's attorney just insulted journalists! Baaaad move on his part! IMCPO
Edited on Fri Oct-21-05 10:00 AM by in_cog_ni_to
He was asked why he wanted the judge to recuse himself and he said because of what Moveon.org has on their web site against Delay. He then said, "I suggest you go to Moveon.org's web site and read it for yourself. It's something EVEN JOUNALISTS CAN UNDERSTAND." Ruh Roh! Bad move to piss off journalists by insulting them???

26. Now this attorney has gotta make lemonade out of rotten lemons.
I think Tom DeLay has got the right attorney. Like two peas in a pod, eh?

Ya just gotta kind this kind of action. Even better, is when Tommie tries to explain his innocents in the vain of justice.

6. While he was talking, did anyone else hear singing in the
background? I was watching on MSNBC. I assume that singing was coming from protesters. I would have loved to see the group that was protesting Delay.

10. It's not his job to insult them. It's our job to insult them.
But I agree, that was a really stupid move. So he tried to be funny. Notice all the laughs he got?
not one.

15. DeLay and his lame lawyer's EGO's did this press conference.
Edited on Fri Oct-21-05 10:01 AM by Pithy Cherub
DeLay used it too bash rather than lay out his case to the public. Then trashes the press who he will need to tell his story, is beyong PR stupidity, it is just crass ego. DeLay believes everybody important watches Faux New(t)s.

The republican culture of corruption marches on!

Delay is such a sorry specatcle who feels extremely bad about himself right now. :popcorn:

17. Well, don't you think he also pissed off the judge?
I know if I were the judge and a defendant said "You should recuse yourself becasue I don't think you can be fair", I wouldn't be real happy!

24. not only the judge that recused himself, but ALL judges in that court
to accuse a judge like that, that is bad news. Most judges protect their own.
regardless of politics.

23. gee and where was delay during the rethuglican attack of
ken starr on clinton????? guess delay sat that one out right??

hahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahaahhaahahahaha:wtf: :shrug: :rofl: :sarcasm:

yeah right delay...why don't we just let delay fly a homeland security plane to whatever court he chooses and pick the jury of all rethugs, and a judge of his choice...

actually ..why don't we let every murderer say they don't like the judges politics and throw out the dang constitution,,...and just have choas in our judicial system..because it doesn't suit delay??????????


ya gotta love it.,.bug man decides how our judicial system shall work...

i can't wait now till every murderer , rapist walks into a court and asks every judge..did you give money to move on??

how about the millions and millions the rethugs give to the rnc..so should every dem have a litmus test for every rethug judge?????????

so every black man or minority
charged with any crime should walk into the court and ask the judge if he is a rethuglican?????????

and if he is a rethuglican..they better recuse themselves...

what an ass delay is..he smirked and laughed...i would have held him in contempt!
i have been of 5 juries( 2 times as alternate)the judges in those cases would have held him in contempt for laughing,.i can think of one such judge in particular...

what a jerk that asshole is...let him laugh and i assure you a jury who is loosing work time and pay ..and giving their time to do this serious civil job ..will not take his laughing sitting down...

they will show him how < not funny >this case is!!
