NEW MEME: "Tom DeLay has gone judge shopping"

[Walt Starr]

"In a desperate attempt to obtain a judge sympathetic to DeLay, his attorney even went so far as to tell a bold faced lie in court about an organization the sitting judge had donated to!"

[spanone]

1. He'll try every dirty trick, hell he probably invented them.

The thugs politicize everything.

[clydefrand]

2. Is it a lie that the judge didn't donate to Moveon.org?

I do hope it is, but if he did and DeLay gets another one, I hope we can trace "his/her" contributions as well. I'm sure he'll find one that donated under the table to the repukes.

[Walt Starr]

5. The lie was that Moveon-org was sellign T-shirts with DeLay's mugshot.

So the motion for the judge to recuse should be denied on its face and DeGuerin slapped with a contempt charge.

[Justitia]

8. DeGuerin lied about MoveOn, linking the judge to a false action. -eom

[Pirate Smile]

10. The Judge didn't deny donating. He said the last time that he remembered

donating to them was back in 2004 when they were primarily working to get Sen. Kerry elected.

If he hadn't donated to Move On, I would think he would have said so.

[Justitia]

14. Yup. He just laughed & said he had never seen the T-shirt, didn't own one

[SCDem]

15. The lie was that MoveOn is selling anti-Delay t-shirts

Though there are a lot of T-shirts out there - MoveOn is not selling them.

[Walt Starr]

16. This reveals the thinking of the Reichwingnuts

Every left wing web site and Cafe Press store is affiliated somehow with Moveon.

They're certain of it because we're all part of the same Vast Left Wing conspiracy.

:tinfoilhat:

[Justitia]

18. Hee, hee - MoveOn is a big scary Borg. Don't screw w/The Borg, Hal. -eom

[Salviati]

23. Its that damn republican projection again...

Just because they all receive their pre-approved talking points in faxes from the heritage foundation, they think that the left is similarly coordinated by nebulous umbrella organizations...

[Justitia]

3. Very good. Next up: he's shopping for a favorable jury (venue change)

I'm sure that is next week....

[Pirate Smile]

4. Nice. Rush doctor shops. Delay judge shops. Scooter & Rove reporter shop.

[MADem]

32. Say...that is a really good UNIFYING message, there!!

Worth repeating, again and again and again and again....

Well done!

[wryter2000]

6. Hmmm

Who makes the decision to give him another judge? If it's this judge, and he pisses off the judge with this maneuver, it could up and bite him on the ass.

[Justitia]

11. Perkins referred it to his (superior) administrator judge, a repub

who could decide either way. Even 'tho the administrator judge is an (R), I don't see him going for it.

[wryter2000]

30. Thanks

I don't think DeLay is going to get anywhere with this. Of course, the point could be to convince his supporters that the proceedings are bogus. It would work for that. Just cloud things a little bit and give the brain-dead a hope to cling to.

[Democrats_win]

17. Looming over any judge is having a decision overturned on appeal.

So the current judge must consider the issue. I would think the judge would give it a thought and then call it what it is: BS.

Especially since Scalia went duck hunting with Cheney and then voted on a case involving Cheney. The SCOTUS is almost never overturned but a SCOTUS did overturn a former SCOTUS case on segregation about 100 years earlier.

7. And this is the man who wants tort reform?

Shimmying through loop-holes, mocking the booking process, what's next? Ordering pizza during his trial?

I read it on another thread...It's the SLAMMER for the HAMMER!

[Walt Starr]

20. He's a Flip-flopping judge shopper!

:evilgrin:

12. Digging a deeper hole ....

Tom is now considered, " radioactive." Couldn't happen to a more appropriate fellow. :evilgrin:

[Coexist]

13. ha ha! Recommended

Now if only we could here that coming from the teevee! You might want to send it to Randi Rhodes - I think she would like that - and voice it on her show.

[blm]

19. Works for me.

34. dems should sue them for slander. they are saying we aren'tr

honest or American enough to be impartial and do our job.

LITMUS TEST! LITMUS TEST! LITMUS TEST!

[ThomWV]

35. Has Anyone Notified The Judge It Was A Lie?

Has anyone notified anyone, the news media, the judge, their local radio station, anyone at all, that it was a lie? Sounds to me like the sort of thing that would make a nice "Scoop".
