I predict that if DeLay keeps pulling stunts like he did today we
Edited on Tue Oct-11-05 10:10 PM by texpatriot2004
are going to learn alot more about his business affairs and associates. Anyone else see a connection here? He was originally indicted, then he pulled a stunt and went back on his word (no surprise), he got 2 more indictments within a week. Today his "subpoena" Earle stunt and this evening 26 of his associates are written about. Hmm. It seems to me, the more he struggles and pulls these stunts the worse it will be for him. Resistance is futile DeLay.

Hang down your head Tom DeLay...new song.

6. Hang down your head Tom DeLay...
Hang down your head and cry.
Hang down your head Tom DeLay.
Poor boy you're gonna fry.

............. ok, so here is the rest of Tom Dooley for parody


I met her upon a mountain, there I took her life
Met her on the mountain, stabbed her with my knife

Hang down your head, Tom Dooley
Hang down your head and cry (ah-uh-eye)
Hang down your head, Tom Dooley
Poor boy, you’re bound to die

This time tomorrow,
reckon where I’ll be
Hadn’t-a been for Grayson,
I’d-a been in Tennessee (well now, boy)

Hang down (your head) your head (Dooley) and cry
Hang down your head and cry (ah poor boy, ah well-ah)
Hang down (your head) your head (Dooley) and cry
Poor boy, you’re bound to die (ah well now boy)

Hang down (your head) your head (Dooley) and cry
Hang down your head and cry (ah poor boy, ah well-ah)
Hang down (your head) your head (Dooley) and cry
Poor boy, you’re bound to die

This time tomorrow,
reckon where I’ll be
Down in some lonesome valley
hangin’ from a white oak tree

Hang down your head, Tom Dooley
Hang down your head and cry (ah-uh-eye)
Hang down your head, Tom Dooley
Poor boy, you’re bound to die (ah well now boy)

Hang down your head, Tom Dooley
Hang down your head and cry (poor boy ah well uh)
Hang down your head, Tom Dooley
Poor boy, you’re bound to die
Poor boy, you’re bound to die
Poor boy, you’re bound to die
Poor boy, you’re bound to .......die

19. The Bad-Assed Ballad of Tom De-Lay
Edited on Wed Oct-12-05 10:21 AM by Flubadubya
Hang down your head, Tom De-Lay
Hang down your head and cry…
Hang down your head, Tom De-Lay
Poor boy, you’re bound to fry.

I met Lady Liberty in Congress, there I took her life
Met her there in D. C., stabbed her with my knife

Hang down your head, Tom De-Lay
Hang down your head and cry…
Hang down your head, Tom De-Lay
Poor boy, you’re bound to fry.

This time tomorrow,
reckon where I’ll be
Hadn’t-a been for Ronnie,
I’d still be “The Hammer” and free.

Hang down your head Tom De-Lay,
Hang down your head and cry…
Hang down your head your head Tom De-Lay
Poor boy, you’re bound to fry.

This time tomorrow,
reckon where I’ll be
Down in some courthouse in Austin
Lyin’ to ole Ronn-ie.

Hang down your head, Tom De-Lay
Hang down your head and cry-
Hang down your head, Tom De-Lay
Poor boy, you’re bound to fry.

Hang down your head, Tom De-Lay
Hang down your head and cry…
Hang down your head, Tom De-Lay
Poor boy, you’re bound to lie
Poor boy, you're bound to fry
Poor boy, you ought to… die!

On edit: I just made this one up... I'm sure there are other versions out there. :evilgrin:

8. Tom DeLay meets his Tar Baby.

The more he punches the more stuck he gets.

It'll be fun to see Earle counterpunch him- I'll guess there will be frivolous litigation, obstruction of justice, perjury, and vexatious litigant charges. (Vexatious Litigant is a lot of fun...to watch.)

9. Yes, the tar baby is a good image for this problem DeLay has.
What is "Vexatious Litigant"?

BTW Earle will be the one left standing and I am sure he was prepared to watch DeLay struggle, fight, cajole, slither, whine, fuss, etc., etc.

12. basically, a person who files

lawsuits with inadequate merit or inadequate or offensive/abusive procedural efforts, often. It's a subjective finding, generally issued by an Extremely Pissed Off judge after many dealings and efforts at reason with the person. A few states have them, famously California.

http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qa3975/is_200107/ai_n8975976

I wasn't entirely serious. Obstruction of justice is far more likely with the likes of DeLay.

I suspect RICO will make an appearance at some point in the Abramoff-centered investigations.

13. BTW I did get the humor in your remarks : ) Thanks for the
explanation. It seems to me that DeLay is abusing the courts with his stunts but I guess the courts will decide that when all attempts at reason fail.

16. What I like is.....DeLay probably done no matter what...
From what I've read, insider Rethugs have said that DeLay is probably done no matter what. That other more "ambitious" Rethugs want his spot and won't give it up, even if he is cleared.

He might be doing all of this now to avoid a jail sentence later...

23. Yeah, my friend Mark was right about Tom DeLay
"You watch, he'll be the one Republican too stupid and indignant to shut up. It could be fun."

Every day I congratulate Mark on being more and more, well, right on the mark.
