Tom Delay does not deserve to continue in DANCING WITH THE STARS
Edited on Tue Sep-22-09 07:40 PM by trueblue2007
Tom Delay is NOT a Star. He is corrupt politician. GIVE HIS YOU TUBE VIDEO THE LOWEST SCORE POSSIBLE

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_DeLay

In 2005, a Texas grand jury indicted DeLay on criminal charges that he had conspired to violate campaign finance laws during that period. DeLay denied the charges and pled not guilty, saying they were politically motivated and the law he was indicted under did not apply until later, but Republican Conference rules forced him to resign temporarily from his position as Majority Leader. However, as yet, the prosecutor has still not brought the case before a jury. In January 2006, under pressure from fellow Republicans, DeLay announced that he would not seek to return to the position. In the months before and after this decision, two of his former aides were convicted in the Jack Abramoff scandal. DeLay ran for re-election in 2006, and won the Republican primary election in March 2006, but, citing the possibility of losing the general election, he announced in April 2006 that he would withdraw from the race and resign his seat in Congress. He resigned on June 9, 2006, and sought to remove his name from the ballot. The court battle that followed forced him to remain on the ballot, despite having withdrawn from the race.

After much judicial wrangling,<1> DeLay's name was not on the ballot on election day. There were two elections for the House seat, a special election to fill the vacancy created by DeLay's resignation and the general election for the 110th Congress. In the general election there were three main candidates. Democrat and former US Representative Nick Lampson, Libertarian Party candidate Bob Smither, and Republican Shelley Sekula-Gibbs. Only Lampson's and Smither's names appeared on the ballot, as Sekula-Gibbs had to run as a write-in candidate because DeLay had previously won the Republican primary.



Give his Youtube video a low score and after watching the video give it a THUMBS DOWN assessment.

1. Tom Delay does not deserve to do any dancing outside the grounds of a federal prison.

14. It's awesome.
But you are absolutely correct -- seeing Tom Delay shake his flabby booty will make your hoo-ha snap shut, maybe permanently.

:scared:

4. There was that politicians' song from Best Little Whorehouse in Texas about
Edited on Tue Sep-22-09 07:45 PM by Ilsa
dancin' a little sidestep, versus a Texas two-step. DeLay reminds me of that tune.

Fellow Texans, I am proudly standing here to humbly see.
I assure you, and I mean it- Now, who says I don't speak out as plain as day?
And, fellow Texans, I'm for progress and the flag- long may it fly.
I'm a poor boy, come to greatness. So, it follows that I cannot tell a lie.

Ooh I love to dance a little sidestep, now they see me now they don't-
I've come and gone and, ooh I love to sweep around the wide step,
cut a little swathe and lead the people on.

Now my good friends, it behooves me to be solemn and declare,
I'm for goodness and for profit and for living clean and saying daily prayer.
And now, my good friends, you can sleep nights, I'll continue to stand tall.
You can trust me, for I promise, I shall keep a watchful eye upon ya'll...

Ooh I love to dance a little sidestep, now they see me now they don't-
I've come and gone and, ooh I love to sweep around the wide step,
cut a little swathe and lead the people on.

Now, Miss Mona, I don't know her, though I've heard the name, oh yes.
But, of course I've no close contact, so what she is doing I can only guess.
And now, Miss Mona, she's a blemish on the face of that good town.
I am taking certain steps here, someone somewhere's gonna have to close her down.

Ooh I love to dance a little sidestep, now they see me now they don't-
I've come and gone and, ooh I love to sweep around the wide step,
cut a little swathe and lead the people on.

Ooh I love to dance a little sidestep...

And, ooh I love to sweep around the wide step...

Cut a little swathe and lead the people on.

Best Little Whorehouse in Texas

9. Why even give this shit bag criminal any rating?
I'd write the sponsors to tell them I was offended by his appearance on the damn show, but I never watch it.

19. Oh man! If he thought...
...that this would be some kind of "Clinton playing the sax" thing for him... he needs some psychiatric assistance! If he had any hopes of a political future he just became a punch line. :-)

Lol... way to put yourself out there Tom.

I'll give you one thing... I sure wouldn't have had the guts to try it and it sure looks like he's been getting himself into shape.
