The Nadir of Moral Credibility
Is when serially-indicted money-launderer Tom Delay becomes your chosen champion to debate serious issues like health care. Fraulein Konzentrationslager:
Variety reported yesterday that Moore won’t debate Tom Delay on ABC News. He was originally scheduled to debate former Rep. Billy Tauzin:
On Thursday, former House GOP leader Tom DeLay called filmmaker Michael Moore a “plus-sized publicity hound” who is “chicken” because the controversial helmer canceled a skedded appearance this Sunday on a talker to debate health care issues, the subject of his “Sicko.”
~~~
“Guess he didn’t expect anyone to seriously take him on,” DeLay wrote on his Web site. “Had I known he was this chicken. . . ”
Because, you know, Tom Delay has so much credibility on health care issues, especially after using his power as House Majority Leader to protect Marianas sweatshops which forced employees to have abortions, after coercing them into prostitution.
Oh, Tom DeLay has credibility on health care issues! Come come now…
In 1988, Tom DeLay’s 65-year-old father, Charles DeLay, suffered catastrophic brain damage and went into a coma. He had no hope of recovery but evidently reacted when his son entered the room. Although Charles DeLay had no living will, his family concluded that he would be better off dead and wouldn’t want to go on living this way. Tom DeLay joined other family members in deciding to withhold dialysis. His father died.
See? He knew that Terri Schiavo was going to get better, but not his dad, because he dad actually had a visceral reaction when he walked into the room!
She has comments now. People are there at her site, commenting - flatteringly - to MMalkin. I mean before, her blog was just a big smelly, tepid refrigerator full of barely-recognizable food, to which MMalkin kept manically adding more moldy foodstuffs. Now: All her mutant, slobbering, nutsoid neighbors are putting their own smelly food in it too. Ouch.
Thom,
This keeps them all in one place, not scurrying about the Internets on their six germ-laden feet…
That pic never cease to amuse me. If there is any justice, it’ll be on her headstone.
I’d settle for a face cake for her birthday.
