DeLay is to attend with Bush an event in Galveston, Texas, on Tuesday about the president's proposals to overhaul Social Security and then will ride back to Washington with him aboard Air Force One, the spokesman said on Monday.

10. Hey, that was on The Daily Show with a color code ~ to the terror code

Too funny.:spray:

15. OK. I'm clueless. What is BFF? nt

[catzies]

22. It's "Best Friends Forever"

n/t

[LiberalFighter]

26. Maybe he is going to teach DeLay how to talk to his own hand.

[Roland99]

3. Is he going to hold TommyBoy's hand, too?

[Tempest]

4. Is he going to push The Bug out?

It would be in keeping with Bush's past.

18. (GMTA) But that'd be disposing of toxic waste. They'd have to do it ...

... before leaving Texas air space. (Unless they fly over Mississippi or Alabama.)

[LiberalFighter]

27. How many parachutes are on AF1?

:evilgrin:

[Beaverhausen]

5. all at taxpayer's expense no doubt

[Tempest]

6. DeLay's friends all maxed out their credit cards

The closer Bush and DeLay get, the more corrupt Bush will look.

[Atman]

7. And DeLay will land in Washington one flight closer to being toast.

This will be the flight in which Bush kisses his old friend on the cheek and says "sorry, I've got to throw you under the bus. It's nothing personal, my friend, but you're hurting business."

Then Scott McClellen will come out and tell us some made-up version of what they want us to think happened, as Rove ratchets up the cadence of Delay's death march.

9. DeLay's friends all maxed out their credit cards...

So Bugman has to bum a ride, on our dime. Gawd, I really hate these people.

[AlCzervik]

11. uh-oh, looks like Bush is gonna be having a come to Jesus meeting with Tom

i'm sure on the plane Rove will help with his "I'm steeping aside" speech.

[AlinPA]

12. I think this is called "hubris". They have no clue about what's happening

[SteppingRazor]

13. No surprises here...

After all, DeLay needs SOMEBODY to pay for his plane flights -- it sure ain't gonna be the congressman himself! :)

[MADem]

14. Here's what the first line of the press release will say

"In a freak accident over the heartland, one of the exit doors to the presidential aircraft flew open without warning, sucking Rep. DeLay, who was not wearing a seatbelt at the time of the incident, out without warning...."

NTSB investigating, family condolences, blah, blah, blah....

Far fetched? AbsoLUTELY! But so is this so-called gub-mint!

[UCLA Dem]

16. But I thought they weren't "social friends"???

[dave29]

17. And herein lies the GOP's problem

they think getting to ride in an airplane with the President is like getting to meet Jesus

[TahitiNut]

19. DeLay will kiss the Chimperor's ring.

(Most of us would call it a sphincter.)

[sinkingfeeling]

20. What? Couldn't Delay find a lobbyist to pay for a private jet?

[Lorien]

21. Seems to me

that KKKarl is really losing his touch! :D

[confludemocrat]

23. Bush is truly sick

Another thumbing of the nose with the middle finger at the people. His mental health is questionable. It will come out later how unstable Bush truly was (is). Just a few things have gone wrong or are in the course of going wrong and the murdering thug is being more unstable than usual these days.

We are truly in danger, so watch closely who is showing the courage to stand up and challenge the bastard openly and say what needs to be said. That person should be president and so far Reid's ahead of Dean on that score.

24. Ahhh!!! Isn't that sweet!!!

Tom your going down and don't even know it!!!

25. Hanging On To The Right Wing Of The Plane

:-)

28. Maybe he'll be an "acrobato"

Back in the 80s, the Colombian cartels were rumored to dangle potential witnesses by the neck from helicopters, circling over villages and what not to warn others that they could become "acrobatos" too. It's a nice image anyway: Tommy Boy just danglin' and dancin' while Georgiepoo slams golf balls out an open door of the plane. "Now watch this drive!"

29. Wonder whether it will fly over water? n/t
